Ready to make a bigger difference beyond birth?

 

Are you interested in supporting women after pregnancy, but unsure how to bring recovery, lactation and maternal wellbeing together in your consultations?

 
Do you want the specialist knowledge and practical skills to make postpartum care a meaningful part of your practice?

 After birth, women may be managing physical recovery, changing feeding demands and disrupted routines while much of the attention shifts to their baby. As their dietitian, you can help make their own nutrition and wellbeing a priority.

 

Postpartum is an important part of the first 1,000 days. You can make a difference.

Nutrition care during this stage involves understanding a woman’s clinical needs alongside her appetite, food access, feeding choices, cultural practices and available support. Effective recommendations need to fit the realities of her life.

Helping a mother feel heard, nourished and supported is a valuable contribution to her care and her family’s wellbeing.

This nine-week program brings together specialist education, consultation skills, practical resources and mentoring to help you provide personalised postpartum care and develop your specialist practice.

Imagine building a practice where mothers feel heard, supported and confident taking care of themselves…

One of the most rewarding parts of being a postpartum dietitian is helping a woman find a manageable way to care for herself while caring for her baby. Your guidance can help her understand her priorities and take practical steps that fit her circumstances.

There’s also an opportunity for dietitians in private practice: meaningful relationships and continuity of care.

A woman’s needs can change as she recovers, adjusts to feeding and moves beyond the early weeks. Personalised consultations and appropriate follow-up allow your support to develop alongside her needs.

Help women and maternity care referrers understand the value of a specialist postpartum dietitian.
