Doula in Lisbon: Nurturing Support for Pregnancy and Birth

Clear information so you can make decisions without fear.

A calm presence and emotional grounding so you can simply feel.

I am Sofia Carvalho, your doula.

he birth of a baby is also the birth of a mother. And this transformation doesn't have to be experienced with anxiety, doubt, or loneliness.

I believe in a support system where evidence-based information gives you back your power during pregnancy, and where tranquility and a nurturing embrace become your safe haven on the day of birth and when returning home.

How can I support you in this journey?

Informed and conscious preparation to embrace your transformation with clarity and confidence.

Continuous support and a peaceful safe harbor, allowing your body to guide the birth.

Postpartum

Specialized support and a nurturing embrace for your rebirth as a mother and your first steps as a family.

Words from the families I have walked alongside

"Having a Doula was part of our plans for our first child as soon as we decided to conceive. The need to have someone who saw us and treated us as human beings, with loving eyes, without judgment, and focused on the utmost well-being of the family and the baby, led us to Sofia. Sofia accompanied us gently and tenderly on this journey, always deeply dedicated and affectionate. All the availability, safety, and comfort she provided make me want to spread the word that all new parents should be guided by a Doula."

"Hi Sofia!

I want to thank you for your support during my pregnancy right up until the birth.

You and Sara were fundamental in helping me achieve my much-desired natural birth. I am certain that if it weren't for your continuous support, I would have given up. You were sweet and loving with me the entire time and had so much patience. I truly have to thank you for that. 😂

Thank you for your warmth and for the wonderful work

"Having you as our Doula, Sofia, was undoubtedly the best decision we made during pregnancy. You are an incredible, deeply caring person who managed to bring the most up-to-date and accessible information during a time of great uncertainty. We loved the way you approached the topics that mattered most to us. On the day of the birth, I am certain that if it weren't for your help, I probably wouldn't have had the birth experience I did. It was with your support that we decided to go to the hospital later, allowing us to have a birth without the need for an induction."

Olá, eu sou a Sofia.

(Ou: Quem vai caminhar a teu lado?)

O meu caminho como Doula nasceu de uma experiência pessoal profunda e de uma chamada interna que não pude ignorar. Acredito que cada mulher merece viver a gravidez e o parto com informação, respeito e muito colo. O meu papel é ser o teu ponto de equilíbrio: ofereço-te a clareza que afasta o medo e a presença serena que te permite, simplesmente, sentir.
