Respite for Children
Happy kids and relaxed parents — flexible, caring respite for children with disability so you can take a well-deserved break.
Who this is for
This is for families and carers of children with disability who need a reliable, flexible break — whether that is a few hours during the day, a weekend, school holidays, or emergency care. Our purpose-built children’s respite home is designed for the safety and enjoyment of children with disability, with highly trained carers committed to your child’s happiness and wellbeing.
What we offer
- Flexible respite — from a minimum of three hours through to overnight stays
- Weekday respite that fits around school, including after-school pick-up and next-morning drop-off
- Weekend and school holiday stays so carers can recharge
- Individualised care plans built with each family
- Fun, inclusive activities — music, arts and crafts, games, and community outings
- Crisis and emergency respite care, available around the clock
How it works
- Contact us to talk about your family’s needs and arrange a visit.
- We work with you to create an individual care plan for your child.
- Book the respite that suits you — daytime, overnight, weekend, holiday, or emergency.
Can I get this?
Respite is generally accessed through your child’s NDIS plan. We are a not-for-profit, NDIS registered provider supporting carers across Sydney and surrounding areas. We also provide culturally sensitive care that respects the needs and traditions of Aboriginal families. If you are unsure what your plan covers, contact us and we will help.
