Pre-Birth Tour 

We encourage all expectant parents to take a childbirth center tour at the campus where they will be delivering, approximately 4-8 weeks before their due date. This walking tour will provide you with parking and entrance information for the hospital, how to get to the birth center, amenities available in each birthing suite, what to bring with you, what to expect during your hospital stay, and postpartum care. If you need to do so, you will also be able to complete pre-registration for the hospital. We are unable to accommodate children under the age of 10 on this tour. Tour size is limited so one registration is for the expectant mother plus one support person. Pre-registration is required.
