InLife opens new local office in Niddrie
From 5 October 2026, InLife will open a new local office in Niddrie, giving our team another base to support clients and their teams across Melbourne’s north-west.
We want our local teams to have the time, relationships and support around them to do their jobs well. The new Niddrie office gives coordinators and Client Service Managers a shared base to work together around the clients and teams they support.
Lauren Jakowenko, who's been with InLife for the last 3 years running the Ballarat local office, will become Client Service Manager for Niddrie, with Mel Doherty as Senior Coordinator and Valerie Nkala, Georgia Sotirelis and Val Gonzalez Bonilla in the coordinator team.
“Good support relies on people knowing each other and working well together. Niddrie is an area we know well, and we’re really pleased to have an office back here after a few years away. Having a local base gives our team a place to do what we do best, focus on the people we're here to support.”
David Clarke, Founder, Director and CEO
There are also a couple of changes across our other local teams. Sylvia Parizek, who's been with InLife for the last 4 years working across the Sunshine and Ballarat offices, will become Client Service Manager in Ballarat, while Agnes Joseph will join the Sunshine coordinator team. These changes also take effect from 5 October.
If these changes affect you directly, you’ll already have heard from us. If you have any questions, your coordinator or Client Service Manager is always there to chat.
InLife supports NDIS participants with frequent or often complex support needs, including Supported Independent Living (SIL), support at home and support in the community.
If you’re looking for disability support in Niddrie or Melbourne’s north-west, for yourself or someone you support, we’d be very happy to hear from you.
