Located in Chelsea in southwest London, the Kensington Wing offers a range of private care options for parent-to-be and baby, with a focus on individualised, custom care.

One of the most wonderful features of the Kensington Wing is the ability to have all the benefits of private maternity care, including trained midwives or obstetrics/gynaecology doctors, or both, all in a comfortable, private setting. Being part of a highly-rated hospital like Chelsea and Westminster provides the additional peace of mind for expectant mothers, that should any complications arise, the expert medical staff and state of the art diagnostics and equipment are within easy reach.

The Kensington Wing offers a range of birthing and baby delivery options with the highest standards of care available for each. Patients can choose midwife-led or consultant-led care for their pregnancy and delivery. In addition, follow-up care, including postnatal exams and support, are provided.

Midwife care and delivery are available for most types of low-risk pregnancies. Our trained midwives work hand-in-hand with ultrasound specialists and other consultants to ensure all the pre-natal checks and monitoring occur during your pregnancy. The expert and highly-trained midwives at the Kensington Wing are on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to provide a comprehensive, patient-focused pregnancy experience. When the big moment arrives, your chosen midwife will help you deliver and welcome the newest member of your family into the world. Should any complications arise, a trained obstetrics consultant is always on call and assigned to your case, and can step in at a moment's notice.

Consultant care and delivery follow a more traditional modern medicine route. All pre-natal exams and tests are conducted, and your chosen obstetrician/consultant will continue to monitor your pregnancy and baby's development. When it is time for delivery, the consultant will expertly work with you to ensure a smooth delivery. If any issues develop, they are fully trained and capable of handling emergencies as fully qualified doctors.

Most of the various services at the Kensington Wing are available a la carte, and a customized program of prenatal checks, labour and delivery services, and post-natal services can be tailored to the needs, wants, and financial limitations of every expectant mother. All of these services are offered from the comfort of a highly-rated, private labour and delivery hospital London.
