707 North Broadway
Baltimore, MD 21205
Visits are in the Kennedy Krieger playroom where children of all ages (from 3-18) gather after a long day of therapy. Many children are in wheelchairs, but that does not get in the way of lots of fun. In addition, as requested or as needed, we also visit the 3rd floor inpatient hospital and go room to room visiting each child. Visits are supervised and always accompanied.
As this can be an unpredictable environment - as any involving small children can be - a complex rating for your dog is highly recommended.
