ABOUT US

PWA Mobility was formed with the emphasis of focusing on creating products to help parents using wheelchairs, people with disabilities or the ability to be attached to day chairs, allowing grandparents to care and bond with their grandchildren.

When a director of PWA Mobility and creator of the Care Station model spoke with her friend about how she felt being a parent with a disability,                       

She had no idea what she would discover!

She discovered that parenting an active toddler for a person confined to a wheel chair had a number of limitations.

Being affected in how she connected with her daughter, her friend currently moving between a walking frame and her wheelchair was finding it difficult to cater to her child’s needs. More had to be done.

 

That conversation never went out of mind and our director set out to help her friend. She asked the simple question:

Isn’t there a device out there to help Mums and Dads to assist with their children?

Realising there was no appropriate product allowing parents using a wheel chair to interact with their child. PWA Mobility Pty Ltd was then established, creating The Care Station.

PWA Mobility's motto is 'putting parenting in reach, this translates to every parent regardless of disability. Everyone should have the opportunity to parent. 

That is why PWA Mobility focuses on products to help parents to overcome some of the challenges with caring for their child. 

The concept has been extremely well received by mothers and fathers using  wheelchairs, carers, occupational therapists, support staff, aged care industry and the disabled industry in general.

We all agree that the Care Station is a world
first that will provide the independence and confidence for people with a permanent, temporary, or ageing mobility  disability that puts caring for their infant babies within their reach.

 

 

“This world-first device is a great support for people to be able to live independent, enjoyable and full lives.  The Care Station from PWA means the joy of caring for babies and infants will be more accessible in helping parents using wheelchairs, people with disabilities or the ability to be attached to day chairs, allowing grandparents to care and bond with their grandchildren.  We look forward to continuing our support with PWA mobility to bring this device to more people around the world.”
