The first recorded birth at Calvary North Adelaide Hospital was in 1902, just two years after it was founded. The Maternity Ward as it is seen today was constructed in 1940 and it is from this date that the number of births in the hospital is referenced. Founded in 1885 by the Sisters of the Little Company of Mary, Calvary is a charitable, not-for-profit, Catholic health care organisation. Our mis

sion is to provide quality, compassionate health care to the most vulnerable, including those reaching the end of their life. With over 18,000 staff and volunteers, we have a national network of 14 Public and Private Hospitals, 72 Residential Care and Retirement Communities and 19 Community Care service centres.

A warm welcome to all the Calvary babies who, like little Martha, were born in May.

While the official flowers of last month are the lily of the valley and the hawthorn, the flowers that feature on our new maternity artwork and baby wrap gifts are the brachyscome daisy. A small, sweet, and cheerful little bloom, these SA native flowers greet all our new arrivals and their families wherever they are within the unit.

When Leah and husband Adam welcomed twin boys Roman and Mason early, they knew the journey would begin with extra support. Born at 34 weeks, the twins spent their first month being cared for here, in the Level 5 Special Care Nursery.

From the very beginning, Leah says the team helped her feel informed, supported and reassured every step of the way. While balancing time between hospital visits and caring for their older son at home, the family leaned on the compassion and expertise of the nursery team.

“It’s a big thing to leave your babies at hospital and go home, but I trusted the team completely. Every midwife had such a personal connection with the boys and genuinely cared for them. They never made us feel rushed, and the focus was always on making sure the boys were truly ready to come home.”

Here at Calvary North Adelaide, our Level 5 Special care nursery is equipped to provide expert care for newborns who need extra support, including babies born from 32 weeks. Level 5 care is ideal for babies who are medically stable but need extra monitoring and support to thrive. It provides advanced care above a standard nursery to help babies grow safely and comfortably. Having a Level 5 special care nursery also means that mother and baby are less likely to be separated if baby requires specialised care.

Today, Roman and Mason are thriving. They are happy, active, and keeping their family busy. We wish them all the best!

Celebrating our special team today, on International Day of the Midwife!

This dedicated and hard working group (including all those unable to make the photo) help to care for mums, bubs, and families at a very special time. Their knowledge, support, reassurance and expertise is invaluable, and we know the difference that each one makes in the lives of those they care for.

Do you have a special memory of a midwife who helped with your Calvary baby or babies? Feel free to share in the comments, and give them a shout out.

On International Day of the Midwife, some of our incredible midwives share what they love most about being part of such meaningful moments in people’s lives.

From supporting families through the unknown to witnessing strength, resilience and joy, these are the moments that make midwifery so special.

At Calvary Babies - North Adelaide, our midwives are at the centre of compassionate, person-led care, walking alongside families from first moments of pregnancy through to the early days of parenthood. Tune in to hear why our midwives love what they do.

To all our midwives, thank you for the care, dedication and warmth you bring every single day.
