About me

Hello, I’m Deborah Galvao, a dedicated and experienced birth and postpartum doula, newborn care specialist, and perinatal educator based in the DMV area. Over the past two years, I’ve had the honor of supporting families through one of life’s most transformative journeys. My philosophy is rooted in creating a calm, informed, and nurturing environment for parents and their newborns. I believe every family deserves personalized care, whether it’s guiding them through childbirth, supporting recovery during the postpartum period, or offering education to build confidence in their parenting journey. My approach is inclusive, embracing all family structures, including LGBT families and those navigating surrogacy or IVF. I’m here to empower you with evidence-based resources, hands-on care, and a deep commitment to your well-being—helping you transition into parenthood with confidence and ease.

Deborah was my postpartum doula helped me with all my needs and also helped us with our older son . She also cooked quick meals for me and was a great and very tidy person with all my son's stuff and everything else in the house including our dog ! She is the greatest!
