Materniteam on your mobile device
To offer support to families outside the confines of the maternity unit, Elsan has developed a mobile application (free to download since 2017) that can be accessed by anyone who’s pregnant, whether or not they’re planning on giving birth in one of our clinics.
With the Materniteam app, future parents can stay connected to their clinic and take advantage from specially adapted, individual content relating to pregnancy and their new life as parents.

Individual care in ELSAN’s maternity units
Check-ups
Elsan’s maternity units can offer patients a half-day hospital stay (on medical prescription) for prenatal or postnatal check-ups carried out by perinatal health specialists. This is also a time for getting the information you need, for discussion and for listening; a time for expressing your hopes and wishes (reimbursed by the French social security system, with the exception of the extra fee charged by your obstetrician-gynaecologist).
With this approach, we aim to improve the quality of our overall care and to better take into account the wishes of families before, during and after the birth. It’s also an opportunity to meet with our maternity healthcare professionals.
Check with your maternity clinic and healthcare provider to find out if you can benefit!
The Materniteam programme
Our advisers at your service
To better meet the expectations and needs of parents-to-be and new parents, Elsan’s maternity units have been using a personalised care programme since 2013. This programme guides and assists parents at every stage of pregnancy and during the infant’s first few months.
34 Materniteam advisers based in our 29 maternity units are on hand to support families and answer any non-medical questions, referring them if necessary to the appropriate contacts. Through the missions that our advisers undertake during pregnancy, the hospital stay and post-delivery, our advisers embody the link between families and the maternity unit.
Our missions, supporting you
Individual meetings with future parents
Our advisors can meet with you and your spouse to discuss your pregnancy and the appointments you’ll need to make, as well as presenting the workshops and events organised by the maternity unit.
On hand to answer any non-medical questions

Visiting the maternity unit
Individual or group visits can be arranged in Elsan’s maternity units to plan for your baby’s arrival, the birth and your hospital stay.

Presentation of Elsan’s maternity services
During your one-to-one appointment, our advisors will present Elsan’s maternity services and those available to you during your stay in the maternity unit (private rooms, presence of birth partners, etc.).
Themed workshops and sessions
Our maternity units organise various workshops and sessions enabling you to meet with healthcare experts and other parents-to-be (preparing for the arrival of the baby, epidurals, focus on dads, etc.).
Maternity events
Every year, Elsan’s maternity units organise open days and other events focusing on pregnancy and parenthood, enabling parents-to-be and new parents to share and discuss their experiences. Contact your Materniteam advisor to find out more and take part yourself!
Room visits
If requested or if necessary, our advisors can visit you in your room after your baby is born to make sure you’ve got everything you need.
Hospital discharge workshops
Your maternity team may organise different workshops and events at the clinic before you go home (e.g. advice on going home or the first days at home with your baby).
Post-delivery information meetings
For new mothers back at home, Elsan’s maternity units arrange group meetings giving them the chance to talk about their baby’s first months. These informal meetings are also an occasion to discuss subjects such as a baby’s crying, sexuality or the return home.
Materniteam advisers on hand
If need be, don’t hesitate to get back in touch with your Materniteam advisor, who can refer to you to the relevant specialist.

Our commitments
The arrival of a child in the family often means spending money to welcome the baby and provide him with what he needs every day. Extremely solicited by brands and anxious to make the right choice, families are often lost when buying equipments. To guide them and help them reduce the cost of this new life, we offer them a selection of partners and good deals on the Materniteam application : Daylily Paris, Jolly Mama, Laboratoires de Biarritz, Minty Wendy, Premiers Moments, and many others !
And because the choice of baby products is also part of the daily life of our clinics, we are working on redefining our partnerships with the brands present in our maternity units.
With this in mind, we have formed a partnership with Les Laboratoires de Biarritz, which produce certified organic dermo-cosmetic products that combine effectiveness, tolerance and respect for the environment to preserve the future of your skin.
Materniteam app reviews
Super appli pour les parents qui vont mettre au monde un bébé dans une maternité Elsan (et même pour d'autres !). J'aime particulièrement les listes de vêtements de bébé par âge et activité.

Cette appli m'a suivi tout le long de ma grossesse, j'ai testé pas mal d'appli mais c'était la plus instinctive et moins kitsch, en plus d'être gratuite !

Materniteam est un outil très efficace pour les jeunes parents, c'est une application adaptée pour le déroulement des grossesse, nous donne des conseils, l'évolution du bébé, les examens obligatoires, les préparations pour la venue du nouveau-né. Mais ce qui est plus important, cette application nous guide après l'arrivée du bébé.
