Prenatal and Postpartum Nutrition Offerings:

Supporting the thriving of Mothers and Families

Are you pregnant or trying to conceive and overwhelmed by the variety of information out there on how to best nourish yourself and your baby? Or what your nutritional needs are for each trimester?

Are you experiencing nausea or food aversions, or having a hard time figuring out what to eat?

Have you ever felt confused about conflicting prenatal nutrition information, or what would be most beneficial for you and baby, your specific body and lifestyle?

As a Functional Nutritionist I provide individualized Prenatal and Postpartum Nutrition Consulting for the everyday Mother.

First and foremost, we'll take an in-depth look at your diet and unique nutritional needs for exactly where you are at in your pregnancy and set some goals that align with your bodies needs. Then, we will come up with a plan specifically tailored for YOU, meeting you where you are on your pregnancy or breastfeeding journey.

Nutrition confusion and overwhelm is real, especially during pregnancy and the postpartum! Proper nutrition and a nutrient dense diet are of the utmost importance from conception through breastfeeding! This is why, in my passionate pursuit of helping you thrive, I focus on prenatal and postpartum health and education with every woman, making it one of the focal points of my practice.

"Work with Anja if you're truly ready to shine with vitality. In our 8 weeks working together, I lost 2 inches off my waist, lost 8 pounds, my skin cleared up, my menstruation began to stabilize, and I began to truly feel energy returning to my days for the first time since my son was born! The practical (supplement and recipe) support together with the emotional support enabled me to release emotional blocks to food and even exercise and renew my commitment to my own, glorious glow. I can't recommend her enough."
