Opened in 1991, the Lucile Packard Children's Hospital Stanford is the heart and soul of Stanford Medicine Children's Health. Nationally ranked and internationally recognized, our 361-bed hospital is devoted entirely to pediatrics and obstetrics. In December 2017 we doubled the size of our hospital and opened the doors to the most technologically advanced, family-friendly and environmentally sustainable children’s hospitals in the nation. Our six centers of excellence provide comprehensive services and deep expertise in key obstetric and pediatric areas: brain & behavior, cancer, heart, pregnancy & newborn, pulmonary and transplant. We also provide an additional, wide range of services for babies, kids and pregnant moms.
