I had a great experience and support throughout my pregnancy. I was given great tips to use during pregnancy which greatly helped my chances at a VBAC delivery. The information she was able to provide helped me make informed decisions regarding my birth plan.

5.0

With the anxiety of my last three births plaguing me, I knew I needed a different kind of support. Something needed to change this time. Aliyah as my support was the exact change I needed to have a birthing experience that I could look back on and smile. She was there during my pregnancy and there during labor. She reminded me of my wishes and helped me stay focused and follow through. It was so strange having such a beautiful experience in something that people often described as traumatic and horrific. Her presence helped me stay centered and created a wonderful memory.
