Work with me
Personalised Nutrition
All consultations are personalised as there is no one size fits all when it comes to nutrition and wellbeing. Tailoring nutritional advice to you as an individual can help make effective and sustainable changes that really work.
Pre-conception and Fertility
For those who are thinking about conceiving and wondering how to optimise their health and fertility through diet and lifestyle in a way that is personal to you and your needs. I can also offer help and advice around supplementation and preparation for pregnancy.
Pregnancy
For those who are newly pregnant or planning pregnancy and wanting to optimise health and nutrition to best support you and your growing baby. We know that maternal nutrition can have lasting impacts on your child’s health and so it is worth giving food a thought. I do understand that pregnancy can also bring about some difficult symptoms such as nausea, vomiting and food aversions to name just a few, for which I can offer guidance. I can help and advice around which supplements to take and navigating the foods to avoid in pregnancy. We can also start thinking about preparation for your new arrival and the post-partum period.
Post-partum
The fourth trimester often gets overlooked but as well as being a wonderful time with your newborn it can also be incredibly challenging. With your body recovering from pregnancy and the birth on top of new demands of having a newborn, not to mention next level tiredness a bit of support may be what you need. I can help with optimising your post-partum diet to aid recovery and meet new nutrient demands. I can also give guidance on foods that will give you the needed energy levels as well as keeping you satisfied.
Tired Mums
When you become a parent, tiredness is one of the biggest challenges, it certainly has been for me. Tiredness and diet are linked, we know from the evidence that sleep deprivation really impacts on the amount and types of food we eat. Conversely some foods that we choose to eat can also lead to feelings of fatigue. It’s a vicious cycle. While I can’t claim to cure all tiredness I certainly have some tactics that will help give you more stability and energy in your day. My methods are by no means radical or restrictive and I also know the therapeutic worth of cake and chocolate.
Weaning
Starting the weaning journey can be an overwhelming time for any parent. I am able to help you navigate this. I can advise on if your baby is ready, I can help with planning the weaning journey with a recipe and food introduction plan. Give advice over milk intakes. I can help alleviate any anxiety around introduction of allergens, worries over choking or introduction of finger foods.
Fussy Eating
Fussy eating and food refusal can be a real stress for many parents and it is really common. Support during this time can be really beneficial and make mealtimes a calmer and more enjoyable experience.
Healthy eating and weight management
For those who simply want some support and help when it comes to eating in a more healthful way and perhaps to lose a bit of weight. You may have had experience of ‘yo yo dieting’ and wanting a less restrictive, sustainable approach. I am able to offer support and guidance using the latest scientific research. Sometimes the support on this journey is the most important part.

How sleep affects eating habits
Most will attest to the fact that when they are tired and sleep-deprived, their eating habits change. We know about the importance of sleep and that insufficient sleep is associated with multiple negative health outcomes. But how does lack of sleep affect eating habits?
