REAL SUPPORT FROM REAL MATES
Social relationships can be complicated, especially for teens and young adults. The confidence and sense of belonging you build during these years helps you grow and find success in adulthood. So, it’s important you get real-life social support, not just another chaperone.
We treat every client like a friend, providing genuine social support, that helps build long-lasting connections and friendships – and we do it in real social settings in one-on-one or in small relaxed groups of like-minded mates.
After all, you want to be in the driver’s seat. Enjoy life on your terms with a pit crew who supports you to take the wheel.
My Pit Crew do exactly that.
Do the things you love
The most effective support comes from someone who shares your interests, values, goals and sense of humour.
We combine what you love doing with your NDIS goals, in one-on-one and group support settings, so you can build your confidence in the most natural and enjoyable way.
Qualified, reliable role models
We’ve had more than five years’ experience in the disability industry, but we’d rather not brag about how many clients we’ve had, because you’re not just a number to us. In fact, we’d rather keep our groups small and work with you long-term, building long-lasting friendships, with consistent, confidence-building support. It’s more important for us to share and celebrate the progress we’ve made in our mates’ lives.
Affordable & NDIS approved
As a registered not-for-profit, we’re able to keep our prices competitive, whilst still paying our disability support workers industry-leading rates. And, we provide support on behalf of the NDIS, meaning that all plan-managed and self-managed participants can claim our fees from their NDIS plan. Get more support for your money.
Meaningful mentorship
We know how important it is to have a mentor who matches not only your interests and personality – but also your age.
Our unique approach gives you the best social assistance from a mentor who is more than just your support worker – he’s a friend. You’re both going through the same life challenges and can relate to each other.
They’ll encourage you to take the wheel, so you can build your independence doing the stuff you love (without your parents around to cramp your style).
Working with the team at My Pit Crew was easy. They enjoy the work and this shows in the relationships they build with their clients. My son always felt safe around their staff and enjoyed the varied opportunities that they provided.

What does our support look like?
Our clients love to cook up a storm for friends, play video games together, go rock climbing or the gym. Our older clients love getting out into Melbourne nightlife with the support of their crew.
You get to experience life in the same way as your friends. Real, exciting and on your terms – with the support of having a mate with you, who’s looking out for you.
We’re confident that because your mentor has the same interests you do, you’ll find loads of stuff to do together.
