Children’s Hospital Colorado

When it was founded in 1908 in Denver, Children's Colorado set out to be a leader in providing the best healthcare outcomes for children. That calling has consistently made us one of the top children's hospitals in the nation and a place parents across the Rocky Mountain region have come to trust.

Our modern-day mission is to improve the health of children through the provision of high-quality coordinated programs of patient care, education, research and advocacy.

The Labor and Delivery department at the Colorado Fetal Care Center (CFCC) at Children’s Hospital Colorado (CHCO) offers perinatal care for expecting mothers with almost any fetal condition, regardless of how rare or critical. Located on the Anschutz Medical Campus, ours is one of the largest and most technologically advanced fetal care centers in the country. Our talented team of specialized MDs, Anesthesiologists, RNs, surgical technicians and sonographers are highly trained to provide a deep level of experience and expertise for a vast array of rare and complex conditions. As a nurse on our team, you will collaborate regularly with maternal fetal medicine specialists and neonatologists. Families cared for in the Colorado Fetal Care Center, who seek our expertise in congenital conditions and fetal anomalies, often transition to the NICU for care after birth, providing team members with unique opportunities to provide coordinated care to families facing rare diagnoses such as congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), bladder outlet obstruction, twin-to-twin transfusion and myelomeningocele. Specialized interventions provided in our NICU include Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO), therapeutic hypothermia, and inhaled nitric oxide.
