Description
The Clutha Health First Maternity Centre is a primary birthing facility that has a reputation for providing one-on-one care to new parents in a friendly, quiet and ‘homely' environment, staffed by a small team of local qualified nurses and midwives.
We provide a holistic birthing environment with all the necessary equipment and expertise required to deliver safe care to women experiencing a low risk pregnancy and anticipating a normal birth, and offer women and their families a peaceful, safe and friendly atmosphere in which to begin your parenting journey.

- two private bedrooms with a shared ensuite
- one private bedroom with own ensuite
- birthing room with pool and ensuite
