–

I have created a really intentional approach to getting to know my clients, their stories and narratives, as well as their relationships and families. My birth clients appreciate the way I hold space for the journey they’ve been on to get to this point and the way I center the connection they have with their partners. I am simultaneously really hands-on and melt into the rhythm of birth with my clients at the actual birth. My clients regularly share that I have a very calming presence and that they feel really informed and fully supported throughout pregnancy, labor & birth, and postpartum.

Testimonials

“Noshaba is so well informed in the before, during and after the birth process. They are informative and supportive. I never felt like i was alone!” Diana G.

“Noshaba is so knowledgeable, caring and supportive. She is a really good listener, she got to really know me and my partner and was supportive every step of the way. Noshaba was a huge advocate for what we wanted, asking questions of medical team to ensure that decisions were consensual and they had space to make choices one step at a time. Noshaba’s touch is affirming and strong and why I could turn towards the pain. I was able to lean into her consistent support in such a vulnerable space.” Irina Z
