What is respite care?

A short-term arrangement for a child to be cared for by a respite carer. A respite carer is someone who cares for your child like they would their own while you take a break to resolve issues you are facing.

Sanctuary Care caters to newborn infants and children up to the age of 8. Our arrangements last up to 90 days and is dependent on the needs of the family.
