Welcome to
Zoe’s Place Baby Hospice
For over 30 years, we’ve been caring for babies and children with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions, giving families a place to turn when they need it most. Our hospices are a home-from-home, where children are encouraged to play, make memories, and find joy, no matter their condition.
We rely on the generosity of the public to keep our doors open. Public support covers 70% of our funding, making sure we can continue providing expert care, comfort, and treasured moments for families facing the toughest times.

Who we are
Since 1995, Zoe’s Place Baby Hospice has been a lifeline for families, providing expert, nurse-led care for babies and young children with life-limiting or life-threatening conditions. What started in Liverpool has grown into a vital service across our hospices in Coventry and Middlesbrough, helping children make the most of every precious moment.
Our specialist teams offer personalised care tailored to each child’s unique needs, ensuring they can experience the joys of childhood while receiving the medical support they require. Alongside respite stays filled with play and therapy, we provide compassionate end-of-life care for those who sadly need it, as well as bereavement support for families navigating unimaginable loss.
We believe that families should never face this journey alone. That’s why we offer counselling, complementary therapies, and sibling support, helping loved ones find strength in even the most difficult times.
As a registered charity, we’re incredibly proud that all of our care is free of charge to all families. None of this would be possible without the generosity of our community, whose support enables us to be there for every family that needs us.

Working for Zoe’s Place
At Zoe’s Place, we provide specialist care for babies and young children with complex medical needs. Our hospices offer palliative, respite, and end-of-life care, giving families much-needed support while ensuring their child receives expert, compassionate care.
As part of our team, you’ll have the time to offer one-to-one nursing, sensory therapy, and tailored developmental activities, helping children enjoy life, however long that may be. Families often tell us we are their lifeline, bringing comfort, strength, and hope when they need it most.
Palliative care experience is welcomed but not essential. You’ll receive full training and support to help children and families make the most of every moment together.
“At Zoe’s place it is a privilege to work alongside some amazing children and families in a specialised home from home environment. It is a job that allows us to see the difference we make everyday.”
Tracey, Head of Care, Zoe’s Place, Coventry.
