All families must be referred by their partner hospital. Please ask your child’s provider to submit a request on your behalf. Once we receive and process the request, we will call you.
Parents, family members and legal guardians of patients may stay if they are participating in the patient’s care at Nationwide Children’s Hospital or an area NICU. All guests must live 35 miles or more away from the partner hospital.
We have a special meeting space for visitors. Please speak to the front desk for more information.
We are located at 711 E. Livingston Ave. directly across from Nationwide Children’s Hospital
We encourage a $20 nightly donation. Please check with your insurance or Medicaid provider as many times these will pay for your stay. No family is turned away for the inability to pay.
Families are able to stay at the House as long as their child is receiving ongoing treatment. We ask families to check out within 2 hours of discharge or appointment completion.
If you would like to support a future family’s stay with a donation, please see the front desk. You can also visit the “give” tab on the top of our website.
Nationwide Children’s provides a shuttle for parents to main campus, BHP and OSU as a courtesy. Due to seatbelt laws, not all children are able to ride the shuttle. Shuttles are not equipped to transport patients.
