*Nutrition before and after the baby is born is integral to the mother's recovery and baby’s development. I concentrate a great deal on preparing nutritionally dense meals for families, bulk meals for at least three days of the week. I work closely with the family to avoid food allergies, but strive to push the boundaries of your taste buds in the most delicious way.
