Within the maternity department at James Cook we have dedicated rooms, where you can spend precious time with your baby.
Some families choose to spend a short time in hospital and some families decide to stay longer, the choice is yours.
The Snowdrop Suite
The Snowdrop Suite is a private room located on central delivery suite where your care will be provided before, during and after the birth of your baby. The room features an en-suite bathroom and kitchen area. The Snowdrop Suite opened in 2023 thanks to the fantastic fundraising efforts of bereaved families, hospital staff and local businesses.
Following the birth of your baby you can stay in this room and spend time meeting your baby and making precious memories.
Our midwives are experienced in supporting families with the practicalities of this and can provide you with items which you can use to make precious memories.
Infinity Suite
Is a calm and comfortable, private room located close to central delivery suite. The room features a double-bed, en-suite bathroom and a small kitchen area. This room is available for you to use following the birth of your baby.
The Infinity Suite opened in December 2019, following fundraising efforts by the family of Billy Daniel Jones and the Teesside community.
Taking your baby home
Should you wish to take your baby home with you, we can support you with this and will make the necessary arrangements for you.
