Waiheke Haven

  Your gentle beginning to parenthood

New Zealand’s first dedicated antenatal and postnatal stay service, Waiheke Haven offers restorative and supportive maternity stays for new parents on beautiful Waiheke Island.

Whether you're preparing, have just given birth, or are enjoying the early days, our team will create a seamless experience for bonding and continuity of care for you and your baby. By collaborating with your LMC, we bridge the gap between clinical care and a peaceful, all-inclusive experience.

Seamless Care

Your lead maternity carer (LMC) plays an integral role in your maternity journey, and here at Waiheke Haven we understand the importance of that bond of trust. They can visit you to provide your maternity care, or one of our on-call midwives will collaborate with them to ensure that you get everything you need during your stay. We also have an extensive network of local maternity specialists, ready to support you and your pēpē.

Stress-Free Environment

At Waiheke Haven, we take care of all the details. From nutritionist-designed meals that support lactation, to in-room baby and parent supplies; everything you need is provided, so you can focus on what truly matters.

Natural Setting

Paradise is only a short ferry ride away from the stresses and demands of city living. Let us show you why Waiheke Island is the perfect backdrop for the nurturing environment you and your baby deserve.

Experience Maternity Care, Redefined

All Waiheke Haven stays are all-inclusive, taking care of every detail so you don't have to.
