The Paddington Centre
The Paddington Centre
The Paddington Day Respite Centre provides social interaction and connection for people over 65. The centre offers a welcoming atmosphere for older people to enjoy a day away from home, which gives carers a break too, and to take part in our diverse range of activities.
Our staff are trained to support clients and their individual needs, ensuring clients feel mentally and physically stimulated by their daily activities.
Who we help

- Over 65
- Confirmed eligibility through MyAgedCare

How we help
We offer person-centred care in a bespoke setting, and we maintain small enrolment numbers to ensure each client receives a tailored care experience. Our thriving hub keeps seniors active and occupied, which is vital to maintain as people get older.

Our staff are trained in dementia care to ensure that all clients receive the care they need.
We offer delicious, nutritious morning teas and lunches prepared by our in-house chef.
