Our Services

Lifestyle Maternity dietitians have knowledge, experience and expertise in nutrition for all stages of your journey to parenthood. We can support you from preconception all the way through to the postnatal period.

What to expect

telehealth appointments

Lifestyle Maternity’s Telehealth service is available Australia-wide. We believe everyone should be able to access safe, high level, effective care to support their lifestyle goals on their maternity journey.

After reading our booking terms and conditions please book the service that suits your needs on our online platform. You will then receive a pre-appointment questionnaire, a link to pre-pay for the consultation and the Telehealth link.

What happens next

Ongoing support

Following your consultation you will gain access to the Lifestyle Maternity members-only area. This will provide you with information, resources and activities. These will guide you to set goals, track your progress, and brush up on the latest in nutrition for optimal fertility, a glowing pregnancy, and a happy and balanced first year after birth. You also have these available as downloads from our Nourish & Nurture online programs.

We offer review and long review appointments for ongoing accountability and support.

Preconception

There is a strong link between nutrition and fertility. What a woman (and her partner) eats before conception plays a significant role in many parts of the pregnancy journey.

Preconception Diet

Understand how to adopt nutritional habits proven to optimise your fertility.

Dietary assessment and counselling

Our dietitians have worked for many years with women on their fertility journeys. In our research we have seen many women with eating patterns that do not align with habits that have improve their fertility. We also know from international research studies that a number of small and manageable changes can have powerful, positive effects on women’s reproductive health.

We offer individual consultations and self-paced, online programs as we know you all have different learning styles and budgets. Attending an individual session OR self-paced, online program with a Lifestyle Maternity dietitian will allow you to assess your diet against recommended guidelines and identify changes that can be tailored to your lifestyle and dietary preferences.

Self-paced, online program ($54) or Individual consultation ($160)

Attending a self-paced, online program is a great way to learn in your own time. We keep things engaging, using interactive activities while learning the essentials of nutrition for fertility. An individual consult involves a more thorough assessment of your dietary and lifestyle patterns with a personalised action plan being developed in collaboration with the dietitian.

Both appointment types give you access to the Lifestyle Maternity members Preconception members’ area content with Nutrition Essentials for Fertility handouts and worksheets.

We offer a review appointment (long $88 or standard $70) as a follow up check in for ongoing support.

Nutrition essentials for pregnancy

The benefits of eating well, being active and gaining a healthy weight in pregnancy are well known. However, it can still be hard to find the right information for you, and to remain empowered to make these changes. Our Lifestyle Maternity sessions and resources are designed to assist you with these goals.

A specialist maternity dietitian is trained to consider all aspect of a woman’s lifestyle, social and cultural needs, as well as any pre-existing conditions. At Lifestyle Maternity we will collaborate with you to develop an individualised pregnancy nutrition plan. This will involve tailoring best practice nutrition guidelines to your personal circumstances and preferences.

Lifestyle Maternity’s self-paced, online programs are all designed and delivered to achieve similar outcomes to individual appointments. Participants are encouraged and guided to assess their own health habits against pregnancy recommendations, participate in activities around health goals for optimal nutrition and how to adapt their routines to achieve them.

But sometimes to even leave the house to make this happen can be hard. This was one of our main reasons for wanting to offer flexible and affordable telehealth appointments. We want new mums to have access to affordable, easy, regular check-ins for accountability and support as they create their ‘new normal’ healthy lifestyle.
