Take a moment to come together as a family at the Ronald McDonald Family Room in Sydney Children’s Hospital. This special space provides a sanctuary of comfort and care, offering you and your loved ones a much-needed break while your child receives treatment. Step away from the ward and into our welcoming Family Room, where you’ll find everything you need to rest and recharge—full kitchen, bathroom, and laundry facilities, a cosy lounge and dining area, and two quiet bedrooms for catching up on sleep.
Our Family Room is more than just a place to rest; it’s a home-away-from-home within the hospital, designed to support you during one of the most challenging times in your life.
Eligibility
We believe every family deserves a peaceful retreat within the hospital, away from the clinical environment of the ward. That’s why our Family Room is free and open to all families whose children are undergoing inpatient or outpatient treatment at Sydney Children’s Hospital. We’re here to help local families find comfort and solace when they need it most.
Fees
Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, the Ronald McDonald Family Room is completely free of charge. It’s because of these wonderful contributions that families at Sydney Children’s Hospital have a place to find peace and comfort, away from the stresses of the hospital wards. If you would like to offer your support or donate goods to our Family Room, please contact our House.
