Welcome! Thanks for your interest in the Mercy Birthing Center at Mercy Hospital St. Louis. We're eager to show you around. Just follow the instructions below to take the virtual tour.
On the first floor is Mercy's in-hospital, low-risk birthing center for moms who want a more natural childbirth experience. You will visit the certified nurse midwife in the clinic for all your prenatal appointments and take childbirth classes in the community room next door.
Moms choose the Mercy Birthing Center for its natural childbirth options. And if you or your baby should have a medical issue, our Labor and Birth area is just an elevator's ride away. A certified nurse midwife will be with you during your birth. Doulas and your partner are welcome here.
The Mercy Birthing Center has four birthing suites, beautifully decorated for a soothing, at-home environment. Each one has a queen-size bed, a shower and large labor tub. Most moms stay about four to 12 hours after baby's birth, and return within two days for follow-up care.
