For more than 70 years, we've delivered expert pediatric healthcare for children across our region, as the only comprehensive, freestanding children's hospital in the Gulf South. Today, we provide unmatched pediatric expertise with a a bold vision to make Louisiana a national leader in child health and wellbeing.

Our commitment to kids:

Who Dat? We Dat!

At Manning Family Children's, our commitment to kids is wrapped into one simple phrase:
Who Dat? We Dat!

Meaning:
  • Who is that who is going to stand in the gap for all kids, regardless of their ability to pay;
  • Who is that who will run toward the problems and invest in essential programs when others won’t;
  • Who is that who will take their care and compassion outside of the four walls of the hospital and into the community to help our most vulnerable; and
  • Who is that who will help change the health of a generation?
Our answer 100% of the time is, ‘We Dat’.

We are the ones who run toward the problems, catch them when they fall, and deliver the expert care and resources that every child needs to thrive. And we are the ones who will help change the health of a generation.

We are committed to building a healthier, brighter future for all kids by serving as a national leader in child health and advocacy, and by delivering the highest level of care for kids right here at home.
