What advice do you have for expats having a baby in Riga?
We asked expat moms who gave birth in Riga about their experiences and advice they have for other moms to be. They said...
"It is important to research the healthcare system in Riga before having a baby. Make sure to find a doctor or midwife who speaks your language and is familiar with the local healthcare system. Additionally, it is important to familiarize yourself with the local maternity and childcare services available in Riga. It is also a good idea to join a local expat group or forum to connect with other expats who have had babies in Riga and can provide advice and support. Finally, make sure to take advantage of the many cultural activities and attractions that Riga has to offer for families with young children," wrote a member who made the move to Riga, Latvia.
