When your family is about to grow, plan to attend pregnancy, childbirth and newborn care classes. Sign up for education classes to help you and your partner understand prenatal, birth and newborn information.

Personalized Care & Comfort During Labor

Private birthing suites provide the latest labor and delivery technology in a comfortable environment. Suite features include:

  • Large, all-in-one room that allows you to stay in the same location for labor, birth and postpartum care
  • Private bathrooms with large tubs
  • Sleeper sofas for your partner

Pain Management Choices

You have several options to manage pain during childbirth. You can choose between drugs and natural methods. Nitrous oxide (laughing gas) can help you relax and feel less pain. Other choices include epidurals, pain medications or techniques like breathing exercises. Let us know your preferences, and we'll help you find the best way to cope with labor pain.

Safe, Family-Centered Unit

Rest assured our unit has a modern security system to keep your baby safe. Feel peace of mind while focusing on bonding with your newborn and sharing your joy with family and friends during short visits.

NICU Telehealth Services

Most babies go home within a day or two after you give birth. But some infants need a bit more care. Should that happen, your baby’s care team has a partnership with St. Cloud Hospital for neonatology services, which they can access through telehealth services 24-hours-a-day, allowing your baby to stay closer to home and family.
