NDIS Check-Ins: What to Know (No Need to Panic!) 📞

An NDIS check-in is meant to be a short phone or face-to-face chat with your myNDIS contact (LAC, Early Childhood Partner, or NDIA planner) to see how your plan is going and answer any questions. It shouldn’t automatically change your plan.

⚠️ However, some participants report “check-in” calls turning into unexpected Plan Reassessments.

Important tips:
🔹 Confirm at the start that the call is a check-in
🔹 You can reschedule if you’re not prepared
🔹 Ask to have a support person present — this makes it easy to arrange another time

Why do the check-in calls happen?
✔️ To make sure your plan is on track
✔️ To fix issues early
✔️ Before reassessment dates
✔️ Around major life changes (school, moving, work)
✔️ If your plan is complex or new
✔️ After enquiries, safety concerns, or severe weather events

You don’t have to continue a call you weren’t ready for!

To the parents embarking on the "Big School" transition... 🎒✨

Some of the lovely mums in our MIM Supports team have their little ones starting their very first year of school this coming week 💛

What a rollercoaster of emotions it has been — and continues to be.

We were recently talking as a team about how, as parents of children with disability, we’ve already had to learn how to advocate in so many spaces: hospital settings, therapy rooms, early learning environments. Over time, we’ve found our voice. We’ve learnt the systems. We’ve mastered it.

But now? The thought of learning to advocate in a school setting seems overwhelming. It’s uncharted waters.

No matter the amount of prep (9+ months for one of our Mums!) with the school and allied health teams, it still doesn’t feel like enough. How do you let go and trust a new space? How do we do it year after year with new teachers and leadership?

We try not to spiral too far ahead and instead stay grounded in the here and now… but golly, it’s hard.

If you are facing the transition to school this week, remember:
🫶You are not alone. These feelings are valid.

🌻 Be kind to yourself. The mental load is heavy.

😮‍💨 Exhale. Reach out to a friend for that much-needed coffee.

👏 Be proud. Look at the wonderful little human embarking on this next stage.

They are going to absolutely knock it out of the park—because they’ve had you by their side every single day, encouraging and advocating for them whenever and wherever it was needed.
You’ve got this! 💛

Meet Isabella - Support Coordinator at MIM Supports

Originally from Brazil, I’ve called Australia home since 2006. I’m happily married and a proud mum to two amazing boys, aged 10 and 4. My eldest son, Tyler, has been an NDIS participant since the age of four. Supporting him through his journey with ASD Level 2 and ADHD—without extended family nearby—has taught me resilience, patience, and determination. These experiences have shaped who I am today and fuel my passion for helping other families navigate the NDIS with confidence.

I bring lived experience, empathy, and a deep understanding of the challenges families face to my role at MIM Supports. My goal is to ensure participants receive the support they need and deserve, while empowering them to achieve their goals.

Outside of work, I love the outdoors—hiking, camping, paddle boarding, and spending time at the beach, my happy place. Family time is everything to me, but I also make time for my favourite hobby: pickleball.

Before joining MIM Supports, I worked for four years as a disability support worker, providing one-on-one care to adults living with spinal injuries. That experience inspired me to transition into Support Coordination, where I could use my advocacy skills and person-centred approach to make a broader impact.

I look forward to working with you and helping you find balance, confidence, and the right support for yourself and your loved ones.

✨ New Year, Smarter Support ✨

The team at MIM Supports is officially back online and ready for 2026! 🚀

If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably just sat down to map out the year ahead for the person you care for. Between allied health therapy, intensive therapy support, disability services, group programs, and medical appointments — it can feel like a lot.

You might be asking yourself, “How can we work smarter, not harder this year?” 💡

Maybe this is the year to reach out for a no-obligation chat. At MIM Supports, our role goes beyond managing services. We support participants to direct their own lives by building strong, resilient networks of formal and informal support that truly works for them, their families, and their NDIS goals.

Let’s make 2026 the year of balance, clarity, and empowered support. 🤝

Today at MIM we celebrate one of our little fighters — Teddy. 💛

As you turn 5, I’m constantly amazed by your determination and the strength you bring to every challenge. I’m so proud of everything you’ve achieved already.

Today also brings back the memories of when you arrived far too early, and the unimaginable fight you had ahead of you. The goalposts keep shifting, the ‘norms’ change, and none of it is easy — but as long as you keep fighting for the life you love, I’ll be right beside you fighting too.

At MIM, we’re proud to tell parents: we understand, and we see you. We’re not all in the same boat, but we share this sea together — and we will always fight/ advocate for our MIM family like they are our own.

💛 Happy 5th Birthday, Teddy.
You are so loved. Keep shining your light and laughter wherever you go. ✨Love Mummy (aka Vicky) x

Today, December 3rd, we acknowledge the International Day of People with Disability — a day to celebrate strengths, amplify voices, and recognise the importance of true inclusion✨.

It’s a reminder that disability is not the limitation — barriers are. And those barriers can be removed when communities choose to listen, adapt, and create space for everyone 🤝💛.

So what does this day represent?

It’s a global invitation to do better:

• To recognise the rights, abilities, and potential of people with disability
• To challenge stigma and assumptions
• To build accessible, welcoming communities where everyone can thrive

Here’s to a future shaped by inclusion, respect, and meaningful change 🌱
