Fertility, Pregnancy and Postnatal Nutritionist
From this…
… to this!
As someone who has experienced fertility challenges myself, I know how overwhelming this can feel.
If you are in the thick of it, please know you are not alone.
If you have found your way here because you would like some guided support, I want you to know that there is a lot we can work on from a nutritional perspective, including lifestyle and dietary changes, plus targeted practitioner-only supplements to support your overall health, as well as both egg quality and sperm health to help with embryo development.
Ideally, we would work together for 4+ months before you start trying to conceive (TTC). But everyone’s timeline is different, and any time spent making changes can be well worth it.
Already had blood tests or other investigations? As a clinical nutritionist, I can review your results and explain what they mean in plain language. Worth knowing: I look at optimal ranges instead alongside standard reference ranges, so my interpretation may differ from what your lab report flags as “normal.” (Standard reference ranges are based on population averages and designed to flag disease, while optimal ranges help spot early patterns that may be worth addressing before they become bigger concerns.) If we need more information, I can also recommend further tests to give us a full picture of your health, including your hormonal health, so your plan is shaped around you.
I support clients from the early planning stages of TTC as well as those using assisted reproductive technology (ART) and IVF treatment.
My support doesn’t stop at a positive pregnancy test. I also work with clients throughout their pregnancy and into the postnatal period, helping you nourish yourself and your baby through each stage.
In 2026, I have had clients with PMOS (formerly PCOS) and endometriosis welcome healthy babies into the world. Nothing brings me more joy that receiving messages from happy parents sharing this news along with photos of their beautiful babies. And there are even some babies who make special guest appearances at their mama’s postnatal Telehealth appointments!
Did you know that male and female factors contribute almost equally to fertility? That is why I support both partners on the journey, whatever your family looks like.

FAQsHow long before trying to conceive should I start working with a clinical nutritionist?
Ideally 4+ months, as this allows time to support egg and sperm development. That said, everyone’s timeline is different, and any time spent making changes is worthwhile.
Do you support me during pregnancy and after birth?
Yes. I work with clients through their pregnancy and the postnatal period, with nutrition support tailored to each stage. I work alongside your obstetrician, midwife or GP, not in place of.
Can nutrition support IVF and ART?
Nutrition and lifestyle changes may help to support egg, sperm and embryo quality, and your overall health during treatment. I work alongside your fertility specialist. Unfortunately in life, there are no guarantees, so nutrition can’t promise a particular IVF outcome, but it can help give your body the best possible foundation for treatment.
Do both partners need to attend?
Not necessarily, but because female and male factors contribute almost equally to fertility, supporting both partners can make a real difference.

Do you offer telehealth?
Yes. I see clients in person at Uprise Health in Richmond, Melbourne, and via telehealth Australia-wide.
