A longer stay. More time to bond.

When you choose St John of God Ballarat Hospital, you are choosing the option to have your partner stay with you overnight, a longer hospital stay, your own obstetrician, and access to breastfeeding and mental health support with us.
All with the support and care of our midwives, nurses and experienced caregivers.

The care you receive from your obstetrician and our midwives and nurses supports you through your pregnancy, birth and into the early days of parenthood including with breastfeeding and mental health.

We even have a birth playlist so you have the perfect backing track for when you welcome your little one into the world. 

Find out more about your maternity journey, from the first, second and third trimester, birth, breastfeeding, and beyond. Not yet pregnant? Don’t worry, we have all the information you need too.

Thinking of starting and expanding your family? Or have you just found out you are pregnant? Ask us about our maternity services, or let us know if you are keen to attend a maternity ward tour, and one of our maternity caregivers will be back in touch.
