Will a Maternity Home Help Me With Healthcare Needs?

An unplanned pregnancy stirs up many emotions. Your parents might be angry or feel embarrassed. Your partner may insist you get an unwanted abortion and refuse to support you. Or the environment where you live is abusive and unsafe. Many scenarios can lead you to the doorstep of a maternity home.

If you discover you are unexpectedly pregnant and need a safe space, turn to Lamb of God Maternity Homes. We provide a restful place to receive the assistance you need, including prenatal healthcare and delivery of your baby.

What Type of Healthcare Can a Maternity Home Provide?

A pregnancy thrives when the mother thrives; excellent mental and physical healthcare is part of thriving. At Lamb of God Maternity Homes, we offer 24/7 Wrap-Around Care. What does that mean? Our compassionate advocates ensure you get all the help you need—physically, mentally, and spiritually. 

Your healthcare includes:

• Primary and prenatal healthcare
• Social support services
• Mental health treatment and support
• Inpatient hospital care for delivery
• Care management, including postpartum care

What Do Your Services Cost?

Lamb of God is fully supported by private donations, making your stay with us free of charge. When facing an unplanned pregnancy, you don’t need the additional stress of finding a safe place to live, nutritious food, healthcare, transportation, etc. 

Our advocates create a peaceful environment where you can rest and consider your options. One-on-one mentorship and guidance help you plan for your future and your baby’s. 

Why Do You Offer Adoption Support?

There are many reasons women come to Lamb of God Maternity Home. Perhaps they’re too young to raise a child or financially unstable. They experience substance abuse or physical violence. Or, as a single mother, they do not have the capacity or the will to raise a child.

Myths and misunderstandings surround adoption. We believe it is a viable parenting option for an expectant mother who cannot safely and successfully raise her child. 

It is a wonderful, painful, selfless, and complex option. Understanding an expectant mother’s rights and the adoption process is critical. 

We promise never to pressure or manipulate you. Instead, our adoption support provides counseling, guidance, and the ability to customize an adoption plan that’s right for you. The bottom line is you decide what is best for you and your baby.

When you choose an open or semi-open adoption plan, you also have the opportunity to select the adoptive parents who raise your child. You choose the future you hope your child will have. 

As you journey through the adoption process, you can meet the couple you select before giving birth. By establishing a relationship with them early on, you become a vital part of your child’s life.
