Respitality Program and Services

Respitality is a combination of respite and hospitality that provides parents and caregivers of children with complex care needs and/or disabilities a much needed break.

How does it work?

Dragonfly Pond coordinates overnight accommodations, along with gift certificates for a meal and/or entertainment, providing parents with an opportunity to relax and rejuvenate so they can return home refreshed and less stressed. Childcare is the responsibility of the parent. Respitality season runs from October to March. Members will be notified in August when Respitality opens.

Parent Testimony

"The Respitality program gave us a wonderful break. A break from the responsibilities of child raising, cooking and housework. It was a day to spend together, reminding us that we are individuals, not only parents. And finally a worry free, wake on your own terms, morning. This program gave us the first day as a couple, as people, we have had in years, and we are very grateful."
