Inside, our new
facility includes two complete birthing suites, including the self-standing
birthing cottage. Each suite features its own independent entrance and is
ideal for families who wish to stay in attendance of the birthing mother.
Large, airy rooms
provide space for classes, support groups, and workshops. Our library
contains a wealth of resource materials on every aspect of birth,
breastfeeding, women's health, infant care, and child development.
In addition we have a
full suite of examination rooms, lab facility, and kitchen. Our sister
institution, The Florida School of
Traditional Midwifery, occupies the second floor of the building.
Minutes away from
hospital facilities at Shands at AGH, the Birth Center is ideally located
within a few blocks walk of three bed and breakfasts, the public library,
and the wealth of restaurants and cafes in downtown Gainesville.
