The Flamingo children’s hospice will accommodate up to eight children and young people at its Fällanden site in the canton of Zurich. On a beautiful plot, close to Lake Greifensee and with a view of the Alpine panorama, families will be able to benefit from this unique offer from 2026. The children’s hospice will be a special place of support and “recharging your batteries” – with the opportunity to exchange ideas with others who are equally affected: A house where people live, laugh and play, but where dying and mourning also have their place.

The holistic care and support, combined with the appropriate infrastructure, should enable those affected to take a break from their exhausting everyday lives. This is not just about caring for the sick child, but also about the needs of the parents and siblings. The Flamingo Children’s Hospice offers a unique stay for the whole family:

holistic | supportive | unique.

The Flamingo Children’s Hospice was initiated by the Swiss Children’s Hospice Foundation.
