Bringing Your Baby Home
When it’s time to go home, Louisiana law requires that children are safely buckled in a proper car seat. Louisiana State Police, Troop A, conducts free Child Seat Safety Inspections every Tuesday between 9 am – 3:30 pm. Click here to schedule a car seat check.
Pediatric Care
Before you leave the hospital, it’s important to select a pediatrician or doctor that specializes in children’s healthcare. Your pediatrician will visit with you and check on your baby during your hospital stay and will guide you on keeping your baby healthy through wellness visits and checkups.
