Empowering you for motherhood.

Each year, we welcome nearly 8,000 babies into the world. And as the only hospital in San Diego dedicated to women and newborns, we have a unique understanding of pregnancy, delivery and aftercare. In our Maternal Infant Services Unit, we cater to women after delivery.

The quality care you expect from Sharp Mary Birch.

Consider documenting your post-delivery preferences on your birth plan worksheet to share with your caregivers.

At Sharp Mary Birch, our loyal team of caregivers is focused on you and your baby, and includes:

• Doctors
• Lactation consultants
• Neonatal specialists
• Registered nurses

As you recover, your nurse will carry a cellphone so you can reach her directly at any time. And our unit includes a special infant observation area for babies needing extra care and attention.

Family-centered care with all the comforts of home.

All hospital services occur in your room allowing you and your new family time to bond. These services include:

• Breastfeeding support
• Daily family home care class
• Food and nutritional services
• In-room hearing screening for baby
• Quiet time
• Sleeper sofas for an overnight guest

Giving your baby the best possible start in life.

We’ll help process your baby’s birth certificate, pack your complimentary diaper bag and send you home with a list of community resources. 

While nothing can prepare you for parenthood like diving in headfirst, we can help provide you with tips on breastfeeding, sleep patterns and other new baby joys.
