Philadelphia area hospitals we serve!

 Philadelphia area hospitals we serve!


Philadelphia is only two blocks from us! We moved to Merion because we have the train a block from us so that we can easily go into the city via train or driving. I feel so blessed to live in an area that can serve SO many hospitals. Most doulas have a rule that they need to be able to get to the place they are serving within 45minutes to 1hr at the most and we have that rule too. Living just outside of Philadelphia allows for that very easily as we can serve families as far out as Reading or as close as Queen's Village or Center City.

Here is a list of the hospitals within 45-60 minute drive of Bryn Mawr, PA. I will use Bryn Mawr since it is more towards the center of the Main Line:

(under construction)
Lankenua Medical Center
Bryn Mawr Hospital
Paoli Hospital
Hospital of the University of Pennsylvani
Pennsylvania Hospital
 Jefferson Hospital
Delaware County Memorial Hospital
Childrens Hospital of Philadelphia(Yes they do have a special delivery unit!)
Hahnemann University Hospital

CHOP Special Delivery Unit: Hospitals We Serve


The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Special Delivery maternity Unit was specifically designed to be a safe haven inside CHOP designed specifically for the needs of a laboring mother and their family. Families come here knowing that their baby will have very special medical needs immediately at birth and after. Often times babies come from surrounding hospitals, and mom is required to stay in the hospital they birthed in for 1 day or more, while baby is transferred to CHOP.

Birthing directly in the CHOP Special Delivery Unit, mom's are not separated by many buildings or even miles away from their baby. They are able to actively participate from minute 1 in their babies care and decision making. This is something that would not be possible for babies expecting to be born with very special medical needs and born in a hospital without the abilities of such an advanced NICU and surgeons.
