About me
Hello! My name is Monique, and I am a certified birth and postpartum doula, newborn care specialist, and lactation support professional based in Fort Worth, Texas. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Obstetrics from the University of São Paulo in Brazil and completed graduate-level studies focused on newborn and postpartum care in Madrid, Spain. Throughout my clinical career, I participated in more than 1,000 births and supported families in Brazil, Spain, and Texas. My philosophy is to provide calm, compassionate, evidence-informed, and nonjudgmental care. I believe every family deserves to feel heard, respected, safe, and confident while making choices that reflect their own values. I offer birth preparation, continuous labor support, daytime and overnight postpartum care, breastfeeding and feeding support, newborn care, and parent education. I also have experience with twins, premature babies, and children with medically complex needs. I provide support in English, Portuguese, and Spanish and am certified in infant and child CPR and First Aid.

Ratings and reviews
Monique provided wonderful support to me and my family. From the beginning, she was warm, respectful, attentive, and very professional. She listened carefully to our needs, explained everything with patience, and brought a sense of calm and confidence during an important time in our lives. Her experience with mothers and babies is evident in the thoughtful and gentle way she provides care. Monique is trustworthy, organized, and genuinely committed to the well-being of the entire family. I am very grateful for her support and would confidently recommend her to any mother or family looking for compassionate and knowledgeable care.
