Why We Started Custodia™ Care
At Custodia Care, we believe that the best kind of care happens where people feel most comfortable—at home.
After many years working in hospital, aged care, and community nursing across different parts of the world, we saw one thing time and time again: people feel safer, more relaxed, and more in control when they receive care in their own space, surrounded by the things and people they love.
That’s why we started Custodia™ Care—to bring high-quality, personalised nursing support to the doorstep. Whether someone is recovering after surgery, managing a long-term condition, or simply needing a helping hand and a kind presence, our goal is to make every client feel seen, supported, and cared for in the most genuine way.
Because to us, nursing isn’t just a job—it’s a calling to serve, to listen, and to walk alongside people in moments that matter.
