Extraordinary Care for Extraordinary Kids
We’re setting a new standard in pediatric care to heal and support your family in body, mind, and spirit.
Designed with Our Youngest Patients in Mind
A hospital can be an overwhelming place, especially for children and their parents. AdventHealth for Children, formerly Florida Hospital for Children, was designed from the ground up to be a comforting, nurturing, and immersive environment that helps ease the stress and anxiety associated with a hospital stay. With the help of Walt Disney Imagineering and input from patients, families, and clinicians, our seven-story, technologically advanced facility features a child-centered healing environment. At AdventHealth for Children, your child’s care will be handled by a highly skilled team of medical professionals who are at the forefront of research and innovation. Our priority is to do everything we can to make your child — and your family — whole again.
We’re All Here for You
Your child’s case deserves personalized attention. Your care team can be comprised of experts from more than 35 different pediatric specialties, from epilepsy and cancer to cardiology and congenital heart surgery. Our specialists provide world-class care, some of the latest treatments, and extraordinary compassion as they treat your child’s physical symptoms and support your whole family every step of the way.
