Ma Bailey’s, a Leander-based women’s clinic and short-term housing facility, is planning to expand into a full family practice medical clinic starting Jan. 1.

The details

The clinic will expand its services and begin offering both office appointments and home visits for new mothers and their families.

Founded by practicing doula Ruth Bailey in 2007, the organization provides postpartum care to new mothers who need support during a crucial period. The clinic helps families access perinatal care, aids in recovery, and provides counseling and loss support in the aftermath of a trauma. In addition to medical care, the facility allows patients to book short-term stays to help with their recovery.

“This expansion represents a significant step forward in addressing gaps in maternal, newborn and family health care access across Central Texas,” Bailey said in an email to Community Impact. “By combining housing support with family medicine and pediatrics, Ma Bailey’s aims to create a holistic, community-based model of care that centers family well-being.”


What’s next?

The clinic has plans to expand with new facilities in Round Rock and Wimberley. Ma Bailey’s has set a 2030 goal for those clinics to be operational.
