About us

Meet the people behind MaterClinic

Pregnancy, birth and the postpartum period bring questions, choices and needs that differ from one family to another. At MaterClinic in Charneca de Caparica, our professionals share the same approach to care: listening closely, explaining clearly and tailoring support to what each family genuinely needs.

We support each family closely and according to its needs, making room to understand the options available and make informed decisions, with clarity and autonomy.

Meet the team

We intervene when support is needed and respect each family’s time and individual journey.

Inês Sousa

Physiotherapist

Inês Sousa has been a qualified physiotherapist since 2019. Throughout her career, she has focused her training and clinical practice on Women’s Health and Clinical Pilates during pregnancy and the postpartum period.

She has also completed further training in the management of temporomandibular joint disorders and manual therapy.

At MaterClinic®, she provides individualised support, taking the time to understand each woman’s needs and develop an intervention suited to her goals and current stage of life.

Cláudia Agostinho

Specialist Nurse in Maternal and Obstetric Health and Founder of MaterClinic®

Cláudia Agostinho is a mother of four and also has a stepdaughter. Motherhood deepened her commitment to caring for others and brought greater clarity to the professional path she wanted to follow.

After specialising in Maternal and Obstetric Health Nursing, she founded MaterClinic®, a healthcare space created to support families through knowledge, personal care and respect for their choices.

She is also a Breastfeeding Counsellor, holds a postgraduate specialisation in the Psychology of Pregnancy and Parenthood, and has completed training as a GentleBirth instructor. These qualifications form part of a professional journey guided by one constant question: what evidence supports the guidance we give to families?

She is currently completing a programme in Evidence-Based Practice, further developing her skills in research, critical appraisal and the application of scientific literature. This enables her to assess the quality of health information independently and translate scientific knowledge into clear, rigorous guidance and educational content adapted to the reality of each family.

Through her clinical practice, she helps parents understand their children’s needs and trust their own ability to make decisions. She believes that reliable information, careful listening and individualised support allow each family to find the answers that work for them, with greater confidence and autonomy.
