Through each big decision and every moment of joy, we’re here to guide you. With a network of world-class OB/GYNs, midwives, prenatal care experts, perinatologists, and NICUs, along with a world of resources from family planning to post-pregnancy, you’ll always have the support you need.
Our support begins right from the start. You’re welcome to join our online classes or visit us at The Baby Place Academy®, where you can attend workshops on everything from baby care and breastfeeding to infant CPR.
Your baby is going to be like no other, so why not customize a birth day to match? Your Birth Experience Coordinator can help you design a delivery experience that’s tailored just for you.
With four locations across Central Florida and an entire network of care behind you, your family will have the expert support you need every step of the way.
Pregnancy and motherhood are exciting, challenging, and joyful all at once — even when it’s not your first time around. That’s why we provide everything you need along your pregnancy journey. From your own Birth Experience Coordinator to the most knowledgeable obstetricians, nurses, and certified childbirth educators, you’ll always have expert guidance.
There’s nothing quite like the joy of starting your own family. Whether you’re getting ready for your first child or your third, you’re most certainly busy preparing your head, heart, and home for your newest arrival.
While some things you may anticipate during pregnancy, like taking daily vitamins and prepping your hospital overnight bag, other potential needs, like finding a specialized pregnancy doctor who treats high-risk newborns, aren’t as obvious. That’s why it’s a good idea to meet with a family planning expert and obstetrician. They will help you boost your chances of a safe pregnancy and check for any high-risk factors, long before your last trimester.
Birth Experience Coordinator
We also offer a seasoned team of Birth Experience Coordinators who will handle every detail of your maternity care. As registered nurses and certified childbirth educators, your Birth Experience Coordinator will guide you through every stage of your pregnancy, answering your questions, and working with you to create a personal birth plan. You can also count on them to remind you to get to your prenatal screenings — and have the right prenatal checklists handy, too. We provide all of this and more, so you can relax, enjoy, and focus on welcoming your newborn into your life.
Classes for New Parents
Enroll in one of our many classes to help you get familiar with new parenting skills. Choose from a bootcamp for new dads, breastfeeding support and lactation consultation, baby care basics, pediatric CPR, and more. Led by registered nurses and certified childbirth educators, our courses will provide you with the essentials for your new addition.
When you’re pregnant, the passing of time is measured in weeks and fruit sizes. While pregnancy can be a joyful journey, it can also come with its own set of concerns — ones you can bring to us any time, day or night. Your team of prenatal care specialists and midwives are here to make sure you have access to the latest advancements in OB care, plus the support and resources you need to enjoy the healthiest possible pregnancy.
At AdventHealth for Women, you have four locations to choose from to help keep your care close to home. The first step is meeting face-to-face with your obstetrician, who advises you on your care. If you’d like a certified nurse midwife, you can meet with her, too. Tour one of The Baby Places next, where you can attend parenting classes and personalize your delivery with a Birth Wish List. From low-intervention births with music to full pain-care assistance, you can choose the delivery that’s right for you. You’ll even enjoy leading technologies such as mobile fetal monitoring, which allows you to move around during labor and potentially speeds up your time to delivery.
When it comes time for your baby’s birth day, your obstetrician will be on hand to help guide your child into the world. Once you and your new bundle are settled, we’ll be here to provide all the care you both need, including baby blessings and even upgraded amenities like mom-and-baby portraits to share with friends and family. We’ll help you relax in a hospital suite with WiFi, TV, and pull-out couches for overnight visitors.
Maternal-Fetal Medicine Expertise
No one wants to hear the words “high-risk pregnancy,” but if these words become a part of your journey, we hope you find comfort knowing that our team of specialists is always prepared to help you. Our Comprehensive Fetal Medicine program is designed to support your pregnancy day by day, week by week, guided by your Care Coordinator and customized care plan.

Learn MoreYour body will probably feel different after childbirth, and you’ll need time to regain your strength and flexibility. You may also experience pelvic discomfort, back pain, or incontinence, and wonder if these symptoms are normal. You’re not alone; many women experience these common symptoms after labor and delivery.
Many times, pregnancies and/or childbirth can result in weakness in your pelvic floor. These symptoms are uncomfortable but highly treatable. Your Birth Experience Coordinator can connect you with our Body After Baby program, which includes physical therapists who specialize in pelvic rehabilitation.
If you’re feeling more than the typical pelvic discomfort, we can treat your pain with innovative techniques, such as the latest minimally invasive robotic surgery and single-incision laparoscopy techniques. With fewer incisions, you’ll experience minimal scarring, less pain, and a short recovery time, so you can quickly return to nurturing and bonding with your baby.
Request an AppointmentOnce your baby’s here, the real adventure begins. Your daily routines are about to change, but stay confident, savor every snuggle, and have faith that you know just what your child needs.

Above all, we want you to know you’re never alone, and that asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. Adjusting to life as “Mom” can be challenging.

We’ll be there to lift you up, and happily connect you with postpartum counselors and screenings.
