At Memorial Family Birthplace, we know pregnancy can be a magical time for moms-to-be. It can also be overwhelming – so many things to learn about and prepare for before your little one arrives. We are here to help.
Our team of maternity specialists provide comprehensive pregnancy, labor and delivery, postpartum and high-risk pregnancy care for all of our moms-to-be. We’re proud to be a part of your little one’s unforgettable birth story.
Your Pregnancy: Preparing for Childbirth
One of the best ways to prepare for childbirth is to start early and make a game plan. Expecting moms can pre-register and choose to deliver at three convenient locations in Hollywood, Pembroke Pines, and Miramar.
- Memorial Regional Hospital: 954-265-4484
- Memorial Hospital West: 954-844-7110
- Memorial Hospital Miramar: 954-538-5180
We also offer dedicated maternity care for moms and babies – including international maternity services.
While in the comfort of your home, we invite you to take a virtual tour of our birthing facilities. You can also learn about our comprehensive approach to labor and delivery, breastfeeding and lactation support options, and postpartum care.
Additionally, we offer many online classes to help you prepare as your pregnancy progresses.
