Congratulations! We realize this is a very special time for you... and we are excited that you are considering The Birth Place at St. Mary's.

 

We can offer you peace of mind at The Birth Place... you will find a caring, highly skilled staff... and a restful environment... in private rooms that are designed to look more like a home and less like a hospital... with a family friendly, safe environment.

 

Amenities include: Afternoon Tea Service, Beautifully Decorated Private Rooms and a Lending Music Library. For your comfort we offer Aromatherapy and Hydrotherapy.

 

The "Beech-Nut café" located in the newly renovated maternity unit - The Birthplace - at St. Mary's Healthcare, Amsterdam. The café was designed as a comfortable quiet space for dads and labor support coaches to have a snack; the new space provides a place of relaxation for labor support coaches so that loved ones can remain close to moms.

 

Lactation Support Services are available throughout your hospital stay and following discharge.
