Where the stars deliver in LA
by Nancy and Betsy
Sure, maybe you'll be completely out of it during labor -- or focused elsewhere -- but you have to admit: the Cedars-Sinai Deluxe Maternity Suites do sound pretty awesome. Yes, dah-ling, this Beverly Hills hospital is where many celebs -- from Jodie Foster to Madonna to Catherine Zeta Jones -- welcomed their babies.
Here's what the hospital has to say about their suites. Sweet!
Enhancing the Birthing Experience
Our Deluxe Maternity Suites offer special services throughout your postpartum experience. We begin by taking mothers-to-be on a privately guided tour before delivery. Our staff will help you become familiar with where and how to check in when you are ready to give birth. Once you have checked in, our Deluxe Maternity Suites program includes valet parking with unrestricted usage for your partner.
At Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, our new mothers give birth in beautifully decorated private labor-delivery-recovery rooms. Soft colors, recessed lighting and coordinated bedding and drapery provide a sense of "home." Special touches, including full-sized tubs for relaxation during labor and comfortable birthing beds, add to the mother's comfort.
Once you have delivered your baby, you will be taken to your reserved, private, two- or three-room suite, offering the finest in comfort for you, your baby and your family members. Because the rooms are so large, they provide the perfect overnight accommodations for a family member or a nanny. These rooms are exceptionally designed with hardwood floors, elegantly coordinated bedding and drapes and recessed lighting. It is the perfect setting to bond with your newborn baby.
Combining Comfort, Luxury and Expertise
The Deluxe Maternity Suites at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center are designed to create surroundings for new families that combine the ultimate in comfort with the compassionate, expert care found at our renowned facility. Available for an additional fee, these services provide special touches that enhance the birthing experience, making it more pleasant and memorable for the new mother and her family. From our elegant accommodations to the extra personal care we provide, we know how to pamper mothers and their new babies.
All the Comforts of Home
For your convenience, every deluxe room includes an in-room refrigerator, stocked with complimentary chilled juices and bottled water. You will find a stereo/CD player, as well as a television and VCR. To help you stay connected, there is even a laptop computer with fax, modem and Internet access available right in your room - the ideal tools to spread the word about your new baby.
Our Deluxe Maternity Suites program also provides new mothers with a hair dryer, hotel-style robe and complimentary toiletries. For an added fee, you can arrange for salon services, such as haircut and style, manicure and pedicure - the perfect way to pamper yourself.
All patients in the deluxe suites receive a basket of fresh fruit and muffins with their first deluxe meal, and beverages are stocked in the refrigerator. We are happy to provide one deluxe meal for the mother's partner each day, but the other meals that are part of the deluxe service are provided for the new moms only. To celebrate the birth of your baby, a private dinner for two is included in the deluxe package. You will share a very special meal, choosing your dinner from a menu specially catered for this occasion. Extra touches, such as a linen tablecloth and napkins and chilled juices on ice, help make this a special dining experience.
