Our Programs and Impact - Carer Escapes

Our Impact

At Carer Escapes, we believe every carer deserves to feel seen, heard, and truly supported. Through our unique wellbeing retreats and strong partnerships with leading organisations, we create safe spaces where carers can pause, reflect, and reconnect with themselves and others.

Our retreats are more than just a break, they are a turning point.

Carers leave feeling empowered, inspired, and equipped with new tools and friendships that continue to support them long after the retreat ends. Many go on to access further services, embrace peer support, and build lasting connections that enrich their caring journey and overall wellbeing.

Testimonials

Carer Escapes (Claudia and her staff) have made a tremendous impact to the well-being of my mother and my family. I have also witnessed similar for other families caring for persons with complex needs. This organisation is authentic, professional and highly ethical. They have taught my mother and I a lot about ourselves, the importance of connection outside of the caring arrangement, managing stress, emotions and anxiety and provide real practical and engaging solutions for doing so. I can't thank you enough Claudia for everything you have done.

Julie

Thank you so much Claudia for the wonderful experience of your Carer Escape at the Blue Mountains. My body is feeling healthier, and my mind is so much more balanced. The retreat came at the best time when I needed it the most. The fact that I could withdraw from the strains of everyday life assisted me so greatly. It was so wonderful to connect with people who share a similar life to myself and everybody at the retreat were simply wonderful caring and loving people.

Louise

Claudia, Tracey, Kim and the team are very accommodating and understanding. They are facilitators that fill your cup!

Leah

Everyone must try this lifetime experience. I am not saying it just because of the scenic views and good workshops, these elements are certainly there but one thing that you won't find it elsewhere, is the spiritual and genuine soul connection. So energetic, relaxing delightful retreat. Hats off to Claudia, Tracey and Emily. It is 100% worth a try. Do not miss it out as there is nothing like it. Amazing experience, something I very desperately needed. I am so grateful to Claudia and Tracy for giving me the opportunity to fill my jug!

Sanam

A much-needed break for my wife and I to pause our Carer responsibilities and look after ourselves for a weekend. Great initiative by the organiser Claudia. Will definitely be back again.

Brad

Claudia and her team are amazing at understanding carers and what we need. I was very impressed with the sessions at the retreat as they made me more positive and revived. After attending the retreat I've made some lifelong friends and learnt skills to help me cope daily as a carer. Highly recommend this program to all carers!

Teeny

Amazing people. Very good experience. I was connected to other people and felt as part of a community. Good to know that I am not alone.

Suzan

he retreat I was emotionally, physically and spiritually fulfilled and renewed. Spending time with like-minded people that really understand your carer role was such a comfort. I took away so many tools and strategies that will really help. I am truly grateful for the experience.

Janet

It was such a beautiful relaxing retreat. We laughed heaps 😀 - chatted, danced, relaxed in nature, and learnt new skills. Drumming or music in general had always been my "Escape" to this inner happiness, took me to another world. I love music and singing. Thank you, Claudia, Tracey and Emilie, and all carers for this wonderful time together.. I hope to see you again.

Iman

My time away was the perfect retreat to give me headspace and refreshment. Claudia and her team did a great job at welcoming the group, acknowledging and respecting our different backgrounds and providing a variety of activities. One night away was all I could manage with a young family, but it was just right for our family circumstance in this season of life. I will be coming back again (and maybe bringing my hubby, he’d love to have a hit on the golf course).

Lorelle

I recently attended one of the carer retreats. It was a great atmosphere, the people were friendly and inviting. I had a great time and learnt a lot of new strategies to help me in my caring role. I also left feeling refreshed, happy, and confident - I can't wait for my next retreat! This time around I enjoyed the Tai Chi the most and learnt to hug myself and love myself, telling myself good affirmations each day and walking bare foot each day out in the grass to keep me grounded.

Elisha

Awesome staff, great vibe, great energy, awesome experience. I highly recommend Carer Escapes!
