Nau mai, haere mai — welcome to Waterford Birth Centre.
A primary birthing unit nestled in the heart of Hamilton, where you can birth your baby, or rest, recover, and bond as a new whānau after birth. We have two beautiful birthing rooms and eight postnatal rooms, staffed by experienced midwives 24/7.

Our team is here to provide expert care and compassionate support in the moments that mean the most. Waterford Birth Centre is free for all families eligible for publicly funded maternity care in New Zealand. We offer a calm, nurturing environment for you and your pēpi to begin your journey together.

Testimonials

  • Two adults, a woman and a man, standing in front of a tropical leaf patterned wall with a neon sign that reads 'Waterford Birth Center.' The woman is smiling and wearing a white sweatshirt, and the man is holding a baby car seat with a sleeping baby in it. The man is wearing a dark jacket, shorts, slippers, hat, and sunglasses. There are large white vases and potted plants on the floor next to them.
