I had an amazing experience with my lactation consultant and couldn’t be more grateful for Nicole and her support. She has been incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and compassionate, taking the time to listen to my concerns and explain everything clearly. She made me feel comfortable and confident during a time that can be very overwhelming for new parents. Her guidance truly made a difference in my breastfeeding journey. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for expert care and genuine support.

Nicole has worked with and supported many clients. She is patient, experienced, and knowledgeable, not only with midwifery but with lactation work as well. I highly recommended her!

I loved the step by step information that I was given before scheduling my 1st treatment. Thr information I was given for the recover was really helpful. She was very kind and her work space was very clean. I always received a how are you doing the next day after my treatment text. She was very cooperative with scheduling appointments. I would definitely refer her and if I needed any other treatment I would book with her again.

I was struggling with breastfeeding my newborn and felt so overwhelmed. I was so grateful to find NFC midwifery, PLLC. She (Nicole) was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and supportive. She helped me understand my baby's cues, improve my latch, and address my concerns about milk supply. Thanks to her guidance, I was able to establish a successful breastfeeding relationship with my baby. I highly recommend her services to any mother facing breastfeeding challenges.

If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, professional, and trustworthy aesthetician, NFC Midwifery is for you! I had expressed my concerns about my gummy smile to Nicole and I was certain that lip filler would be needed to give me the best results. However, after a full and thorough consultation, she advised me that a lip flip could be used as a less invasive alternative. Nicole walked me through the procedure and was patient with me and my many questions. By the end of my appointment, I left with a better understanding of my own facial anatomy. I am beyond pleased with my results. I surely will be back!

I can't say enough positive things about Nicole Chen. I was referred to her by a doula, and as soon as we had an introductory session, I knew that I trusted her to deliver my son for our home birth. As a first time parent, I was seeking someone with experience, warmth, compassion and the mental/emotional strength to guide me through this journey, and she has all of that (and more!). I saw Nicole for regular checkups prior to our due date, and she always took the utmost care to explain everything and ensure everything was okay. What I loved most is that I didn't feel like I was at an impersonal doctors appointment-- instead, I would see her at her lovely, inviting office and she always took so much time with me. She explained all of the possible options for choices I'd need to make and I never felt judged or pushed in any way-- she and I were a team working towards the most healthy birth that aligned with my needs & values. As for the birth itself, she handled my very long labor with expertise and confidence. She guided us and ensured that my son was born safely. I am forever grateful for meeting Nicole, and for her loving, expert care. I highly recommend her to all women!
