A Maternity Nurse Navigator is your personal coach, advocate, and guide from pregnancy through parenthood. Your navigator works with you and your partner to provide education, set expectations, and help ensure a positive pregnancy, labor, and delivery experience.
It’s never too soon to call. Your Maternity Nurse Navigator is here to answer questions even before your first prenatal appointment. Whether you’re wondering about prenatal vitamins, calculating your due date, or making dietary changes, your navigator is available to provide guidance.
