Birth Center

At Buffalo Hospital, expectant parents are assured of the highest level of care. The Center offers labor and delivery rooms featuring a warm, attractive setting with technology readily available to support your child’s birth. After your child is born, we move you to a fresh, private room that’s quiet, homelike and restful. Skilled, compassionate nurses work hard to ensure your birth plan is followed, teach baby care/breastfeeding techniques and provide ongoing support.

Exceptional nurses

We know how important the quality of care is during the birthing experience, for you and your baby’s health as well as your emotional well-being. That’s why we have nurses who specialize in delivery, post-partum and newborn care. They’re highly trained, experienced and very attentive to your needs.

Pain management

An anesthesiologist administers and oversees your pain medication, providing you with highest level of expertise. If you’re at all nervous about your upcoming delivery, just knowing an anesthesiologist will be nearby can make you feel better.  

Level II Nursery

The Birth Center's Level II nursery can care for babies born prematurely at 33 weeks or later. In addition, babies born earlier than 33 weeks or requiring more intensive care in a Level III nursery at birth, can be transferred back to Buffalo Hospital to take advantage of our nursery services until they can go home. 

Lactation (breastfeeding)

The staff at Buffalo Hospital would like to help you in any way we can to make your breast feeding experience successful. Several of our nurses have had advanced lactation education, training and certification and are available to answer your questions and assist you with your nursing needs.

We offer a wide range of childbirth and parenting classes including childbirth preparation and refresher courses, healthy pregnancy lifestyle education, preventing preterm birth, breastfeeding basics, sibling classes and taking care of yourself and baby.
