WOW! Elise is amazing!! I had the privilege of being coached by Elise after my second C-section, and my recovery this time around has been incredible! I am so grateful to Elise for giving me to tools to take control of my health and recovery. I can't thank her enough!

Before Elise started making meals for me, I kept forgetting to eat and when I would eat, it would be something that lacked nutrients because it was quick and easy. I had difficulty finding the time to prepare something healthy. I felt taken care of during a time when I was neglecting myself. Hiring a postpartum chef is really an incredible idea! It takes a while to get back into the swing of things after giving birth – and providing this kind of help during the postpartum period is wonderful. This has been REALLY helpful for me – Thank you!

Elise's blueberry-walnut postpartum cookies are the best! Not only are they delicious and made exclusively of whole foods, but the oats helped support my milk supply.
