Cholmondeley Children's Centre
Cholmondeley provides short-term, planned and emergency respite care and education to children aged 3-12 years old.
Canterbury
When a family experiences stress or crisis, children are often the first to become vulnerable. Especially when a family's usual supports, such as friends and family, are not sufficient or not available.
Cholmondeley provides a safe and stimulating environment that supports children to enhance resilience and reduce whānau vulnerability.
We offer short term respite care for whānau with children aged 3-12. Respite care can be accessed in times of crisis, or this can be a planned stay and allows for a greater focus on well-being for everyone and is accessible to whānau through referrals.
We are approximately 80% community funded which makes it crucial we partner with the community to provide a safe haven for Canterbury children.
We are committed to serving the children of our region, and have cared for over 25,000 Canterbury children since 1925.
