“An award-winning maternity service that was the first in London to achieve full accreditation as a baby-friendly hospital.”West Middlesex maternity unit is the sister unit to Chelsea and Westminster. Together we are one of the largest maternity services in London, supporting over 10,000 births every year.Our team of midwives, doctors and healthcare assistants work closely together both in the hospital and in the community to ensure continuity of high quality care, centred around the needs of each and every woman—a holistic and individualised approach.Our philosophy is for everyone using our maternity service to be fully involved in making decisions about their care. We believe this is why we are a popular local choice with expectant parents and why many return to us for subsequent pregnancies.We were the first maternity unit in London to achieve full accreditation by UNICEF as a baby-friendly hospital.We recently expanded our facilities to give women more choice in clean, bright and comfortable surroundings—a home away from home. Our individual postnatal suites can be booked for additional privacy and comfort.
