    I was really grateful to meet Jouanna as our midwife. She’s very professional and caring. She supported me every aspect during my pregnancy, labor, until postpartum. I felt like i have my own family that i can rely on. I really recommend her as your midwife, you will be in a good hand with her.

    We LOVE Jouanna (Zahra) so much!!!! She delivered our baby girl 6 weeks ago. I had such an incredible experience with her during my hospital labor & delivery; she was very attentive, helpful, and encouraging - especially during the pushing!! During my pregnancy and postpartum visits, Jouanna was able to do most of our visits at my home as I live near the hospital which was fantastic!! She is such a kind, beautiful, and knowledgeable human being :) I can't wait to have her as my midwife again down the road! I will never forget my experience with her

    I will preface this review with the fact that I had a healthy pregnancy overall besides major nausea and vomiting in the first tri. Besides that everything seemed like a healthy pregnancy for the most part. Jouanna was my midwife and if I can have her deliver all my babies in the future I would choose it so. My family doctor wasnt super helpful with me finding an ob as I was living in Coquitlam at the time but I read reviews and chose to go the midwife route with Zahra Jouanna Eshaghi. At first I was hesitant as everyone in my family went the MD, ob route but ive heard good things about midwives. It was my first pregnancy tbh I was super worried about everything. I decided to go with jounna as per the Google reviews and I'm super glad I did. Every appointment with her made me feel at ease. She was open and honest and very caring. She made me feel so comforted, I knew that when It was time to give birth I would feel comfortable with her leading the way. She eased my mind when I asked questions and didn't rush me or make me feel small about my worries. She was careful with her words to not upset me just incase and was mindful of how she came across which I thought was super thoughtful as a practitioner. Even after my baby came she made sure she took precautions like sending me home with a requisition just incase which helped us immensely as my baby did have jaundice and needed to go back to the hospital. She was available to answer questions when I had any in the weeks after birth as well. Jouanna works so hard to deliver babies safely into this world to the best of her ability and I can feel her love for it. If she can help you she will. My husband and I are so very grateful we have met Jouanna and had her deliver our baby.

    Can’t say enough about Jouanna’s understanding and caring attitude during my pregnancy. She was always reachable and willing to answer all of our questions. My mom couldn’t get a visa on time to be with me at the time of delivery, but Jouanna made me feel she is my family. We were so lucky to have her as our midwife. She is beyond just a midwife, she becomes a great friend during the best journey of life.

    Jouanna Was truly the most amazing midwife. This was my second pregnancy and I’m glad I went to her this time around as my first pregnancy I was not taken care of postpartum. She made sure I got all the care I needed before delivery and postpartum referring me to the best doctors to make sure my iron and everything was the best it could be to prevent low iron postpartum which had been a problem since my first pregnancy now my iron is perfect and I feel amazing. Delivery was quick and easy she was there for me right when I got in the hospital till i delivered I was alone at delivery but not once did I feel alone I felt like she was family more then a care provider as most places make you feel. If you want the best care for you and your child I highly recommend Jouanna. Truly the most amazing kindhearted women I have met that loves what she does. Thank you Jouanna we are blessed to have you part of this amazing chapter in our life. We will most definitely be coming back our next pregnancy. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

    I highly recommend Zahra as a midwife for your pregnancy. She is super professional, committed, and caring. She makes you feel comfortable about the pregnancy and even during labor and birth. I had an amazing experience with her and her experience made a total difference during my labor that was fast. She also gave big support during my postnatal and first baby's month, always kind and friendly,helping with our needs and doubts. I'm blessed to have been Zahra's patient. My family and I are so grateful for her life, for her gift that makes her passionate about her profession, and for helping to bring our little girl who completes our family. Thank you very much, Zahra!

    Joanna was exceptional in every aspect. Her knowledge, patience, and care were truly remarkable. The breastfeeding support she provided was invaluable, and she was always available when I needed her. Her techniques during labor were amazing. I wholeheartedly recommend her to all expectant mothers. She made my pregnancy journey so much easier and more comfortable. Thank you:)

    Jouanna is hands down the best! She’s delivered both my children and I can’t say anything bad. She’s always available and will always get back to you as soon as possible. Both my labors went extremely fast and the nurses should have called her sooner but she always arrived super fast after they called and the environment went from chaos to calm and collected when she arrived. She’s never made me feel uncomfortable and has always supported what we wanted for our pregnancy/birth. My last birth was quite traumatic and there were a lot of odds stacked against having a smooth delivery, not once did she hesitate in any of the decision making in the labor room and she took full charge of everyone and we had a successful birth and healthy baby in the end. I often wonder how my birth could have ended up if she was not the one delivering. My husband and I feel so blessed and fortunate to have had such great care during my pregnancy.

    Jouanna holds a special place in my heart as she delivered my first baby and supported me through my pregnancy. I had a very long and painful labour and would not have been able to do it without her by my side. She went above and beyond for me, was very supportive and reassuring, and very knowledgeable. 10/10 would recommend her services and will definitely be back when it’s time for baby #2!

    Zahra/Jouanna was AMAZING throughout my whole journey of pregnancy, delivery and even postpartum. Being new to the whole Canadian medical system and having my first child, Jouanna was understanding and was thorough in explaining every process and tests that was required. She is kind, thoughtful and really really cares for her patients. What I love most about her is that she responds to all my doubts and worries whenever I text or call her, and would make sure that both my baby and I are doing fine. Highly recommend having Jouanna as your midwife. Thank you for everything Jouanna, you’re the best!

    Zahra is super supportive and helpful. We have our first baby without any clue about healthcare system in Canada because we just moved here a year when my wife was pregnant. She was the one who helped us get through everything till we have our beautiful baby girl. Words can't express how grateful we are!

    10/5 ⭐️I met Jouanna while I was looking for a midwife that is near to my home. Luckily I found her clinic and I didn’t think twice to look for another. From the first day until the last day, I didn’t felt that I was her “patient/client”. Since I was very anxious bcs it was my first pregnancy here in Canada, her professional experience & knowledge relieved my anxiety, she guided me in every steps of the way! She is always approachable whenever you are in doubt and always make sure that you and baby are in good health. To conclude, she was the midwife that I was looking for and worthwhile sharing this journey- caring, soft spoken, compassionate and committed to what she does. At the time of delivery, she was very hands-on during labor as if I’m with my mom❤️ Thank you so much again Jouanna for taking care of me and putting your heart into it. You never leave by my side even in the most difficult times that I had during the postpartum phase. I’ll highly recommend you and hopefully will see you in my next pregnancy journey☺️ Lots of love, Alyssa & baby Audrey🌸

    If you are looking for a midwife I definitely recommend Joanna. Also if you want wonderful and memorable childbirth choose her. She is knowledgeable and has great supporting from pregnancy to postpartum. Joanna is very kindness and warm-hearted person. I also recommend her if you are immigrants or worried about English jargon. I came to Canada recently and was worried English jargon. When every time I didn't understand, she spoke slowly and in plain language. You may be anxious during pregnancy and after childbirth, she will answer any questions accurately and politely. I had a postpartum mental illness, and even that supported me. And what was great was the labor pains and the great appreciation for the support during delivery, and the very easy-to-understand advice on how and where to focus. And above all, it was encouraging. thank you! Joanna, thank you, we had a wonderful baby because you. My pregnancy and childbirth have been an unforgettable that wonderful time in my life. thanks so much💕 If I have another pregnancy, I will definitely ask Joanna again!

    If you are looking for a midwife, I would highly recommend Jouanna at Metrotown Midwifery. We feel so fortunate to have Jouanna take care of me and our little one during my pregnancy, delivery and after birth. She’s been so passionate, compassionate, professional, caring, thorough, and approachable. I feel very grateful for her expertise and support throughout the journey. Even though I’m sure she’s very busy with her clients, she’s always so responsive and patient. If I have any questions or concerns, I know she’s just a phone call away. During the delivery and after my daughter was born, her support has been extremely helpful! Jouanna, thanks for being so amazing!

    If you are looking for a who will be available at all times, throughout your pregnancy then I would highly recommend Jouanna at Metrotown Midwifery. We are so fortunate to have Jouanna take care of me and both my boys during and after my pregnancy, she was so dedicated and compassionate and she eased all my fears that I had. I had lots of queries and worries about the whole pregnancy,delivery and after birth. She was so caring, thorough, and very approachable and always available even in the middle of the night. She delivered both my older son and my newborn now. Both my experiences were wonderful and a breeze because of Joanna. We are very grateful to have found her. - Amu

    Jouanna(Zahra) is an incredibly caring, empathetic and knowledgeable midwife. We'd highly recommend her to anyone having a baby! As 2 first-time parents, when we first found out the pregnancy, we had no idea how anything related to it works. The amount of information online is certainly overwhelming! Thanks to Jouanna, during each of our visit, she gradually told us what we need to know at each stage of the pregnancy. She also answered all our paranoiac questions with patience. The thing we're most grateful for is the smooth and natural delivery. My wife had contractions for more than a day. During that time, Jouanna checked in on us by phone & home visit every few hours. She went to the hospital with us multiple times whenever we needed to get pain relief, no matter what time and day it was. Her calm, patient and supportive voice made us feel assured that everything was going well and eventually we had a smooth delivery. After birth our little one had jaundice. Although we had read that it's common, experiencing it first-hand while being sleep-deprived was extra stressful! Jouanna acted promptly by giving us the right treatment and it went away in 2 days. That was such a relief! 5 weeks later, we now have a strong, healthy baby girl. We can't express enough how incredibly grateful we are to have Jouanna as our midwife!

    If you’re looking for a midwife, my husband and I highly recommend considering Jouanna (Zahra). I was referred to her by our family physician for my prenatal care. It was my first pregnancy and she made me feel so comfortable and eased so many of my anxieties. She is very knowledgeable (evidence-based information) and competent, and is always ready to answer questions or concerns at any time ( and I do mean anytime). Her care, compassion and encouragement helped get me through a tough labour. Her post-partum care is just as thorough and caring. In the beginning I was trying to decide between an ob-gyn or a midwife and from start to finish,I was very happy with my decision to go with Jouanna, as I do not feel that we would have gotten the same kind of support that she gave us.

  • 5/5 Keiko M. 2 years ago on Google
    Jouanna is a professional and very caring person that I had the best experience with during pregnancy, delivery, and postpartum. Especially, Big thanks to her very detailed support at the delivery that it was incredibly smooth for our first child. Also, after giving birth, the care was continuing to check up on our baby girl and, she helped me a lot for breastfeeding that now I am able to breastfeed well. I would strongly recommend anyone who needs a midwife for beautiful life moments.

  • 5/5 Taz T. 1 year ago on Google
    I chose Metrotown midwifery as I had heard many positive things about midwives and their care service. This was my first pregnancy and my partner and I had many questions. Joanna was always quick to respond and offer suggestions on any treatments and management that I might need.Jouanna was the perfect midwife to guide us thruogh our first pregnancy. She is incredibly knowledgeable, gave great recommendations,kept me calm. In the delivery room, she provided me with lots of verbal encouragements which was very important, as my labor was more than 55 hours i delivered my son naturally and he is now doing well.Postpartu was such a relief as Jouanna saw us at home 4-5 times. I have already recommended her to my firens and will continue to do so. Thank you so much for your amazing care .

  • 5/5 Liza G. 10 months ago on Google
    Hands down best midwife we've had. We've seen Jouanna with our first baby but it was in an office with 2 other midwives by lougheed hwy. This time we are thankful that Jouanna had an office near our house. She did many home visits with us and was with us every step and made sure we were well cared for. We've developed a great friendship with her postpartum and HIGHLY recommend her to anyone that expecting a baby ☺️

  • 5/5 Kate M. 10 months ago on Google
    Jouanna is a great midwife. She is knowledgeable, kind and compassionate. She was there for me every step of the way. She was very supportive during labour and after birth. Breast feeding was the most challenging part for me after giving birth. I almost gave up. Jouanna encouraged me. She showed me different positions and techniques and made sure I was successful. Thank you Jouanna. You are very special.

  • 5/5 Melanie B. 10 months ago on Google
    My husband and I highly recommend Jouanna as a midwife. She helped us through our first pregnancy and delivery. She was always attentive, caring and fast at responding any questions and concerns we had. We absolutely loved having her by our side and hope to be her patients again for any future babies.

    Jouanna is Amazing. She has truly kind heart. My husband and I was so lucky to have her for our pregnancy and delivery. She always made sure everything well before the delivery. We just move to Canada and we have no family here but Jouanna made us feel comfortable and convinced us nothing to worry about Labor and take care of the baby. The postpartum care was amazing she visited us every other day to make sure both mom and baby doing well and healthy. As a first time mom I got lots of knowledge from her. Her breastfeeding hint is fantastic. She is very attentive, knowledgeable and responsive. Thank you so much Jouanna we glad to meet you and having you in the new chapter of our life. You are Amazing!! We looking forward to see you around ❤️❤️❤️❤️

  • 5/5 Tingting Y. 9 months ago on Google
    Highly recommend Jouanna! Thank you so much for everything you’ve done for myself and my daughter. The experience was super positive and she always made us feel comfortable during our visits. She is super knowledgeable, very professional and supportive. I can tell she wanted to make sure I’m cared and prepared for the delivery. She was always there when we have problems, not to mention my long time vaginal delivery. She arranged everything very well during the delivery.

  • 5/5 Negar H. 1 year ago on Google
    I had a great first experience with my pregnancy and delivery with Jouana. She is so caring, kind, knowledgable and respectful. I always wanted a midwife to be a close person and friend with me through the whole process and she was truly amazing. I had a vaginal delivery with no complications and after 12 hours. She was there the whole time and advised me every step of the way so it makes the delivery process smoother. She is always there for you when you have questions and provides a great support. Thanks so much Jouana for all you’ve done for us. We love you and will definitely bug you for our next journey.

  • 5/5 Emma P. 1 year ago on Google
    I highly recommend Jouanna at Metrotown Midwifery. I knew that I wanted a midwife to support me through my first pregnancy, yet I had great difficulty finding one in Burnaby. When I found Jouanna, I knew my search was over! She was so kind, patient, and encouraging throughout my pregnancy. She was always available to answer extra questions and quell my worries. After the birth of my daughter, she came to my home many times to check on both baby and me. She helped with so many aspects of postpartum life - breastfeeding, physical healing, mental health, sleep. Her support was invaluable! I was also impressed by Jouanna's wealth of experience and medical knowledge; it was clear that she does ongoing professional development. She was always calm and confident in her abilities, which helped to ease my own anxiety. I knew we were in good hands! Thank you, Jouanna, for guiding me on this journey to motherhood. You will always hold a special place in my heart ❤️

    Great experience here. Jouanna is attentive, knowledgeable,respectful, and thorough. She had a holistic approach to birth, paid attention to details, prioritized informed consent, and showed patience to both moms and babies. I had a very smooth natural birth without any complications. She was with me during my long labor, she was fantastic. She came to my house every other day, her breastfeeding hints were mazing. Thank you so much Jouanna. I will be looking forward to seeing you again.

  • 5/5 Yoko M. 1 year ago on Google
    We're so thankful that we had Jouanna(Zahra) as our midwife.. She's very knowledgeable and was always able to answer any questions we had in regards to how the baby was doing and what changes we should expect before our next appointment. Additionally, Jouanna always went above and beyond to ensure that both parents were mentally and physically well leading up to and for 6 weeks after birth. She taught us a lot about postpartum depression and what signs to watch for. She was always willing to listen to how we were feeling and any concerns we had at any time of the day no matter how crazy we might have sounded. English isn't my first language so I really appreciated how Jouanna spoke in a relaxed and clear manner and would always repeat things or explain things in a different way if I didn't understand. She never got frustrated or spoke too quickly and you can really feel her kindness I was in labour for 14 hours and went to the hospital 3 separate times before I was finally admitted to the hospital, but Jouanna always met me there every time. She was always available to reach by phone and even came all the way to my home to check on me. I can't entirely remember what happened during delivery, but I do remember her encouraging me and giving me instructions on what to do throughout the experience and am so thankful she helped deliver our beautiful baby. She was also very supportive when I was stressed out for the first few days after birth. I couldn't produce enough breast milk or get enough sleep, but she always listened to my worries and gave me just the encouragement I needed. Jouanna made one of the toughest experiences of my life so much easier than it otherwise would have been. We can't possibly describe how much she has helped us and I can't imagine having had any other midwife. She was always there when we needed her just like a guardian angel.

    I am a first time mom and my experience with Jouanna was wonderful. From the beginning of my pregnancy, she was easy to contact, informative, and very helpful with suggestions and resources. She is very professional, compassionate and understanding. I am very thankful to have worked with Jouanna in bringing my beautiful, healthy son into the world. ❤️

  • 5/5 Lanessa L. 6 months ago on Google • 1 review
    Jouanna (Zahra) was our midwife and I couldn’t have asked for anyone more caring, respectful and kind to have by my side throughout my entire pregnancy and postpartum. She is so informative and explains everything in great detail. This made it easy for me to understand what was going on throughout my pregnancy, which for a first time mom can be so overwhelming. I felt safe knowing Jouanna was just a phone call away. During my birth she brought such a positive and encouraging light into the room. I genuinely couldn’t have done it without her. My husband and I are so grateful to have had Jouanna apart of our lives for the last 10 months. She has been nothing short of amazing. When we give our little girl a sibling we will 100% be coming back to Jouanna! Thank you for helping us bring our happy healthy girl into this world💛
