Special Extras
We know that sometimes it's the little extras that make a big difference. Here are some of the services we've created to provide you and your family with that little extra comfort and happiness:

Professional Photography Service
You baby's first photos are a keepsake for life. For that reason, St. Luke's Hospital brings experienced photographers from Bella Baby Photography to the hospital to capture your baby's precious first photographs with a natural, artistic style. Your professional mini photo shoot can take place right in the comfort of your hospital room. Learn more and see some of the precious photos.

Complimentary Meal for Parents
Parents deserve special treatment! In celebration of each baby's birth, St. Luke's invites parents or Mom's support person to enjoy a complimentary meal of their choice delivered through our hotel-style room service.

Freshly-Baked Cookies Delivered to Your Room
We deliver freshly-baked cookies to the rooms of all our Maternity patients - because you deserve a little something special during your hospital stay.

Baby Buntings
A new baby is a precious bundle any time of the year, but holidays and other special days are cause for extra celebration. Known as the "Baby Bunting" hospital, St. Luke's dresses the newborns in themed baby buntings on holidays for a special photo opportunity (as shown on local and national television including "NBC Nightly News" and the "NBC Today Show.")

A Gift to Take Home
As a token of our thanks for choosing St. Luke's - and because we know a new baby requires many new things - we send you home with a cozy microfleece Halo™ SleepSack swaddle blanket for your baby. It's our gift to you. All moms also receive a booklet on postpartum care and a folder stocked with new parent resources.
