JACARANDA'S HISTORY Jacaranda Maternity started with a vision of bringing high-quality, affordable maternal healthcare to women in Nairobi. We began in 2011 as a mobile clinic, offeing antenatal services to women along Thika Road in Nairobi. As we expanded our services to include delivery, we opened our first stand-alone clinic in Ruiru in 2012 to supplement our mobile clinic services. As demand for our services increased, we had to expand our space. We moved to our current Kahawa West clinic in 2014. Since this move, we have been able to expand our offerings to include more comprehensive maternal health, pediatric health, and general consultation services. Since our founding, we have conducted over 4,500 deliveries and 82,000 outpatient visits and have had excellent outcomes. In this time, we have had zero maternal deaths, a 0.04% stillborn rate, and 66% fewer maternal complications than our competitor hospitals. As we continue to expand, we keep the core tenants of providing high-quality, affordable care at the forefront of everything we do. Our rich history gives us the expertise to care for you and your family, and we look forward to continuing to serve you!
