Specializing in Bundles of Joy

Nothing is more exciting than the birth of a baby—and St. Jude Medical Center is a leader in offering the absolute best medical care possible to both mother and newborn.

Over 2,500 healthy babies will be born at St. Jude this year, each of them oblivious to the expertise and innovation around them. While our youngest patients probably won’t notice the beautiful surroundings and state-of-the-art capabilities, we're certain their parents will.

A few of the reasons why so many families choose St. Jude

• Beautifully designed and comfortable, our private rooms offer your new family the best possible start.
• Our board certified obstetricians and specially trained registered nurses are experts in helping ensure a healthy baby while creating a warm and supportive environment.
• Small details—like sunlight-filled rooms, flat screen TVs, beautiful nighttime views, and a sitting area complete with sleeper sofa—make the experience special for you and those close to you.
• To keep you comfortable during labor, we offer anesthesiologists—exclusively dedicated to our obstetric patients—who are on-site, round-the-clock.
• For high-risk pregnancies, our Fetal Diagnostic Center provides the expertise of nationally recognized perinatologists to consult with your obstetrician and help monitor your pregnancy.
• You'll also find today's newest approaches to helping newborns thrive, including innovative mother-baby bonding techniques such as our popular "Babymoon."
• If needed, our highly respected Neonatal Intensive Care Unit—staffed 24 hours a day/7 days a week by CHOC-affiliated neonatologists—is just steps away. Specialized, state-of-the-art care helps create remarkable outcomes for the tiniest of patients.
• Education and support before and after your baby's born, including a wide range of prenatal and parenting classes.
