a registered dietitian nutritionist born and raised in Minnesota. I specialize in helping expecting moms eat confidently to grow a healthy baby while feeling good in their pregnancy body. My mission is to guide you with clear, evidence-based nutrition advice that simplifies the overwhelming information out there.
As a new mom and a professional who’s worked with thousands of women through the Women, Infant, and Children (WIC) program, I deeply understand the challenges moms face. Many come to me feeling confused, overwhelmed, and unsure how to turn medical advice into practical, everyday nutrition strategies. That’s where I come in—to turn complexity into clarity.
During my own preconception journey, I spent countless hours navigating the noise of online advice, support groups, and social media, only to find conflicting and confusing information. Leveraging my professional knowledge and personal experience, I’ve made it my mission to create a safe, straightforward space where you can get answers, support, and the tools to feel empowered.
I believe food is deeply personal—it reflects our history, culture, family, health, and more. That’s why I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. My guidance is rooted in evidence and tailored to your unique needs. It’s not about being perfect but being consistent, balanced, and nourishing. No fad diets or quick fixes—just practical, transparent support to help you and your baby thrive.

Meet your nutrition ally. My clients are strong, determined women who know their health and their family’s well-being deserve more than guesswork. They’re navigating pivotal moments like conception - some involving IVF/IUI - pregnancy, or postpartum recovery, and they’re done feeling drained, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or stuck with unresolved health issues. These women need & want more than tips; they crave clarity, empowerment, and a personalized plan that works with their unique biology, lab results, and lifestyle. Most importantly, they’re ready to partner with an expert who can make the journey simple, actionable, and transformational. Don’t just hope for wellness - take charge of it.
I use functional testing, health history, and dietary analysis to design an evidence-based plan that supports your specific needs. Through my 'Nourish Baby & Me Foundations' program, I provide structured support through three essential pillars: Community, Curriculum, and Coaching.
Preparing for conception - whether naturally or through IVF/IUI - requires more than hope; it demands a clear, personalized strategy. With so much at stake, guessing your way through nutrition and lifestyle choices can leave you feeling overwhelmed and uncertain. My proven approach takes the guesswork out of fertility nutrition, giving you tailored food and lifestyle recommendations to enhance your chances of a successful and healthy conception. Together, we’ll focus on balancing hormones, reducing inflammation, and managing stress, so you can take control of your journey and feel confident, prepared, and empowered every step of the way.
Pregnancy is a time of incredible transformation, and meeting your body’s evolving nutritional needs is essential for both you and your baby. Navigating these changes alone can leave you feeling unsure or overwhelmed. That’s where I come in. My expert guidance ensures you’re getting the right nutrients at every stage, from managing nausea in the early weeks to supporting your baby’s growth and development throughout. I’ll also help you maintain steady energy levels, ease common physical discomforts, and build the resilience you need to thrive mentally and physically during this special time. Feel confident, supported, and nourished every step of the way.
The postpartum period is a critical time for healing and renewal, but it can be overwhelming to navigate the unique nutritional and emotional challenges on your own. My personalized support helps you replenish vital nutrients, stabilize postpartum mood changes, and restore your energy so you can show up fully for yourself and your family. Together, we’ll create a plan that prioritizes your recovery and self-care, empowering you to thrive amidst the demands of motherhood. Don’t just get by—nurture yourself and embrace this transformative time with confidence and strength. This is for you, Mama!
I decided to join the program to prepare my body for pregnancy and to learn about optimal pregnancy diet/nutrition to set myself up for success before, during, and after pregnancy. After prepping my body for 4 months, I got pregnant right away on my first try and felt confident going into my pregnancy knowing that I was providing the right nutrition for myself and my baby. I had minimal pregnancy symptoms and most of my lab work has continued to look good throughout my pregnancy. Can't recommend this program enough.

Through this program I have learned so much about pregnancy, I’ve deepened my
knowledge of nutrition, and gotten better at doing nutrition in my day to day life. As an RD I know what healthy eating is. However, with this program, I was supported in making small changes in my diet that highlighted the nutrients important for pregnancy. Eating well consistently is hard, but with this program there was sufficient support in finding creative ways to make sure I get the nutrition that I need. Specifically, I struggled with finding balanced sweet treats for night time cravings, eating consistently across the day, and getting enough protein/calcium. I have since addressed these struggles through my work with Haley and feel empowered to continue.

My husband and I had been trying 5 months prior to the program. After 3 months in the program, we finally got our positive pregnancy test! The program greatly improved my confidence, knowledge, and preparedness for eating well and getting all of the nutrients I need for myself and baby. With Haley's support, I was able to identify and create habits during my time of trying to conceive that became incredibly helpful once I became pregnant.

I was able to have a relatively symptom-free pregnancy after starting my work with Haley. I learned how to manage nausea, fatigue, and acid reflux as they popped up and with her help they all went away shortly after they appeared. I felt knowledgeable and empowered about my nutrition needs and was able to get rid of any stress or worry about whether I was eating/drinking the right things. I really enjoyed working with Haley and would recommend her to anyone looking for nutritional support during pregnancy.
- Kalyn
Working with Haley was by far the best decision I made in my first pregnancy. She immediately helped me with morning sickness that almost had me in bed all day. She listened to what I was experiencing, validated what I was feeling and used that to help find the root cause of my symptoms. From there, she continued to make me feel so safe and confident in the food and supplements I was using. I honestly don't know how I could have gotten through pregnancy without her.
