Overview

Opened in 1991, the Lucile Packard Children's Hospital Stanford is the heart and soul of Âé¶¹¹û¶³´«Ã½ Children's Health. Nationally ranked and internationally recognized, our 361-bed hospital is devoted entirely to pediatrics and obstetrics.

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.

Indoor Maps & Directions

Evoking the imagery of the Northern California ecosystem, each floor at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital Stanford has a different theme and animal ambassadors that give you the feeling that you're part of nature as you move through the hospital. A coordinated array of animals and colors helps identify the hospital's department names and room numbers.Ìý

Our large iconic sculptures at the connections include:

  • The train.
  • The momma bear and her baby.
  • The toy cow and dinosaur.

It's a delightful way to enjoy the journey.
