I’m passionate about providing wholesome, healing meals designed specifically to support the unique needs of a body that has just given birth. Simple and delicious, this food also feeds the household.
During the weeks that follow birth, being fed well can dramatically change your experience. The right food will help to regulate hormones and support milk production while providing much needed comfort. Just taking meal planning off of your mind offers the opportunity to be present. You deserve time and space to enjoy your new baby, and to be honored and taken care of as you recover from birth .
Each meal or snack will focus on protein, the vitamins and minerals you need most during this time, herbs, spices and methods to aid absorption and digestion. With fortifying broths, stews and soups at the center, we’ll design a menu that evolves through the weeks and is just right for you.
