One hour old baby

Scripps Mercy Hospital in San Diego is a fantastic place to have your new child!
They have a real 24hr nursery in case you need it, and the nurses are fantastic too.

Here is a little background info:
Scripps Mercy Hospital, San Diego's oldest hospital, was founded in 1890 and joined the Scripps system in 1995. Sisters of Mercy, led by Sister Mary Michael Cummings, open a five-bed dispensary, St. Joseph's, on Sixth Avenue and Market Street in downtown San Diego in 1890. The hospital moves to Eighth and University Avenues in Hillcrest the following year. More at http://www.scripps.org/GeneralInfo.asp?ID=5

At Scripps, we give every mother and infant the kind of one-on-one attention that has made us the choice of women throughout San Diego County. So it's no surprise that more than 9,000 babies are born at Scripps hospitals every year!

Scripps provides a warm, helpful and secure environment for you and your newborn. Scripps hospitals use a multidisciplinary approach to pregnancy, delivery and the postpartum period. Our staff includes physicians, nurses, lactation specialists, nurse-midwives, certified childbirth educators, home health experts, registered dietitians, social workers and respiratory care practitioners. In addition to our childbirth services, Scripps offers a physician referral network, high-level prenatal and neonatal care, baby hearing screenings, infant nutrition information and maternity and childbirth classes. Our staff strongly believes that sensitivity to each mother, baby and family goes hand-in-hand with our state-of-the-art treatment and facilities.

Maternal-Child Health Services offers specialized care for mothers-to-be and their babies with family-centered prenatal, antenatal and postnatal care, as well as parenting, sibling and childbirth classes in conjunction with Scripps well-being centers. Maternal-Child Health Services includes a Labor and Delivery unit with labor/ delivery/ recovery rooms. In Scripps Mercy Family Birth Unit, parents can choose to stay with their babies or sleep separately, made possible by our newborn nursery — the only one in San Diego that is fully staffed 24 hours a day.
