Having your baby at The Royal London Hospital

Mum, Simona and baby Melissa. 

"We will never forget the lovely sonographer lady who told us we were expecting a girl. Our midwives were professional and supportive and I cannot thank the staff enough for a healthy baby. You are stars!"

Baby Aurora, The Royal London Hospital

The midwife that was with me, Martina, was so kind and gentle, her smile made me feel safe and protected. I was scared but the entire staff was amazing and guided me through the whole process. Despite all the pain and my birth experience going exactly the opposite as I planned it, I still feel it was the best thing and all the staff who assisted me was great.

Afsara, Royal London Hospital

I am currently 40 weeks pregnant and I was treated with the most care and respect by one of the lovely midwives who work here. I just wanted to share my personal experience of feeling listened to at the time. She kindly answered all my questions and my husbands (believe me we had a lot of questions too).

Louis S, Barkantine Birth Centre

My baby is 15 months today and I’d like to give a very delayed “Thank You” to all the midwives who were there for us during covid and post birth. Everyone we met were very professional, kind, caring and thoughtful

Jo, Ryan & Baby Cora, Barkantine Birth Centre

A sincere and heartfelt thank you to all your team for our safe delivery of baby, Cora on 26th October. 

We loved their energy & determination during the pushing stage and felt they went above and beyond in the aftercare post delivery. 

Overall, despite planning a home birth, we understood that being induced was the right decision. At every step we felt informed, supported and cared for in our birth journey.
