Your pregnancy, supported.
We support your pregnancy from the start through to the postpartum period, with specialist maternal health nurses, a family doctor, nutrition and psychology. Online consultations or in your own home, with no waiting list. You can book a consultation whenever you need one, or have a team that supports you and that you know by name.

We believe in continuous care through every stage of pregnancy and the postpartum period
At The Family Door, we care for your whole pregnancy: body, mind and heart. Our team of midwives and doctors listens to you, respects what you want for yourself and decides with you, never for you. We work from the evidence, because that is what gives you and your baby the best outcomes.
“The support from Midwife Margarida has been incredible. I feel calmer and it is making a huge difference to how prepared and confident we feel about what is ahead”
During pregnancy, questions come up every day, and there isn't always someone to ask in that moment. Many of us end up searching social media or asking an AI, and come away with more doubts than we started with.
“Is this pain normal? What can I do to ease it?”
“I feel so tired. Do I need supplements?”
“How do I prepare for the birth?”
“And the pain, what choices do I have?”
“How can I make sure breastfeeding goes well?”
The membership brings lightness to your pregnancy. You have professionals from several specialties available to you, online or in your own home, and a team that already knows your story.
The support is structured.
We start with seven sessions designed for the couple during pregnancy and tailored to your needs and expectations, plus two more in the postpartum, so there is time to talk calmly about what you need to decide.
In each session we talk about what is happening in your body and the choices ahead of you, including your rights. All of it based on evidence, but kept simple.
These sessions are our proposal for planned support, not a limit. Whenever you need to talk to someone outside this plan, you book a consultation.
