Hospice accompaniment
We accompany and support affected families in which a child, young person or parent has a life-threatening or life-shortening illness.
bereavement support
We accompany and support affected children, adolescents and young adults who are affected by death - regardless of who died and how long ago the death occurred.
"It is important to us to help to not only give days to life, but to give the days life that can be experienced!"

The Sterneninsel is the outpatient children and youth hospice service for Pforzheim and the Enzkreis. Our 6 full-time employees and more than 30 volunteers support with respect for the living space of the family and give the closeness and affection that those affected and their environment need. We help regardless of religion and worldview.
hospice and bereavement care
The life of the whole family is shaken to its core when:
A child has a life-limiting disease
A child/teenager receives a serious diagnosis
A parent has a life-threatening illness
Nice that you found us!
During the Sterneninsel we offer a safe space and reliable contact persons so that stumbling blocks can become stepping stones again on your path of mourning
As companions, we offer an open ear
Together we develop creative solutions so that your life can feel good again
“Our team cannot relieve the suffering of those affected.
However, we can give them time!”
The work of Sterneninsel is based on the principles of the German Hospice and Palliative Association and the guidelines it represents for good children's hospice work.
