Where to find CHA Birth Center

What parents say

Any women that are pregnant or even if you become pregnant in the future, I strongly suggest Cambridge Birth Center. Especially ****WOMEN OF COLOR*** I chose a water birth and it was the best experience ever.

★★★★★ — Cadieja, 2022-08

Compassionate, LGBTQ friendly nurse midwives and staff who really take the time to listen to you. I received my prenatal care here and although I was not able to deliver in the birth center because I became higher risk when I went into labor, the transition to birth in Cambridge Hospital across the street was seamless.

★★★★★ — Lisa, 2020-01

Fondly remember & have driven my boys back to see CHA Birth center as their place of birth many times! The care recieved was impressive, both knowledgable & compassionate.
