We specialize in providing skilled nursing care for medically complex and fragile children, from birth to 21 years of age, in a daycare-like setting. Our facilities are staffed with nurses and therapists who have a passion to see our kids succeed.

Our goal is to enhance the development of each child in every aspect possible, through collaborative relationships between families and staff. This holistic approach to care is carried out in an environment that allows the child to engage in social interactions with their peers, meeting not just physical and medical needs but also their social and psychological needs as well. The result is thriving children,well-positioned to achieve their greatest potential.
