Allison the Dietitian helping pregnant women eat healthy during pregnancy

Hello! I’m Allison

I work with beautiful expecting mothers just like you, who are ready to enjoy food, balance blood sugars and have an enjoyable and healthy pregnancy.

I help you feel empowered to navigate (or dodge) GDM with ease, simplicity, and a non-restrictive approach to food that makes balancing blood sugars a breeze.

Whether you are…

+ preparing for pregnancy and eager to minimise your risks of GDM before you fall pregnant,

+ early in your pregnancy and desperate to lower your GDM risk,

+ currently pregnant and navigating GDM,

+ feeling stressed and anxious about the developing GDM,

OR

+ recovering postpartum after experiencing GDM and proactively trying to reducing your risk of T2DM

 

If this is you, you’re in the right place.

The story behind The Pregnancy Dietitian

—

Helping people live healthier lives through good food and nutrition has always been my passion.

Postpartum woman after a healthy and nourished pregnancy with healthy baby

Being a dietitian always seemed like the perfect fit for me.

While I studied, I decided to pursue an internship with a specialist fertility and prenatal dietitian clinic and instantly fell in love with this area of the nutrition realm, particularly pregnancy.

I mean, what an honour to support two lives (mum and bub) at once?!

I decided to up-skill in prenatal nutrition after finishing my Masters degree. Shortly after this, I fell pregnant with my first baby! To say that I was thankful for the understanding I had about pregnancy and the power of nutrition is an understatement.

As I got into the groove of helping pregnant women, I could really feel their stress, anxieties and overwhelm that came with wanting to have a healthy pregnancy and give their baby the best start to life.

Trying for a baby, being pregnant and welcoming your baby into the world are such special times in a woman’s life, and it’s heartbreaking that it’s often a time women find the most stressful.
