Fall Family Fun

We are so excited to attend Fall Family Fun on October 26th at 6pm! This event is hosted by UF Health Neurodevelopmental Pediatric Center, located in Jacksonville, FL. Stop by our table to learn more about Tender Care PPEC and get some candy!

 

This family-friendly event has indoor Trick-or-Treating, activities for kids, and a variety of resources. It is going to be a blast! The address is 6271 St. Augustine Rd. Suite 1 Jacksonville, FL 32217.

 

The host of the fair, UF Health Neurodevelopmental Pediatric Center, educates and empowers individuals and families throughout the lifespan by providing support, assistance, and awareness within the community. Their goal is to optimize the potential of all individuals with autism and related disabilities. Their services are provided free of charge. You can follow them on Facebook.

Tender Care PPEC provides care for medically complex and fragile children from birth to 21 years of age in a daycare-like environment staffed with nurses, CNAs, and therapists. We are the first independently owned PPEC in the State of Florida with our initial center opening in 1988. This means we have an abundance of experience and knowledge in providing loving care to this special pediatric population. We have 6 Tender Care PPEC centers throughout Florida, with our newest facility located in Lake Park.

Lake Park Location

Our goal is to enhance the development of each child through collaborative relationships between families, physicians, nurses, and therapists. This holistic approach to care is carried out in an environment that allows the child to engage in social interactions with their peers. This results in thriving children, well-positioned to achieve their greatest potential. We also offer transportation at no cost and provide nutritious meals throughout the day. 

What sets us apart is that we care for and treat every child like family. We have passion in our hearts for our children and a desire to see them succeed.

We are so excited to have a table at this event and can’t wait to meet all the families that attend.

You can follow us on Facebook, TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube.
