Best Answer

There are some places in West Philadelphia and all over the city; it just depends on how old your child/the child in question is.

The website of the Community Legal Services of Philadelphia offers the following, although it doesn't specify if this is applicable for children with Down syndrome:

Short term childcare (sometimes called "respite care" or "crisis nursery") is available through a few different agencies in Philadelphia.

The programs are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week and may be utilized by families for up to 30 days. Respite may be planned in advance (such as for a scheduled hospitalization) or used during an emergency.
