From our very first meeting with Afshan, her warm, calm presence and clear communication style felt exactly like what we wanted in our hospital room. Our prep sessions were incredibly informative, and throughout pregnancy she was always quick to respond to questions, offering thoughtful guidance and reassurance.
Her background as both a mother and a nurse gave me so much confidence in her suggestions and support, we truly appreciated her holistic approach to care. During labor, Afshan made sure I was comfortable, provided amazing counter pressure through contractions, helped me understand my options, and guided me in choices that felt aligned with my birth plan.
My labor and delivery were long and hard, but Afshan remained steady, encouraging, and deeply supportive every step of the way. She helped me feel seen, heard, and empowered during one of the most intense experiences of my life. Honestly, if it weren’t for her, it would have felt impossible. We are endlessly grateful for her care and would recommend her wholeheartedly to any growing family.
