An Expat Talks about What is Was Like Having a Baby in Paros, Greece

What is the name of the city or town that you are reporting on?

Paros

If a friend of yours living in the same country were expecting a baby, what advice would you give her?

Make sure to obtain the necessary legal paperwork to register your baby with the Greek authorities. It is also important to ensure that you have a doctor or midwife you can rely on for prenatal checkups and to assist you through the birth process. You can also take advantage of the many English-speaking childcare services in Paros that can provide essential resources and advice throughout your baby’s early life. Finally, take some time to recharge and relax as a family, perhaps by renting a villa, or visiting the many beaches, parks, and outdoor activities the island has to offer.
