Maternal Child Program

We provide state-of-the-art health care in obstetrical, postpartum, paediatric and neonatal inpatient and ambulatory services at Quinte Health. We are pleased to assist women and their families during the birth of about 1,500 babies per year. To support our clients and staff, certified lactation consultants are also part of our team.

For labour and delivery patients, please visit our informative "Having a baby at Quinte Health" section. Our social worker and nursing staff have assembled information from what to bring to hospital, where to access prenatal and breastfeeding information, to helpful links and community resources for postpartum support.
