‘Prenatal Peek’ studio to open in Bellefonte

BELLEFONTE — Hide and Seek Prenatal Peek, a 3-D and 4-D prenatal ultrasound studio, will hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony for its grand opening. The event will start at noon and the ribbon cutting will be at 12:30 p.m. at 610 Willowbank St.

The ceremony will celebrate the fact that this is the first 3-D and 4-D ultrasound prenatal imaging studio to open in Centre County, and a long-term career goal for owner Jennifer Miller, according to a press release.

The event also will recognize organizations that helped make the opening possible.

Hide and Seek Prenatal Peek will offer parents-to-be the ability to view their baby on a new Samsung Medison A35 ultrasound machine. Clients may bring as many family and friends as they would like to share their experience.

All clients who call for an appointment will be given a customized session along with detailed 3-D images of their baby to take with them, according to the release. Hide and Seek Prenatal Peek will offer families the opportunity to get their baby’s heartbeat captured and recorded into a “heartbeat” bear they can listen to for years to come.

The Hide and Seek studio was created to be a “comfy, cozy, warm and inviting” space, according to the release. Miller said she had many reasons she wanted to offer these services to the Centre Region.

“I had so many friends, family and co-workers encourage me to open a studio so families would have a place locally they could go,” she said in the release. “Historically, 3-D/4-D ultrasound services have only been offered in larger metropolitan areas. Now, these families have this memorable experience offered close to home. I absolutely love my job and when it comes to bonding, which is the area of ultrasound that I really excel in.

‘There is nothing more satisfying to me than watching expectant parents and siblings bond with their new baby. It just makes my heart soar.”
