Konnect Em Services Pty Ltd., we are a registered NDIS service provider, based in Cairns. I am excited to embark on this new journey. Although new, I have a strong team of dedicated and experienced workers who have been in the industry for quite some time who share the same passion as I.
My background is in child protection and behaviour support practice in NDIS. I have a Master’s in Social Work, Graduate Certificate in Human Services Management, and a Bachelor’s in Business – HRM.
I am originally from Papua New Guinea (PNG) and have been in cairns for the past 23 years.
In saying this, I’m proud to say that majority of my team are from PNG and are hard workers and are passionate about the helping and caring work and services they provide. They believe that it’s important to connect with the participant and truly deliver work from the heart in a consensus and collective way.
Our motto that describes the guiding principles of the company, derives from the ‘Motu’ language of Papua New Guinea; Bahetura, Baheduru, Bahavaraia.
Bahetura means ‘relationship’ – We believe it is vital to have a good relationship with the people we support. Having good relationships creates respectful friendship and connections that help to inspire positive outcomes and builds trust that allows our participants to have the confidence to count on us. We honour these qualities in our services by strongly incorporating good relationship traits of awareness, empathy, communication, dependability, accountability, and honesty.
Baheduru means ‘support’- It takes courage, faith, and confidence for one (worker) to be patient enough to provide care services for an individual in need of support to help them achieve their goals, especially in the disability sector. We believe this plays a big part in social change and growth when we deliver support services with care, integrity and congeniality that promotes equal opportunity to help build a sense of confidence in people as they cultivate a sense of belonging.
Bahavaraia means ‘success’ – We pride ourselves with the quality of services we provide in caring for our participants and successfully meeting their short and long-term goals. We do this with a holistic approach in considering their physical, emotional, social, and spiritual wellbeing. We promote a culturally safe and appropriate practice standards to our First Nations people and the Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) background people and celebrate with them the small and big wins. However, our services are tailored around a person-centred approach that promotes the client’s best interest, choice, and control on how, where and when they want to achieve the best outcomes through a collaboration effort.
Services we provide include:
Assist Access/Maintain Employ
Assist-Life Stage, Transition
Assist Personal Activities
Daily Tasks/Shared Living
Innov Community Participation
Development Life Skills
Household Tasks
Participate Community
Therapeutic Supports
Group/Centre Activities

The Maxima difference – for us, it’s all about building relationships. Our SLES program is created to provide an individual and holistic approach, tailored to each person’s unique needs and style. We work on a 1:1 basis and walk beside our customers to build their skills and confidence to achieve an end-goal of employment.
Whether it’s working on time management, body language, workplace behaviour or conflict resolution, we’ll customise a program to specifically target skills to help a person start a job and keep it!
Doing meaningful work that you enjoy can be very rewarding and satisfying –but it also has many other benefits, such as creating new friendships, building your confidence and earning your own money to spend on activities you enjoy.
We’ll consider your career goals, your abilities and skills, and we’ll also explore which jobs and industries most interest you – and we’ll work with you to build your capacity for work.
We’ll use our networks and consultants to find – or create – the right job opportunities for you, including relevant work experience openings. At Maxima we focus on your abilities, not your disabilities.
SLES is available to NDIS participants from the end of year 11, and for up to two years. An NDIS participant could have SLES available in their plan right up to the age of 22. This means our Cairns consultants can not only set a person up for job success, but also see them through for a meaningful start to a career.
