For nearly a century, St. Mary's Hospital has fostered beautiful beginnings through its unique Baby Club.  Every parent who gives birth at St. Mary's Hospital during the year, or enrolls in our free childbirth or parenting classes for a due date during the year, will automatically be granted membership in this exclusive Club.  Fun and rewarding for the entire family, our members are offered a series of free childbirth seminars and classes, commemorative materials for their baby's scrapbook and a special birth announcement on our web page. 

Many parents want to share their birth announcement and baby's first photo instantly for friends and relatives who are unable to visit.  With your permission, we'll take a photograph of your baby and post his or her picture on our web page, Peek into Our Nursery Window.  By simply logging onto the St. Mary's Hospital website, your entire family can share in your joy and excitement! To find out more about the Baby Club, please call 301-475-6019.
