At the Lindo Wing and the Clayton Ward, we are here to make your journey as smooth and supported as possible. That’s why we have put together a simple hospital bag checklist below and available to download here with everything you will need - for you, your baby and your support person. We have also included a few tips on what you can leave at home, so packing feels easy and stress-free.
Most parents find it helpful to pack their bags around 36 weeks of pregnancy, just in case baby decides to arrive early. However, please be assured that we can provide most of the items from this list.
Please note partners meals and drinks are included.
Please feel free to bring anything that will make you feel at ease, whether it’s a favourite book, or music, including a portable speaker to create the perfect atmosphere.
We recommend bringing your favourite snacks and drinks to keep you energised during labour or while recovering after the birth.
While we advise leaving valuables at home, we do provide a room safe to keep your belongings secure.
We look forward to welcoming you at the Lindo Wing and Clayton Ward, where every detail is thoroughly designed to make you feel reassured, confident and able focus on creating beautiful memories as you are welcome your baby into the world.
If you have any questions, please contact us on +44 (0)20 3312 2535.
