About Guiding Fox
At Guiding Fox, we’re here to do things better – for people navigating the NDIS.
Melanie, Sarah, Emily and Rebecca are the founding partners (our founding foxes) of Guiding Fox — united by a shared belief that people navigating the NDIS deserve better support.
We started Guiding Fox because we care deeply about the work we do and the people we support. We believe everyone should have access to fair, safe and inclusive services, meaningful employment, connection to community, and the parts of life that bring joy.
Together, we bring experience across the healthcare and disability sectors, shaped by both professional practice and lived experience of disability and friendship.
The fox symbolises adaptability, intuition and intelligence — qualities we believe are essential when navigating complex systems. It reflects our commitment to being resourceful, thoughtful and steady alongside you through every challenge.
Our Mission
Guiding Fox is a Perth-based NDIS service provider and consultant supporting participants, families, and providers across Western Australia. At Guiding Fox, we’re here to make the NDIS feel clearer, more human and achievable.
We help people with disability, their families, and providers find direction, make confident choices, and reach their goals.
Our role is to walk beside you — offering honest advice, genuine support, and practical solutions that make life a little easier and a lot more empowering.
Our Values
Honesty & Integrity
We do what’s right, not what’s easy. You can count on us to be open, transparent, and guided by genuine care in every interaction.
Empowerment Through Understanding
Knowledge is power. We take the time to explain your options clearly, break down complex systems, and support you to make confident, informed choices.
People First, Always
No two journeys are the same. We listen carefully, adapt our approach, and provide support that reflects who you are and what matters most to you.
Better Together
We believe strong outcomes come from strong relationships. By working collaboratively with participants, families, professionals, and communities, we help create lasting, meaningful support networks.
Pride in What We Do
We’re committed to doing things well. We hold ourselves to high standards, reflect on our practice, and keep learning so we can provide the best possible support.
Kindness in Action
We lead with empathy, respect, and compassion. Small acts of kindness matter — and they make a real difference in people’s lives.
How We Support You
Every NDIS journey is different. At Guiding Fox, we provide personalised support, clear guidance, and practical solutions to help you navigate the NDIS with confidence — without overwhelm.
Expert NDIS Navigation
We guide you through every stage of the NDIS — from understanding your plan to knowing what supports you can access. We break down complex information so you can make confident, informed decisions.
Personalised Support Coordination
Your support should fit you. We tailor support coordination to your individual needs, connect you with the right providers, and help ensure your NDIS plan is working effectively toward your goals.
Trusted, Independent NDIS Advice
Receive honest, up-to-date guidance from experienced NDIS professionals who genuinely care about your wellbeing. We focus on what’s right for you — not one-size-fits-all solutions.

“We cannot speak highly enough of Melanie from Guiding Fox.
Melanie is an exceptional support coordinator who truly knows the NDIS back to front.
Her knowledge, skill set, and deep understanding of the system are second to none.
From the very beginning, Melanie took the time to genuinely understand our son, his needs, and our family’s goals.
She advocated fiercely and professionally on our behalf and successfully secured an amazing plan that has already made a life changing difference for our son.
What sets Melanie apart is not just her expertise, but her heart. She is compassionate, responsive, organised, and always one step ahead.
Navigating the NDIS can feel overwhelming, but with Melanie guiding us, it felt empowering and clear.
We are beyond grateful for her dedication and support and would recommend Melanie and Guiding Fox without hesitation to any family wanting a support coordinator who truly cares and delivers outstanding results.”

“Moving to the Peel region, I had very little knowledge of the NDIS and thought my son’s plan was good until I met Melanie.
Her honesty, expertise, and guidance completely changed our lives.
Thanks to Melanie, my son now has the funding and supports he truly needs to thrive, from communication and emotional regulation to independence in the community.
She not only helped my son reach incredible milestones, but also gave me back the ability to have a career and a life beyond caring 24/7.
We honestly wouldn’t be where we are today without her.
Thank you, Melanie, you’ve been life changing for our family.”

““I’m a mum of two kids on the NDIS system.
Previously, I had been thrown around the system with little to no help, which left me not knowing where to go.
In February this year we found Helen from Guiding Fox and there has been no looking back.
Helen has done everything she possibly can to help guide my family through our plan and work out what’s best for us.
I would highly recommend her and Guiding Fox to anyone.”
