Born from Loss, Built with Love.

A space of gentle support — created by a nurse, mother, and woman who’s walked through deep loss and healing.

Hi, I’m Aziza — founder of The Knotted Nurse, registered nurse, and most importantly, a mother who’s lived through the quiet heartbreaks that too many women face in silence.

When my daughter was a toddler, I was surprised to find out I was pregnant again — not with one, but two babies. I was already over four months along when I went in for my anatomy scan. That day, I learned both twins no longer had a heartbeat. I’ll never forget how long I sat in that room alone, how I instinctively knew what the monitor was showing. It was the most traumatizing moment of my life.

I was expected to go on — to parent, to function, to heal — and yet, somehow, I did. Not because I’m strong in the way people often say, but because I learned how to let grief sit beside love. I found small, meaningful ways to cope, reflect, and grow — even while I was still aching.

Later, when we decided to try again, I experienced infertility and several chemical pregnancies. Through it all, I leaned on my nursing background, my lived experience, and the quiet knowing that healing was possible — even when the path felt impossible.

When I started helping my family and friends through their own journeys with loss and fertility, I realized: this is what I’m meant to do. The Knotted Nurse was born from that belief.

My Story

Why “The Knotted Nurse”?

Life doesn’t always follow a straight path. It twists, knots, tangles — especially after loss.
But knots aren’t failures. They’re tension points. They’re signs that something mattered.

The Knotted Nurse is here to help you gently untangle, hold space for your story, and begin again — with compassion, care, and support that honors where you are right now.

My Mission
