How to have your baby at Sharp

Only the best care for you and your baby

Caring for a NICU baby takes more than a team of compassionate clinicians ― it also takes you. That's why we involve family every step of the way. Visiting hours are 22 hours per day, ensuring you'll be there when you need to be. And we encourage parents to participate in kangaroo care ― a form of skin-to-skin contact that encourages bonding and interaction, and which has shown to promote an early release for premature infants.

We know what your little one needs. We are doctors, nurses, lactation specialists, nutritionists, physical therapists and respiratory care practitioners. And we're all working together to help your baby heal.

Have your baby close to home

Our world-class NICUs are conveniently located in Sharp hospitals across San Diego County.
