Full Belly Birth & Postpartum Nourishment
As a former Doula, I am dedicated to placing an emphasis on postpartum maternal care and nourishment by offering Postpartum Chef Services that incorporate culturally traditional recipes and the use of herbs to promote healing, aid in digestion, and fortify your pregnancy and postpartum experience.
Postpartum maternal nutrition is incredibly important and grossly overlooked in hospital births. Given the common implications of a medical birth, this attention to nourishing the mother is ever more important given the status of the digestive system post-birth. Proper fuel is needed to build back blood, replenish the body with electrolytes and minerals, keep the body warm which promotes healing, all while being gentle on the gut as it slowly resumes its pre-pregnancy state and begins to absorbs the nutrients it needs to support a newly postpartum body and mind. Postpartum support directly correlates to the blossoming mother’s mental state, which in turn correlates to the child. You nourish the mother, you nourish the child.

Your Postpartum Chef
As a professionally trained chef with over 10 years of restaurant and cooking experience and a certified Birth & Postpartum Doula; nurturing and cooking are synonymous to me and it requires a certain touch to care and cook for newly postpartum families.
Just as you focused on your health and nutrition during your pregnancy, the postpartum period needs just as much attention, if not more.
You nourish the mother, you nourish the child.
