Who we are

Uplift Australia was born from a shared vision between Aimee and Jaden, two dedicated and experienced local carers from Adelaide. Having worked extensively in the support services sector, they recognised a need for a more personalised, compassionate, and high-quality approach to care. They both shared a common aspiration: to create a service that truly understood and met the unique needs of individuals, going beyond the standard offerings.

Driven by a passion for empowering others, Aimee and Jaden founded Uplift Australia with the commitment to deliver top-tier care services that make a genuine difference in people's lives. We're proud to be a small, privately owned business, which allows us to maintain a strong focus on individualised support, clear communication, and building trusting relationships with every client and their family. Our mission is simple: to uplift lives by providing the best possible care, tailored just for you.
