About Us
While Sand & Sage Living is newly established, the experience behind it spans years of hands-on care, formal study, and dedicated work in the disability and support sector. This business was built on lived experience, professional training, and a genuine commitment to quality care.

Meet Nicky, Founder of Sand & Sage Living
At the heart of Sand & Sage Living is Nicky, a warm, compassionate, and genuinely people-first support worker who brings both professionalism and personality into everything she does.
​
With a natural ability to connect, Nicky has spent years supporting people across a wide range of needs, life stages, and circumstances. From early support roles through to more complex care environments, her experience has shaped a deep understanding of what good care should actually feel like.
​
She has worked alongside individuals living with physical disabilities, neurological conditions, autism, and mental health challenges including providing support in more complex behavioural and psychosocial settings. This has given her a well-rounded, adaptable approach, grounded in patience, respect, and empathy.
​
But what truly sets Nicky apart isn’t just her experience, it’s how she shows up.
​
She is known for being bubbly, down-to-earth, and easy to talk to, creating a space where people feel comfortable, respected, and genuinely supported. Whether it’s assisting with daily living, building confidence, or simply being a consistent and friendly presence, Nicky brings care that feels personal, not clinical.
​
Outside of her support work, Nicky is also a marriage celebrant. a reflection of her love for people, connection, and being part of meaningful moments in others’ lives.
