Labor and delivery services we offer
Our compassionate birthing specialists are dedicated to helping make your baby’s birth extraordinary, providing personalized care so you can focus on creating memories that last a lifetime.
Dedicated obstetric care
As part of our commitment to providing exceptional women's services, we have obstetrician-gynecologists (OB/GYNs) on-site 24/7. We will care for you from the time you check in until your personal physician arrives, staying in contact with your doctor about your progress.
Working together, our entire maternity team is dedicated to ensuring a safe and comfortable labor and delivery experience for you and your baby. Should a cesarean section (C-section) birth be necessary, our dedicated operating room is located in the Family Birthing Unit.
Birthing suites
When the big day comes, you and your family will check into one of our beautifully appointed private birthing suites, where you will stay until you and your baby go home. Each suite offers all the medical technology you and your baby may need for a safe delivery.
These suites are also comfortably furnished with you, your baby and your family in mind. Our goal is to help you feel at home throughout your stay, so we offer a variety of amenities, including:
- Accommodations for a guest to stay overnight with mom and baby
- Celebratory meal after delivery for new parents
- Complimentary online streaming service
- High-speed Wi-Fi and 55-inch smart TV
- Refreshments available around the clock to accommodate special meal requests

Maternity classes
Our team includes experienced perinatal nurse educators who teach maternity classes. We offer a variety of childbirth and newborn care educational classes for the whole family, including siblings.
Postpartum care
Our Family Birthing Unit provides a nurturing environment to support your family in bonding with your baby following delivery. We practice rooming-in and skin-to-skin care immediately following birth and offer personalized breastfeeding instruction, if you'd like.
Postpartum depression support
Pregnancy and birth are wondrous and lifechanging experiences. Even so, many women experience the "baby blues" after birth, which may be described as feelings of sadness and fatigue. However, if these feelings last for more than a short time, it could be postpartum depression.
If you feel you may have postpartum depression, you're not alone. Postpartum depression is common. In fact, about one in eight women report having postpartum depression symptoms.
We recommend talking with your OB/GYN or nurse if you experience postpartum depression symptoms. Our team prioritizes helping you get the support and resources you need to feel better. Seeking help is the first step to feeling like yourself again.
