We never promise what we can’t deliver. For over 35 years, Esse Care has supported seniors as a family-run business. We believe in honesty, reliability, and tailoring our attention and time to each individual.

We get it—unfortunately, there are many bad actors in this industry, and we hear stories like yours all too often. We’re not perfect, but we’re seriously reliable, responsive, and we give a damn. We’re happy to earn your trust at your pace and let the supports and our efforts speaks for themselves.
Changing providers doesn’t have to be stressful—we help people with this every week. All you need to do is email your current provider with a formal notice to discharge (most have a 14-day notice period). In the mean time, we will organise a visit to your home, assess your current care needs and existing supports, and plan a smooth switch with zero disruption to your services.
Absolutely. Our team of nurses and care workers have been supporting seniors with these conditions for over 35 years—most of them are from residential aged care backgrounds. We know the small things matter, and we bring patience, consistency, and genuine understanding to every visit. This isn’t new to us—it’s what we do best.
At the moment, we only support clients on a Support at Home Package/Home Care Package, so we’re not able to work with CHSP-funded individuals.
That said, if your care needs have changed since your last assessment, it might be worth giving My Aged Care a call. They can review your situation and may transition you to Support at Home —which would open the door for us to support you properly.
Yes, we do. If you’ve already got your own trusted support workers or suppliers, you’re welcome to bring them along. You stay in control, and we handle the admin behind the scenes to keep things running smoothly.
No worries—it’s easier than you think to get started. Just give My Aged Care a call on 1800 200 422. They’ll talk you through the eligibility criteria and set up an assessment for you. Once you’ve received a Support at Home Package, reach out to us—we’ll take it from there and help you get the right supports in place.
We’re based in Tullamarine and proudly support clients across all of Melbourne. You’re also very welcome to drop by and say hello in person!

Whether you’re nearby or a bit further out, chances are we’ve got you covered.
There are no hidden fees with us. We’ll walk you through exactly what’s covered, what (if anything) comes out of pocket, and how your funding is best used before you sign anything.
The cost of supports depends on whether you manage your own supports with your own workers (Self managed) or prefer that we manage them with our workers (Provider managed).
For self management, we only charge 10% on top of what your workers charge. If you are looking for provider management, we charge according to our standard price guide. Contact us to learn more.
If something doesn’t feel quite right, you’re not alone—and you’re not stuck. We understand that care is personal, and sometimes it takes a little adjustment. There’s no pressure or awkwardness—we’ll work with you to explore a better fit and can arrange for another team member to step in. It’s all about making sure you feel comfortable, safe, and supported.
All our care givers and nurses are thoroughly vetted, hold a current police check, and possess a minimum Certificate III in Aged Care or a relevant qualification.
We respond to enquiries within 1 hour during business hours (Monday – Friday, 9am – 5pm). If you contact us outside of these hours, we will reach out to you first thing the next morning.
To refer a client, you can:
It means exactly what it says. Whether it’s a physiotherapy session, a support worker helping with personal care, or a cleaner coming in — your very first session is on us, completely free of charge. Applies to sessions up to 2 hours.
Before that first session, we’ll still need to do a quick onboarding visit to meet you, sign your service agreement, and organise your care plan — this just makes sure everything’s set up properly as we need to meet Aged Care guidelines as an Approved Provider. Once that’s done, your first session is free.
Just let us know when we call that you found us through Google Ads to claim this offer — that way we can flag it with our accounts team to waive the charge for your first support. Please note this offer does not apply if you choose to self-manage your supports.
