About Igknight

Igknight is an Illawarra-based provider helping older people stay independent, connected, and supported at home. Whether you are planning your own care or helping a parent navigate theirs, we are experienced, local, and here for the long run.

Igknight believes ageing well means staying connected to your home, your community, and the people who matter. Support is one-to-one, at home or out in the community across the Illawarra, and shaped around what you actually need. As an associated provider for Support At Home, Igknight brings the same relationship-first approach we have built in disability support over the past seven years.

Services include domestic assistance, personal care and medication support, grocery shopping and meal preparation, transport with a support worker, social, community, and recreational activities. More than 50 local staff are matched to your needs and personality overseen by registered nurses, a speech pathologist and other qualified staff to ensure that clients receive quality care. Many people are supported with input from their adult children, and many like to direct their own day-to-day care. Either way, you deal with a consistent, familiar team. Igknight has dedicated Care Partners to help manage your needs with Support At Home Program funding.

Igknight is led by the founders and owners Fred and Janet David. Fred, Managing Director, has a strong background in community inclusion and disability support.
