Supporting Independence, Your Way

Hi, I’m Diamond - the person behind Saltbush Connections. I’m an independent support worker with a lifelong passion for helping people feel understood, supported, and empowered in their everyday lives.

​

My journey into disability support started early. Growing up alongside siblings with cerebral palsy and autism, and watching my Nanna advocate for my Aunty. I spent years attending appointments, learning how to advocate, and being part of their care. Those experiences shaped who I am today: patient, compassionate, and deeply committed to supporting people in ways that feel respectful and meaningful.

​

Outside of work, I’m a big believer in balance and joy. I’m a proud pet mum to two dogs and a cat who are thoroughly spoilt and keep life entertaining. I love baking (a skill passed down from my Nanna and my Pop), getting outdoors with our dogs, going camping, and enjoying anything from a quiet night in to a spontaneous adventure. I’m also a crafty person always making something, whether it’s (trying) to crochet or trying out a new project.

​

Family is a huge part of my life, and spending time with my younger brothers, nieces, and nephews is something I treasure. Those connections remind me every day why I do this work: because everyone deserves support that feels genuine, flexible, and centred around their goals.

​

Saltbush Connections is my way of bringing all of that together, my experience, my values, and my belief in supporting people to live life their way.
