Youth Disability Support Worker — Children & Young People | GSL: A Good Start to Life

Not every child born with a disability gets a fair start. GSL exists to close that gap — and the people who work here are the reason it's possible.

As a Youth Disability Support Worker with GSL, you'll support children and young people aged 0–18 with complex physical, intellectual and mental health needs in their home life, learning and community inclusion. You'll be a consistent, trusted presence in the life of a young person who needs exactly that — someone who shows up, holds the line with warmth, and helps them build the skills and confidence to be a valued part of their community.

This is meaningful work. The kind you'll still think about years from now.

What you'll be doing

Providing safe, person-centred care in a therapeutic home environment grounded in trauma-informed practice and strong child safety principles
Supporting young people through daily life, learning and personal growth — following individual plans to build independence, confidence and life skills
Creating a stable, nurturing environment where young people feel genuinely safe and heard
Building real, trusting relationships through consistency, empathy and calm — being the steady presence they can depend on
Encouraging community connection and social inclusion so young people feel part of something beyond their front door

You're the right person if...

You have experience supporting children or young people with complex needs and you understand what trauma-informed, child-safe practice looks like in action
You're reliable, emotionally grounded and don't rattle when things get hard
You hold or are working toward a Certificate IV in Disability Support, Youth Work or a related field
You hold a Working with Children Blue Card, NDIS Worker Screening Check (Yellow Card), current First Aid and CPR certificates, and a minimum P2 driver's licence
You hold or are willing to apply for an LCS2

Why GSL
We exist because not all children in our community have a good start to life — and we're doing something about it. Our mission is to change the perception of disability in regional communities, and every person on our team is part of making that real.

Here's what we offer the people who make it possible:

Rates starting from $46.70 + super and penalties
Flexible casual and part-time shifts - work a pattern that actually fits your life
A proper start - paid induction and supported shadow shifts before you work independently
Leadership that gets it - our team has walked in your shoes and knows what good support actually looks like in practice
Paid training including Therapeutic Crisis Intervention and The Sanctuary Model
Wellness initiatives plus 24/7 access to the Sonder wellbeing app
Access to an employee rewards hub providing savings and cashback across everyday purchases
Employee recognition initiatives, including gift vouchers and service rewards
Genuine long-term career opportunities as GSL continues to grow

Recruiting top talent for Kanda, All Plan Management, Access Support Coordination, Kanda Foundation, A Good Start to Life (GSL) & National Home Nurse - because great people build great organisations.
