Hi, I am Tara and I began my career in aged care in 2019, initially joining the industry in a temporary role. I quickly discovered a genuine passion for supporting older Australians and helping people remain independent, connected and able to live life on their own terms. This passion led me to pursue a permanent position and continue building my career within the aged care sector.
Throughout my career, I have gained experience working with clients across Commonwealth Home Support Program (CHSP), Home Care Packages (HCP), Support at Home (SaH) and Department of Veteran Affairs (DVA), working in coordination roles to support clients in accessing the services and supports they need.
I am passionate about providing person-centred care and believe that every client deserves to feel heard, respected and valued. I take the time to understand each person’s individual circumstances, preferences and goals, and I enjoy building genuine relationships with clients, their families and support networks. My own personal experiences as a carer have also given me a deeper understanding of the challenges that can come with caring for someone. This experience has strengthened my compassion and empathy and allows me to approach my work with understanding, patience and genuine care. I am proud to be part of the aged care industry and look forward to continuing to make a positive difference in the lives of the people I support.
I bring a strong background in aged care coordination, with experience supporting clients across Commonwealth Home Support Program (CHSP), Home Care Packages (HCP), Support at Home (SaH) and Department of Veteran Affairs (DVA).
My expertise includes coordinating personalised services, supporting clients to navigate the aged care system, and working collaboratively with families, carers and service providers to ensure each person’s individual needs and goals are understood and respected.
I am particularly passionate about person-centred care, client advocacy, independence and quality of life. I pride myself on building genuine relationships with clients and approaching every interaction with compassion, empathy and understanding.
My personal experience as a carer has also given me a valuable perspective on the challenges faced by individuals and families, strengthening my commitment to providing support that is not only professional, but genuinely caring and understanding.

“Grace speaks very highly of her support worker Sam and is really enjoying her supports with Sirv, due to the great match the managing partner, Samantha Lovett, has provided. Grace said she thinks that the supports are going well because Samantha took the time to match her with a support worker that would work well with her. Please thank Sam for doing an amazing job and having a positive impact in our participant’s life!”
“Bron brings a wealth of knowledge to her role as Managing Partner with Sirv. Her passion to assist NDIS participants to live a full and meaningful life is clearly demonstrated by her dedication and quick-to-solutions attitude. Aided by her years of experience, Bron demonstrates person-centered practices and a holistic approach to NDIS supports and services. As a local Support Coordinator, I have the upmost confidence in referring the people I support to providers like Sirv.”
“Sirv is the best service provider I have encountered. Others tried but gave up. Many thanks to your team of workers for making a big difference!”
“I wanted to provide some positive feedback on the Sirv support staff at the residence at Towradgi (…). All of the staff are friendly and professional whenever I attend the house.”
“Matt (Sirv staff) engages with Trev (participant) in a friendly and kind manner and has taken the time to get to know Trevor's interests. He connects with him on his level, never condescending or frustrated by communication challenges. Matt went above and beyond by customising Trev’s iPad communication app, a task typically handled by a speech therapist, to help him connect more easily with house staff.”
“Yasmyn's communications with Trev along with her openness and kindness make her an excellent support for Trevor. Her genuine concern for Trev after he received the news from myself that his only sibling (his brother) had passed away overseas was reassuring for me to see. She knows Trevor well and treats him with dignity and respect.”
“Since working with Sal, our daughter has not only reduced her meltdowns but is now making eye contact and using words to express frustration. It’s changed our family dynamic.”
“The connection-first model gave me tools to build trust with my students. Our class culture has shifted dramatically.”
“Bettina is fantastic – thank you so much... Hunter honestly had the best day yesterday, I feel like crying as it’s been very challenging in finding the right fit for him!”
