Mother and Baby Care in Calhoun

Choosing where to have your baby can be a difficult decision, which is why at The Baby Place at AdventHealth Gordon, formerly Gordon Hospital, we've done our best to make it as easy as possible. We take pride in our comprehensive approach to maternity care, offering spacious and private labor, delivery, and recovery suites (the only ones of their kind in the state of Georgia), specially trained lactation consultants, and a commitment to couplet care, where you and your baby are looked after together by the same nurse in the same room. These are just a few of the ways The Baby Place hopes to make you feel at home while you’re our guest.

Treating you to leading amenities may be our specialty, but quality and safety are always our highest concern. At The Baby Place at our Calhoun hospital, our board-certified OB/GYNs and pediatric specialists offer some of the most advanced maternity care in Gordon County. From low-intervention births to scheduled C-sections, we have everything you need to feel comfortable and secure. Here’s to spending far less time worrying, and far more time resting, relaxing, and rejoicing in your new family. You've got this, and so do we.

You’ve read all the books, purchased all the gear, even painted the nursery. And though nothing can ever fully prepare new parents for what’s to come, we can help you fill in some information gaps with pregnancy education and support opportunities to help you know what to expect before, during, and after your baby’s arrival. Expectant moms and partners are invited to take our childbirth education class and lactation workshops taught by certified educators. Plus, soon-to-be parents and even siblings are encouraged to take our comprehensive hospital orientation tour.
