Our Story
Tender Care Transport was born from a deep commitment to providing our communities with compassionate, dignified, and respectful support. Peta, our caring owner and operator, brings a deep passion for supporting others through every stage of life. With years of experience in early childhood and aged care, she’s walked alongside individuals and families in roles like community support, lifestyle coordination, and case management. Her gentle approach and genuine dedication shine through in everything she does. Her philosophy is simple yet powerful: meaningful relationships and genuine connection are the cornerstones of wellbeing.
At Tender Care, we don’t just offer transport, we offer trust, warmth, and a sense of family.
