The Birthplace
At The Birthplace at Sonoma Valley Hospital, we pride ourselves on offering the most personalized and attentive care an expectant mother and her loved ones can hope to find. From early pregnancy through to delivery and departure for home, we offer a variety of prenatal education programs to help prepare expectant families to welcome their newest member.
Once admitted, mothers-to-be enjoy private rooms with complete fetal monitoring services that allow our staff to keep tabs on their baby moment-by-moment throughout the labor and delivery process. Highly trained obstetrical nurses will be either in the room or just steps away, and specialist physicians are within minutes away 24 hours a day. We have a great team including certified nurse anesthetists available 24 hours a day that provides epidural services for women who request it.
With our personalized care, we make it possible for mothers to room in with their babies, and also have a well-earned rest, with our nurses and support staff always eager to assume baby-holding duties. In addition we offer a special “Families First” program of in-home guidance and support for new families. This includes up to three home visits by nurses who offer guidance and support for new parents over the course of their baby’s first year.
