Are you making a difference as a dietitian?

 

Are you frustrated seeing clients with chronic diseases who are unmotivated and cancel their appointments at the last minute?

 
Unsure whether you're really making a difference as a dietitian?

 

If you’re like most dietitians in private practice, the clients referred to see you are unmotivated. This means high rates of clients rescheduling and cancelling consultation bookings, which is challenging for your business’s bottom line. 

Over 150 million couples try to conceive each year. 1 in 6 couples will struggle with fertility. You can make a difference!

Furthermore, research suggests that what a couple eats during the lead up to conception, during pregnancy and the first foods given to an infant (known as the 'First 1,000 Days') can impact a baby's future risk of allergies, mental health, risk of chronic diseases (such as diabetes), weight, brain development, problem solving abilities, immunity and taste preferences.

Working with parents-to-be to change the genetic programming for the next generation is one of the most important differences a dietitian can make.

This 8-week program distils the experience of mentoring hundreds of dietitians into practical and actionable modules to prepare you to provide life-changing consultations to future parents.

Imagine a waiting list of clients desperate for your help, armed with the tools and insights to be able to give couples the gift of a healthy newborn baby...

 

 

The best part of being a Fertility Dietitian is the feeling when a client thanks you for helping them to conceive. It’s one of the best feelings in the world, knowing that YOU made the difference to helping them make their dreams of having a family come true.

But, there’s another benefit for dietitians in private practice... motivated clients.

 Clients who are trying to conceive are racing against their biological clock, so are self-motivated to get results.

They just need an expert Fertility Dietitian to show them how! 

 
"My consults are a lot more tailored"
"I now niche in fertility"

Last Year's Impact

As part of our commitment to extending the first 1000 days beyond borders, enrolments in our Nutrition Therapy programs last year helped support 42 mothers and their babies in Gihon, on Nias Island in Indonesia, through maternal and infant nutrition and health initiatives delivered in partnership with Compassion International.

Nias Island was significantly impacted by a tsunami, and the effects continue to be felt - particularly by pregnant women, new mothers, and infants. Through this collective support, mothers were able to access essential care during pregnancy and early infancy, including nutrition support, growth monitoring, and early health checks during this critical window of development.

 

In 2025, registrations from more than 150 dietitians in Nutrition Therapy for Fertility enabled this collective impact.

This year, enrolments in Nutrition Therapy for Fertility will support mothers and babies in the Philippines - continuing our shared commitment to maternal and infant health where it’s needed most.
