Your Maternity Care Journey at Prince Court Medical Centre: What to Expect

Bringing a new life into the world is one of life’s most meaningful moments. At Prince Court Medical Centre, we are here to support you at every stage of your pregnancy journey with care that is personal, attentive, and reassuring.

We understand that no two pregnancies are the same. That is why our multidisciplinary team takes the time to understand your medical history, personal preferences, and individual needs. Our comprehensive maternity care services include prenatal care, childbirth education, obstetric and neonatal support. We provide everything you need for a safe and confident pregnancy experience, all under one roof.

Why Choose Prince Court Maternity Services

A Highly Skilled Multidisciplinary Team and Advanced Facilities You Can Trust

Each year, we care for nearly 5,000 mothers and babies, supporting them through pregnancy, labour, delivery, and the postnatal period.

Our experienced multidisciplinary team is well-equipped to manage both routine and complex pregnancies, including:

• High blood pressure or diabetes during pregnancy

• Multiple pregnancies

• Preterm or post-term deliveries

With advanced surgical capabilities and comprehensive pain relief options, our team is prepared to respond quickly and effectively should any unexpected situation arise.

To ensure the best possible care for newborns, Prince Court Medical Centre is supported by:

• A Special Care Nursery (SCN)

• A fully equipped Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)

Our paediatric team includes neonatologists and a wide range of paediatric subspecialists, ensuring your baby receives expert care from the very first moments of life.

Constant Monitoring of Your Baby's Safety

Your baby’s safety is our top priority during labour and delivery.

We use an advanced Cardiotocography (CTG) monitoring system that tracks your baby’s heart rate and your contractions in real time. This system is connected directly to the doctor’s mobile device, allowing the medical team to respond immediately if there are any signs of foetal distress.

For added peace of mind after birth, Prince Court Medical Centre also uses an RFID tagging system for newborns. This technology:

• Tracks your baby’s location in real time

• Ensures your baby remains within designated safe zones

• Instantly alerts staff if your baby is moved outside these areas

This system is especially valuable for premature babies who require closer monitoring, while also providing reassurance to parents that their newborn is always safe and supervised.

Ensuring Comfort and Privacy During Childbirth and Recovery

We believe a calm and comfortable environment plays an important role in childbirth and recovery.

Prince Court Medical Centre offers:

• 4 spacious delivery suites equipped with modern medical facilities

• 14 private maternity rooms, each with an ensuite bathroom

Each room is designed with your comfort in mind and includes thoughtful amenities such as a sofa bed and nursing chair, allowing you to rest and bond with your baby in privacy.

Our medical team is available around the clock to support you, whether it is answering questions, guiding skin-to-skin contact, teaching kangaroo care, or assisting with breastfeeding.

To support recovery after childbirth, we also provide a specially curated confinement menu, developed by professional dietitians. These nourishing meals are designed to help new mothers regain strength while enjoying comforting, well-balanced food during their stay.

Comprehensive Post-Delivery Support

Our care continues well beyond delivery.

New parents receive a comprehensive postnatal guide and hands-on education, including:

• Baby CPR

• Baby massage techniques

• Safe feeding and bathing practices

• Proper use of car seats

Our midwives are available 24/7 to answer questions and provide reassurance as you adjust to life with your newborn.

Optional Add-On Services

You may choose to enhance your maternity experience with the following services:

Lactation Consultation

Our highly-trained certified lactation consultants provide personalised support to help you establish and maintain breastfeeding, offering guidance on positioning, latching, and common breastfeeding challenges.

Healthy Eating After Birth

A one-on-one 30-minute consultation with a dietitian to help you rebuild strength after delivery. You will receive tailored dietary advice to support recovery and overall well-being.

Confinement Physiotherapy and Body Care

Our physiotherapists support your postnatal recovery with guidance for:

• Pelvic floor exercises

• Postnatal do’s and don’ts

• Strength and mobility restoration

Psychologist Counselling

Emotional well-being is just as important as physical recovery. Our psychologists are available 24/7 to provide emotional and mental health support, helping you manage stress, anxiety, and the emotional changes that can follow childbirth.

Our Commitment to You

We believe that every mother and baby deserve the best care. At Prince Court Medical Centre, we are committed to delivering that care to you. We are honoured to be a part of this beautiful journey and we look forward to helping you welcome your bundle of joy into the world.
