    Doula for Immigrant Families in Halifax

    Preparing for a baby is a lot when the healthcare system is new to you. I help immigrant families in Halifax understand their options and feel confident, in English or Portuguese.

    Understanding the Canadian healthcare system

    In our prenatal meetings I explain the physiology of pregnancy and birth and how the Canadian healthcare system works, and we prepare your birth plan together. During birth I support you with advocacy and communication, so you are heard and receive the care you deserve.

    Support in your language

    I'm fluent in English and Portuguese. You'll have unlimited support by email and WhatsApp throughout your pregnancy, and your partner is welcome at the prenatal meetings.

    I've been through it myself

    I'm a Brazilian immigrant and a mother of two. My first son was born via C-section and my second via vaginal birth, both here in Nova Scotia, so I know both paths firsthand.

    Care from pregnancy to postpartum

    One package covers prenatal preparation, continuous birth support with on-call availability from 38 weeks, and a postpartum visit: the Birth Package, $1000 CAD.
