A good home gives you more than a place to live, it gives you comfort, confidence, and the right support to do more for yourself each day. Supported Independent Living, or SIL, provides help with daily life while you build skills, follow your own routine, and work toward greater independence. In Kiama, we help you explore what home support could look like for you.
We’re BB Disability & Mental Health Services, a registered NDIS provider based in Dapto, with a team bringing real experience in disability support, mental health, and social work. SIL is available to participants in Kiama, across the Illawarra, and throughout the Shoalhaven.
Maybe you’re thinking about moving out of the family home, considering shared living, or looking for support that builds your confidence at home. These decisions take time, and that’s completely fine. We listen to what you actually want from your home life and help you understand the options at your own pace.
Everyday Life, With a Little Help
SIL is about having genuine support around the tasks that feel difficult, while your own choices still shape your life. Some people need help at specific times, others need something more regular through the day and night.
How Your Days Might Look
- Starting the day: Personal care, getting dressed, breakfast, a medication reminder where that’s part of your plan, or planning what’s ahead.
- Through the week: Meals, shopping, cleaning, laundry, keeping the home organised, and working on skills like budgeting or meal planning.
- Evenings: Dinner, your own space to unwind, time with housemates, or getting set for tomorrow.
- Weekends: People you care about, community activities, hobbies, or simply time to rest at home.
SIL gives you support with everyday living while helping you build confidence in what genuinely matters to you. We’ll talk through your needs, goals, and NDIS plan in words that make sense, so you know what’s actually possible. When you’re ready, say hello or make a referral and we’ll start together.
Support That Travels With You
We provide SIL support in Kiama and across the surrounding Illawarra, backed by NDIS Registration Number 4050098162 and a team experienced in disability support, mental health, and social work. Staying close to family, friends, familiar places, and your community can genuinely matter when you’re considering a new home or living arrangement.
Alongside SIL, we also offer Specialist Disability Accommodation, In-Home Support, Community Access and Activities, Support Coordination, Psychosocial Recovery Coaching, and Short-Term and Medium-Term Accommodation. Some people need one service, others need a few working together, and we’re happy to help you see what feels right for your situation.

What Our Families Say
Choosing a home is one of the most personal decisions there is, and every word here belongs to a family who let us walk that path with them. That kind of trust stays with us.
