Initial review

Service: Pregnancy and birth doula support with documentary photography

Susana was my doula, and I hired her at the beginning of my pregnancy because we had just come to Portugal and I really needed someone on my side. She did everything, the informational part, yoga with me, massages, and she was always available if I needed to call or message, it instantly felt like family with her. On the day of the birth she was great, she handled everything, helped my husband know what to do, and made us both feel very confident. She also takes lovely photos, they are beautiful and so real, not staged at all, and the price felt very affordable.
