Cord Blood Banking

Storing your child's cord blood is an insurance policy for the unlikely event he or she becomes ill with a condition treatable (now, or in the future) with cord blood stem cells.

Cell Care is Australia's leading cord blood bank. We collect, process and store babies' cord blood for parents throughout Australia and have successfully released samples for use (including sibling release).

Across the world, including Australia, parents are increasingly choosing to store their babies' cord blood, which is rich in stem cells, the building blocks of life. By storing your baby's stem cells you are ensuring that they have access for life to stem cells which are matched perfectly. Further, subject to matching, they may be able to be used in treatments of a sibling or other close relative.
