Rose Cherry’s Home for Kids

The Darling Home for Kids, originally established as Rose Cherry’s Home for Kids, is a specialized healthcare facility providing pediatric hospice and respite care. Located in Milton, Ontario, the organization serves children with life-limiting illnesses and medically complex needs. Its services include palliative care, end-of-life care, and support programs for families in a home-like setting. As a pioneer in Ontario's pediatric palliative care landscape, it focuses on enhancing the quality of life for children and providing essential relief for their caregivers. The facility was founded through the efforts of Rose and Don Cherry and was later renamed following a significant donation from the Darling family. It remains a critical resource for families navigating the challenges of caring for children with complex medical requirements.
