Who Are We

Most hospitals give you six minutes.
We give you the time your child deserves.

Hope Children’s & Neonatal Hospital is a premium paediatric and neonatal centre founded by Dr. Anthonia Shagaya, a US-trained specialist in General Paediatrics and Paediatric Infectious Diseases with over a decade of practice in Nigeria.

We exist because parents deserve more than a rushed consultation and a prescription they do not fully understand. Every family that walks through our doors gets a doctor who sits with them, explains everything clearly, and is there whenever you have more questions.

This is not just a hospital. It’s your child’s medical home.

Our Promise

Care You Can Trust at Every Stage

Protocol-driven, evidence-based care — from the first days of newborn life through every childhood milestone.

Why families choose us

Your child deserves a doctor
who actually knows them.

Unhurried by design

Our consultations are never rushed. We build our schedule around depth of care, not volume of patients. You will always leave with every question answered.

The same doctor, every time

Every registered family has a named doctor who reviews the full history at every visit. No starting from scratch. No retelling the story.

Evidence-based, explained in plain language

Every clinical decision follows current evidence-based protocols, and every decision is explained in language you can understand and act on.

A space that feels like home

We designed every detail of Hope Children's — the consultation rooms, the waiting area, the check-in experience — to feel calm, warm, and welcoming. Because a frightened parent cannot hear what a doctor is saying.


MEET DR. SHAGAYA

Founded by a specialist who has seen exactly what Nigerian families deserve, and exactly what they have been missing.

 Dr. Anthonia Shagaya trained in the United States in General Paediatrics, with a subspecialty in Paediatric Infectious Diseases. After more than a decade of practice in Nigeria, she founded Hope Children’s to answer a question she could no longer ignore: why should a child’s access to unhurried, expert care depend on where they were born, or who their parents know?

Hope Children’s is her answer
