Maternity Services

Nau mai haere mai, welcome to our maternity services here at Health NZ Te Whatu Ora Lakes.

Our maternity service is available to support you throughout all of the stages of your pregnancy, during childbirth and once your pēpi has been born.

We encourage you to register for free care with your chosen Lead Maternity Carer (LMC) as soon as you know you are pregnant, so you and your pēpi can receive the best care from as early as possible.

To find a midwife in your area:

Please go to: https://www.findyourmidwife.co.nz

If unable to find a midwife, please phone: 0800 Lakes Baby (0800 525 372)

We work in partnership with you and your chosen LMC to provide the most appropriate care for you and your pēpi specific needs.

Our two maternity facilities within our Lakes region are:

• Rotorua Hospital
• Taupō Hospital
