Advanced Care Just for Kids
We understand what you already know: Kids need a special kind of health care.
Our facilities are specially designed to help children feel more comfortable. We use the latest newborn and pediatric medical technology. Our pediatricians are trained to understand how to diagnose, treat, and manage complex health conditions in kids.
We are a 107-bed and 57-bassinette hospital located within Baystate Medical Center. We provide a full range of primary and advanced pediatric care to babies, children, and teens.

ALL visitors must adhere to Baystate Health infection control practices that are in effect throughout our organization:
