The Children's Hospital Services

Few hospitals offer the services provided by The Children's Hospital at Saint Peter's. Designated as a regional perinatal center, Saint Peter's provides the most sophisticated level of newborn care available. It is that level of expertise that helps make us one of the busiest maternity units in the nation: we deliver more than 6,100 babies every year.

Specially Trained Staff

Our doctors and nurses are also trained to treat a wide variety of pediatric diseases and disorders. Children and infants suffering from childhood cancers, craniofacial deformities and other conditions receive personalized and specialized care from our staff.

Newborn Services

We provide expectant parents with programs that help them prepare for what lies ahead. Saint Peter's newborn intensive care nursery focuses on ensuring the health of mother and baby if complications arise.

Pediatric Services

Our affiliation with The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) has led to the establishment of the CHOP Cardiac Center, where we provide the highest level of pediatric cardiac care, one of the many pediatric services that we offer. We are also one of the few hospitals in the state to have a designated pediatric emergency department.

Saint Peter's boasts some of the top pediatric surgeons in the region, all of whom take special care of children who must undergo surgical procedures. Children recovering from surgery, as well as those suffering from long-term illnesses, receive treatment in our pediatric intensive care unit (PICU).
