We are lighting the way with culture, compassion, and care.
Little Lantern Group is a people-first organization guided by the belief that every person — from every culture — deserves to feel seen, safe, and supported.
As a fully registered NDIS provider, we are proud to offer tailored, high-quality support services to individuals with disabilities. Our focus is on providing inclusive, culturally safe care that respects both the deep-rooted wisdom of First Nations communities and the diverse backgrounds of the people we serve. Our commitment to upholding the NDIS Quality and Safeguarding Framework ensures that every participant receives personalized care that promotes their independence, dignity, and well-being.
With Indigenous culture at the heart of our values, vision, and approach, we honor the teachings that guide our work while embracing the uniqueness of all cultures. We strive to provide not just care, but a sense of belonging, empowering individuals to live independently and confidently.
At Little Lantern Group, our purpose is to walk alongside those navigating life’s most important journeys — including:
People living with disabilities, empowered to lead their own lives
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, whose cultural knowledge and resilience guide our practice
People from all cultural backgrounds, who deserve services that are welcoming, safe, and free from judgment
Individuals with self-managed, plan-managed, or NDIS-managed funding
As a registered NDIS provider, we offer flexible and inclusive services for all NDIS participants. Whether you’re self-managed, plan-managed, or have NDIS-managed funding, our services are designed to support your unique needs and aspirations.
We walk with you to unlock your potential, celebrate your progress, and help you achieve greater independence — no matter the challenges you may face. Everyone is welcome here, fully and respectfully.
Founded with a vision to reimagine care, Little Lantern Group was born from the understanding that systems must evolve to truly serve people — not just processes.
Our leadership brings a lived understanding of community, trauma, identity, and healing. We’ve seen what happens when services are disconnected from culture, and we’ve chosen to do things differently.
“We are not here to fit into broken systems — we are here to rebuild trust together.”
Our story begins with listening — to Elders, to families, and to the voices that are often left out. That’s how we’ll keep growing: with humility, cultural integrity, and a commitment to walk beside our communities.
🌿 Culture at the Heart — Care for All
We proudly lead with Indigenous ways of knowing, being, and doing — and embed these principles into everything we build. At the same time, we honour and celebrate the cultures of all people, knowing that diversity is our collective strength.
Cultural safety isn’t just a feature — it’s our foundation
Services are shaped by lived experience and deep listening
Respect for language, family structure, spirituality, and story guides our approach
Every person is welcomed with warmth, not judgment
“We don’t just serve communities — we grow with them.”
Whether you’re from an Indigenous background, a multicultural family, or a new community in Australia, you are part of the story we’re building.
We are laying strong foundations to serve with purpose, integrity, and care — now and into the future.
Our vision includes:
Whether you’re seeking support, connection, or care that truly reflects who you are, Little Lantern Group is ready to walk alongside you — with compassion, cultural safety, and deep respect.
Let’s light the way, together.

By walking alongside families and communities, we support a future where cultural identity is embraced and passed on with confidence and pride.
We are grounded in culture. Growing with community.
At Little Lantern Group, Indigenous culture isn’t an addition to our services — it is at the heart of everything we do. It shapes our values, guides our relationships, and informs how we walk alongside children, families, and individuals with disabilities.
“When culture leads, care follows — stronger, safer, and more connected.”
We are a child protection-focused organisation and a provider of NDIS supports for self- and plan-managed participants. Our purpose is to provide culturally safe, community-driven care that upholds the dignity, identity, and voices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
From the beginning, we’ve been committed to building a model of care that centres country, kinship, and connection. Every decision we make reflects a deep respect for First Nations knowledge systems and the lived realities of our communities.
We Walk With Culture, Always

While we prepare to launch our services, our vision remains clear: to be a culturally grounded, trusted provider for children, families, and individuals navigating the care system or the NDIS.
As we walk this path, we carry a strong commitment to healing, connection, and respect. Because when culture is at the heart, everything grows stronger — families, futures, and communities.
At Little Lantern Group, our core values are the foundation of everything we do. We are deeply committed to child safety, ensuring every child feels protected, valued, and heard in a nurturing environment. We believe in youth empowerment, encouraging young people to grow in confidence, independence, and self-expression through learning, fun, and meaningful connection. Our commitment to ethical excellence guides us to act with integrity, transparency, and accountability in all our services. We also celebrate cultural respect, embracing diversity and fostering an inclusive space where every culture is honoured and every voice matters. Through joyful experiences, shared learning, and a spirit of togetherness, we aim to create a safe and empowering space for all children and families in our care.
We walk beside families, carers, and communities with respect and care — offering NDIS support, child and youth protection services, and healing pathways grounded in culture, dignity, and trust.
