Who we are
Hummingbird House Brisbane is a licensed private health care facility based in the bustling suburb of Chermside.
Our purpose-built facility has been thoughtfully designed to feel like a home away from home and comprises eight guest suites, five family accommodation suites, and a number of beautiful communal spaces.
These range from the heart of the House: our dining room, to our lush backyard, bright and welcoming arts and crafts space, and warm and cosy living room. These spaces allow families to come together, just as you would in your own home, but more importantly meet and get to know each other, which can create a unique support system between families.
For families wanting a more private experience, Hummingbird House provides plenty of quiet and peaceful spaces to allow you to pause, reflect and breath. These include the personal living, dining and outdoor spaces in each of our family accommodation suites, our reflection deck and our rooftop area.
The House also has a number of spaces that cater to the unique needs of your child – our guest, such as our light and music filled multi sensory room, hydrotherapy pool, all abilities bathroom with its amazing spa bath, and all abilities backyard and playground that allow guests to connect with nature.
