What families say

Long Review from a lifelong client :) I am writing this review to express my gratitude to Medicine of Essence, specifically to Nobashea and Nicoewa, for the exceptional lactation services and support they provided to me 16 years ago, which made a profound impact on my journey into motherhood.

★★★★★ — Carmen, 2022-06

I cannot recommend Nobie enough!!!!As a first time mom, I was terrified of natural delivery. That whole journey changed after I met her. She empowered me, coached me through it all. Nobie is so caring, passionate in what she does.
