Lewisham Maternity Services

At Lewisham Maternity Services, we know that having your baby is one of the most important and exciting times in your life. That’s why we’ve been working hard to deliver a wide range of new initiatives and ensure your birth is a really positive experience, where you feel safe and supported.

We deliver more than 3,500 babies each year: on the Labour Ward, in the Birth Centre and in people's own homes.
