Childbirth Center at Barnes-Jewish Hospital

Pregnancy is one of the most memorable experiences of your life. At the Childbirth Center at Barnes-Jewish Hospital, you’ll receive compassionate, private, and comfortable care from our exceptional team of caregivers.

At Barnes-Jewish’s Childbirth Center, you can expect quality care before, during, and after the birth of your child. Our facility offers a cozy, intimate atmosphere created to meet the entire spectrum of birthing needs from labor and delivery through to recovery and postpartum.  Our experienced obstetricians, maternity nurses and high-risk pregnancy team can care for women with all types of pregnancies.

We offer private birthing suites, therapeutic aids such as labor tubs, labor bars and birthing balls, accommodation for an overnight guest, in-room dining services, and other amenities that will make you feel right at home.

After labor, your newborn will receive the best possible care from our newborn medicine team of neonatologists, nurses and pediatricians.  If your baby needs specialized care, our Center directly connects to the expanded Newborn Intensive Care Unit (NICU) in St. Louis Children's Hospital, making it easy for moms to visit their babies. You can feel confident that our expertly trained team will provide advanced care for you and your baby.
