Ty Laura Short Breaks

We are Ty Laura short breaks. We offer residential respite for children and young people from 5 years old until they turn 18. We are a 5 bedroom house based in Swansea.

We pride ourselves on providing a home from home for our children and young people. Our well-equipped and peaceful setting gives parents complete peace of mind while their children enjoy a night away at Ty Laura.

The service offers a safe, caring, child‑centred environment, where every young person is supported as an individual. Children can try new experiences, build friendships, develop social and practical life skills, and enjoy time away from home in a nurturing space designed with their needs in mind. The team provides:

• A purpose‑built, accessible home, including themed single bedrooms, sensory spaces, adapted bathrooms, and enclosed gardens.
• A highly trained staff group who deliver emotional, social and practical support, guided by therapeutic, child‑centred principles.
• Opportunities to explore the community, join activities, and work towards outcomes that promote independence and wellbeing.

Ty Laura follows core principles:

• Children’s needs, best interests and welfare come first.
• Wishes and feelings are respected and listened to.
• Children are always protected from harm.

Ty Laura is a referral‑only service for children living within the Swansea Local Authority area. If you would like more information please don't hesitate to contact us.

Mae Tŷ Laura yn darparu gofal seibiant i blant a phobl ifanc o Abertawe sydd ag anableddau dysgu difrifol ac anghenion cymhleth.

Gall plant a phobl ifanc ddechrau dod i aros i Tŷ Laura pan maent yn bedair oed, hyd at eu pen-blwydd yn ddeunaw, er mwyn iddyn nhw gael gwyliau o safon o’u cartref, ac er mwyn i’w teulu gael seibiant haeddiannol.

Mae gan lawer o’r plant a gefnogwn nifer helaeth o anghenion, a’r rheini’n rhai cymhleth iawn, ac mae chwarae yn yr awyr agored yn fanteisiol i’w hiechyd, eu lles a’u datblygiad.  Mae’r ardd synhwyraidd sydd wedi’i chreu’n ddiweddar yn Tŷ Laura yn fan diogel i blant chwarae, ac mae’n helpu i ddatblygu amrywiaeth o sgiliau, fel rhyngweithio cymdeithasol a chydsymud rhwng y llaw a’r llygad.

Mae’r sgiliau hyn yn rhoi cyfle i'r grŵp yma o blant archwilio a bod yn annibynnol, gan roi ymdeimlad o reolaeth iddynt hefyd.

Pleser o’r mwyaf yw gallu cynnig llety cartrefol sydd fel ail gartref i'n plant a’n pobl ifanc.  Mae ein lleoliad heddychlon, a’r adnoddau lu sydd gennym, yn golygu bod rhieni’n gallu bod yn gwbl dawel eu meddwl tra mae’r plant yn mwynhau aros dros nos yn Tŷ Laura.
