Pregnancy Coaching

How should you eat, move, and live in each trimester to make sure your baby develops normally? What's the best prenatal vitamin? And how can you get rid of this nausea and headache that won't go away?! A Pregnancy Coach will hold your hand through all the ups, downs, and questions as you grow your child.

You want to give your baby the best possible start to life...

Your OBGYN is great, but appointments seem so quick and impersonal and your messages sit for days before you get a response. You’ve searched the internet late at night, but you’re still not sure you’re doing everything “right” for your baby.

...and you have so many questions!

Your body is changing so fast.

And you’re pretty sure your mom and best friends are REALLY tired of hearing about every weird symptom, self-doubt, and bizarre food craving.

You wish there were someone to support you through this hormonal roller coaster ride!

Someone who has experienced multiple pregnancies herself and actually has the health qualifications to help you understand what to expect in each trimester, what to eat to stay healthy (even when you’re nauseous), how to stay active, despite your complete exhaustion and growing baby bump, and how to work through your fears and feel confident going into birth and motherhood.

Guess what, Mama? You need a Pregnancy Coach like me!

As Your Pregnancy Coach I Will

Validate your feelings, fears, and concerns and give judgment-free emotional and spiritual support.
Discuss your food preferences and nutritional needs in each trimester so your baby gets the nutrients it needs...while also satisfying your cravings!
Emphasize self-care and stress reduction to make sure you and your baby are cool, calm, and collected in the face of fluctuating pregnancy hormones.

Debunk pregnancy health myths so you have the real, science-based facts. Can you have a glass of wine or that second cup of coffee? What can you can do in utero to prevent ADHD and autism?
Guide you through routine health tests you'll need each trimester and help you reduce your risk for complications like gestational diabetes and preeclampsia naturally.
Help you feel informed, empowered, and in control during the most amazing and challenging 9 months of your life!

Danielle DeSimone

Hello! I’m Danielle! I’m a mom of two who experienced my own struggles on my journey to motherhood, and I’m here to give you all the loving support, science-based health information, and reassurance you deserve during this wild and wonderful time of your life!

When I was pregnant with my daughter, Charlie, I felt deprioritized by my healthcare team. Appointments always felt rushed, and I didn’t feel like I got nearly enough education about what to expect from my body and emotions while creating a life.

As your pregnancy coach, I combine the care and attentiveness of a friend with the knowledge I’ve gained during my career as a fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum health and nutrition specialist.

I’ll educate you about your body, explain any scary (or hilarious!) symptoms, make sure you get the nutrition you and baby need, and, most importantly, hold your hand every step of the way.

Is Pregnancy Coaching Right For You?

You want to be as informed, empowered, and in control as possible during your pregnancy to give your baby the best possible start to life - and you know that begins with your prenatal health.
You got pregnant with a hormonal imbalance-related condition like PCOS, endometriosis, or thyroid disorder and you want to support healthy hormones naturally during pregnancy.
You're concerned about pregnancy complications like gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, and postpartum hemorrhage. Maybe you’ve experienced risks in a previous pregnancy, or you went into pregnancy with risk factors and want to optimize your diet and lifestyle to reduce risks and have a healthy pregnancy.
You've been trying for years to get pregnant and you've finally been blessed with a pregnancy! You're so joyful, but also so scared that this is too good to be true. You need more support than you feel your healthcare team can offer, and you want someone who's available when you need to ask questions or talk about your fears.
You've experienced a previous loss and are dealing with a lot of strong emotions. You need some extra reassurance and education to make sure this pregnancy is healthy and emotionally healing.
This is your first (or third!) pregnancy, and you feel like you know NOTHING! You have so many questions, and while you know you can ask your doctor you just don't have a very emotional connection with them. You want more support and a more friendly relationship where you feel safe asking questions and talking about symptoms you're experiencing.
You're an advanced maternal age mama, and you want to talk with a two time AMA mom who knows all about how pregnancy can feel different as we age.
You're still holding on to weight from your last pregnancy and you want to gain a healthy amount of weight and stay strong and resilient for postpartum. You already have young kids and you can't keep up if you don't prioritize your own health!
