"It is important to research the healthcare system in Finland before having a baby. Make sure to register with a local health center and find out what services are available to you. Additionally, it is important to familiarize yourself with the maternity leave policies in Finland and to plan ahead for any financial needs you may have during this time.

Finally, take advantage of the excellent healthcare and childcare services available in Finland to ensure the best possible start for your baby," remarked another expat in Finland.
