«WE MUST REPLACE SOLITARY ACHIEVEMENT WITH COLLECTIVE SUCCESS»  Albert Jacquard

"It is in this spirit that we care for children and we try to meet the many challenges day!” Pre Barbara Wildhaber & Pr Valérie McLin, the two managers of the Center. 

Parents, pediatricians, coordinators, doctors, nurses, donors and many internal and external partners: every  link in the chain is essential to take care of children attending the Center.  It is all together, hand in hand, that we can heal and continue to be the center of reference that we are. On behalf of the children, we would like to warmly thank you all.
