Baptist Health delivery hospitals offer a family-friendly environment with deluxe suites for labor and delivery. These suites are furnished with a variety of quality amenities to create a comfortable birthing experience for both mom and baby.
Our maternity services focus on providing the utmost comfort and care for parents and newborns. Our highly-skilled physicians provide the latest in obstetrical care and work closely with the hospital’s anesthesiologists to provide expectant mothers with the most appropriate pain management options. At our Little Rock location, we offer one of the state’s most advanced Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) that allows parents to check in on their child’s care 24/7.
Through our Baby-Friendly Designated Hospital initiative, we support new mothers by giving them the information, confidence and skills necessary to successfully breastfeed their babies. In cases where our patients have a medical indication or have made an informed decision to use formula, we offer information on the safe preparation and feeding of formula.
At Baptist Health, we offer a variety of resources for expectant and new parents alike. Through educational guides, birthing and parenting classes, hospital tours and maternity literature available through our BHealthy Blog, our patients are able to fully prepare themselves for the arrival of their new family member.
