In February 2022, I started a community café project based in Cascais, to invite pregnant and new mothers and babies to meet and talk about all things birth and breastfeeding. I host and run these events once a month, and we have grown into a warm and wonderful community, who support each other through the challenges of early parenthood. I currently work with my IBCLC colleague Katia to provide evidence-based answers to questions that arise at each stage of the breastfeeding journey. For the pregnant mums, this is a wonderful opportunity to connect with new mothers and learn from them. As a midwife, I can also help with any pregnancy-related questions. We have had babies attend from 1 week to 2+ years and we cover the full-spectrum of questions from the early days, to introducing solids, and onto weaning. My WhatsApp group has grown significantly and is an additional resource of good information and holistic tips. If you are interested in joining this group, please message me on WhatsApp.
