A message from the owner

“My goal is to provide a safe and meaningful respite experience for your loved one.”

- Heather Hughes

"The creation of something new is not accomplished by the intellect but by the play instinct." – Carl Jung

My background and leadership roles include everything from directing and supervising respite services to hands-on management and delivery of a full range of support services for individuals with developmental disabilities.

I have 20+ years experience working for Kerry's Place Autism Services and Hopewell Support Services, as well as contracting a significant amount of work with an ABA lens for children with a variety of needs and abilities.

I am certified through the Crisis Prevention Institute as an instructor, as well as being a first aid and CPR responder. I have a BA in Sociology and Indigenous Studies.

Now, through a range of individualized services, I have created a place where parents have access to respite programs that engage their loved one in playful learning, skill-building, personal growth, fun, laughter, and a sense of belonging. My goal is to provide you with a safe and meaningful respite experience for your loved one(s) along with a break for caregivers.
