About LadsCare

A Gold Coast father and son team built on a simple belief β€” that great support starts with real relationships.

Meet the Founders

LadsCare was founded by Patrick and Taine Tuhaka, a father and son team based on the Gold Coast. We started LadsCare with a simple goal β€” to provide real, genuine support that actually makes a difference in people's lives.

Not rushed, not clinical, not just ticking boxes… but support that feels natural, respectful, and built on trust.

"Friends Supporting Mates isn't just a slogan to us β€” it's how we operate every day."

Our Approach

At LadsCare, we believe the best support comes from strong relationships. That's why we focus on building real connections with the people we support β€” creating an environment where participants feel comfortable, understood, and confident.

Our approach is hands-on, reliable, and focused on helping people live as independently as possible while still having someone in their corner when they need it.

We work across the Gold Coast and are always open to having a conversation about how we can help.
