BabyLand General Hospital: address, phone, visiting hours, admission and Cabbage Patch Kids information
Despite its name, BabyLand General Hospital is not a medical hospital. It is the official Cabbage Patch Kids visitor attraction, retail store, museum-style experience and fictional “birthplace” of the Cabbage Patch Kids in Cleveland, Georgia.
Visitors can tour themed nurseries, see historic Little People and Cabbage Patch Kids, watch the theatrical “birth” of a hand-sculpted Kid beneath the Magic Crystal Tree, adopt a Cabbage Patch Kid, shop for clothing and accessories, and explore the Gardens at Eula Springs.
Admission and the self-guided tour are currently free, so there is no hospital registration fee or patient consultation charge.

BabyLand uses medical-style words such as “hospital,” “nurse,” “doctor,” “birth,” “nursery,” “adoption” and “surgery” as part of the Cabbage Patch Kids theme. These terms refer to dolls, performances and doll-repair services—not human healthcare.

BabyLand admission price and how long to allow
Admission to BabyLand is free.

The official site says most visitors stay at least an hour.
You only pay if you choose to adopt/buy a Cabbage Patch Kid, purchase clothing or accessories, use eligible paid doll-restoration services, or buy other merchandise.
What happens on the BabyLand General Hospital tour?
The experience combines a doll museum, themed “hospital,” store and interactive Cabbage Patch Kids adoption experience.
Can you watch a Cabbage Patch Kid being “born”?
Yes. BabyLand describes itself as the only place where visitors can witness the theatrical birth of a hand-sculpted Cabbage Patch Kid.
The presentation takes place around the Magic Crystal Tree and Mother Cabbage, with themed “Patch Doctors and Nurses” participating in the fictional delivery.
Cabbage Patch Kids adoption prices
Admission is free, but Cabbage Patch Kids and Originals have separate adoption/purchase prices. Prices and inventory can change.
| Type | Current published price information | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Toy Cabbage Patch Kids | Under $10 to about $70 on the official site | Mass-produced toy Cabbage Patch Kids in different sizes/styles. |
| BabyLand Exclusive Babies | About $79.99 for current 17-inch examples | Exclusive vinyl-head/soft-body Baby with birth certificate. |
| BabyLand Exclusive Kids | About $89.99 for current 20-inch examples | Exclusive Kid with birth certificate and removable clothing. |
| Hand-stitched Originals | Starting around $275 | Individual hand-stitched soft-sculpture work with adoption papers and birth certificate. |
Birth certificate customization
Current BabyLand Exclusive products allow buyers to customize the Cabbage Patch Kid’s name and birth date on the birth certificate when that option is available.
BabyLand Bath Camp and Cabbage Patch Kid “surgery” fees
This is where BabyLand’s hospital theme becomes especially confusing in search results: these are doll restoration services, not medical procedures.
Bath Camp is for eligible hand-stitched Original Little People and Original Cabbage Patch Kids with fabric “skin.” BabyLand does not accept ordinary vinyl-head/body Cabbage Patch Kids from many mass-market manufacturers for this service.
Current estimated Bath Camp fees
| Doll service | Published estimated fee |
|---|---|
| Bath only | $40 |
| Repair or replace injured arm | $15 |
| Repair or replace injured leg | $15 |
| Repair run in fabric “skin” | $5 per inch |
| Hair repair | About $7–$100, depending on style/severity |
BabyLand says it will examine the Original and contact the owner for approval before additional repair work begins. Estimated Bath Camp turnaround is 4–6 weeks.

Payment methods

Why is it called BabyLand General Hospital?
The hospital concept goes back to Cabbage Patch Kids creator Xavier Roberts.
In 1976, Roberts began experimenting with soft-sculpture techniques. By 1978 he was exhibiting handmade Little People and organized Original Appalachian Artworks, Inc.
Roberts and colleagues renovated the former L.G. Neal Clinic, a turn-of-the-century Cleveland medical facility, and opened the original BabyLand General Hospital to the public.
That real-clinic history helped shape the fictional “hospital,” “birth” and “adoption” terminology that continues today, even though the current BabyLand facility is a purpose-built visitor attraction and retail destination rather than a healthcare provider.
