Each body has unique needs and deserves individualized support during pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond.
Nourished Pregnancy
During pregnancy, your body knows what to do. It knows how to create fingers, toes, organs, blood vessels, hair. It knows how to carry your baby to term.
To manage all the trillions of processes happening every second during pregnancy, your body needs significantly higher amounts of certain nutrients. Vitamin A, folate, vitamin B12, choline, iron, to name a few. These nutrients that are supplied to your baby must come from your diet, otherwise they will be taken from your own body.
Prioritize supporting both you and your baby during this life transforming period.
Nourished Postpartum
After birth, your attention as a new mother’s goes almost exclusively to your little baby. But it is during the postpartum period that you require the most holistic support when it comes to your nourishment and recovery.
The reason is simple: during this period, your nutritional needs are considerably higher, especially if you breastfeed. You’re more susceptible to anemia, osteopenia, fatigue, and depression.
So taking the time to be mindful of your own nutrition isn’t self indulgence, it’s a necessity.
Nourished Baby
The introduction of solids to your baby can be an exciting and overwhelming time.
Knowing when your baby is ready to start solids, choosing a feeding style that best suits your family and knowing which foods is best to start with according to your baby’s nutritional needs can support you in navigating this period with more confidence.
And while I hope this won’t be needed, I can also support you through managing constipation, food sensitivities and eczema.
About me
Hi, I’m Corina.
I’m a double certified Integrative Health and Nutrition Consultant and Nutrition Consultant specializing in Pregnancy, Postpartum and Baby Nutrition. I help women navigate pregnancy and postpartum and also guide parents and caregivers with introducing solids to their babies and raising adventurous eaters.
When I knew I wanted to become a mother, I realized that helping women go through some of the most important, beautiful, but also difficult stages of their lives felt like the best fit for my nutrition career moving forward. That’s when Womb Nutrition was born and I got pregnant with my first son.
My approach puts real food at the forefront of all things nutrition and I will always make sure to take your individual context into account. I’ll provide you with evidence-based information complemented by traditional practices and the experience gathered from my journey, as a mother of two, and from my practice.
LET'S TALKTestimonials
Corina showed and shared a deep understanding of nutrition and its impact on overall health as well as the ability to communicate complex concepts in a clear and relatable manner. She took the time to carefully assess my individual needs and to listen actively to my concerns and objectives. Her approach was not just professional; it was also compassionate, which instantly put me at ease. From our first live conversation, I knew I was in good hands 🙂 Throughout our time together, she provided not only expert advice but also unwavering support and encouragement. The crafted, personalised nutrition plan tailored to my specific requirements, made the process of transitioning to a healthier diet/lifestyle feel both manageable and exciting.
Corina’s approach is not about rigid rules or deprivation; instead, she focuses on fostering a positive relationship with food. She introduced me to a variety of delicious and nutritious meals that were not only satisfying but also beneficial for my gut health. I never felt restricted or overwhelmed, I am now excited for healthy food and have developed a newfound appreciation for the impact nutrition has on my overall well-being.

I would definetly highly recommend Corina’s services. I loved her approach into dealing with such a sensitive subject, my toddler’s digestion. Also, the fact that she had an integrative overview and tackled emotional aspects and routines of my child, not only the nutrition itself.

Corina was one of the first persons I reached out to after finding out I’m pregnant. I wanted to do my best to support my body through this amazing journey, and I knew she could help guide me, just like she did before. The pregnancy sessions were just what I was looking for, especially during a first challenging trimester where I was struggling to eat in general, not being able to keep my normal balanced diet. Corina’s approach helped me not feel guilty and get the peace of mind that the little human growing in my womb is getting all the nutrients they need. And that was exactly the support I needed.
Having Corina by your side is one of the best selfcare gifts you can give yourself through this most amazing journey in your life – she will listen to you (like really listen) and adapt her guidance to your needs. I appreciate her candid and balnced approach, we should all get more of that in our lives!

If you want a clear road towards a more nutritious eating style, Corina is your person. I enjoyed the clarity she brought, the structure that made everything easy and her empathic personality. Together with Corina, I managed to have more energy, improve my sleep and feel better in my body, all through delicious food.
Thank you for all your support!

I’ve worked with Corina before so I was familiar with her balanced approach towards nutrition and confident in her knowledge/skills. Going through the Starting Solids program has been very helpful for me because I felt more confident with the choices I made for my baby when it comes to feeding and received step by step guidance throughout the process. Navigating that period has been much easier with Corina at the other end of the line.

I contacted Corina to create a safe weaning journey for my little girl, educate myself about weaning, and develop healthy habits for the whole family. Moreover, I was seeking to learn about introducing allergens. The knowledge she possesses when it comes to weaning and the straight-forward information she provided gave me enough confidence to start this journey. Also, I learned about things I never paid so much attention to before, such as organizing meals in a different, easy way, learning about all the important food nutrients, and especially how to integrate the whole family in this process. Corina’s approach is easy to understand as she adapts to situations and to the person she speaks with. I would recommend Corina for her knowledge and the friendliness with which she explained the whole weaning process.

Corina listens carefully and understands your habits, lifestyle and cravings. She fully managed to help me change my eating habits (step by step) and it felt effortless. I didn’t feel guilty when I added fast food on my food journal :). Therefore, I was fully honest and never felt judged!
I wish my friends and family could write this feedback. They are so surprised to see how I choose to eat now, after working with Corina. How well and energized I feel and how much I started to ENJOY healthy food!

The greatest benefit from working with Corina was a clear understanding on how the breastfeeding process works, how I can influence the nutrients received by the baby, and the straight-forward recommendations on beneficial type of food and the why‘s behind 🙂 It is a must if nursing mothers want to enhance the breastfeeding process and help the baby grow strong and healthy.

I haven’t worked with a lot of other nutrition consultants before, just one and my request back then was to improve my overall health, I was not focusing necessarily on TTC. Corina’s approach was much clearer and the session was spontaneous and learned a lot of things.
She is super well-organized, prompt in responding to questions and open to address any sort of topic. I loved the booklet she’s provided after the session and I still read it from time to time when I want to refresh things.
Got a very nice feeling after the one-off session, sort of confidence that we will eventually get there, as long as we are following the guidelines and remain positive and motivated 🙂

There were multiple benefits I got from working with Corina, probably the greatest of them is the booklet with customized recommendations – that is so valuable to have, it’s filled with practical advice and it comes in very handy (can access it at any times for inspiration when missing ideas on what to cook next that is also nourishing for me). Another great benefit was that you made me curious to learn more about hormonal health and how I can support that better, leading to a body and mind that are prepared for a successful pregnancy. You inspired me to want to know more and this is ultimately a great thing to do for oneself in the long run.
Corina looks at the overall picture, coming with more of a holistic approach, which is just what we all need.

I contacted Corina because I wanted to be more aware of how my food choices affect my body, mood, and energy. I wanted to learn how to make healthier food choices in general.
Corina gave me personalised advice and helped me become more aware of the direct connection between food (but also stress) and physical reactions/wellbeing. I would definitely recommend her services for tailor-made advice/recommendations, super useful and well-structured information.
Laura
/ General Nutrition
Corina has a great ability to easily explain and argument recommendations provided in a way that achieves long term habits, rather than just treating symptoms.
She has a human, caring approach, that puts the client needs first and an extremely detailed and documented set of personalized recommendations. She’s given me detailed info on my nutrition needs and balanced direction towards wiser choices, without being too overwhelming.
I would recommend her services to anyone in need of a trustworthy, caring and eye opening source of nutrition advice and info.

I absolutely recommend Womb Nutrition by Corina Nicolae. Nutrition is essential for a healthy pregnancy and Corina’s approach is science based, which I valued and trusted.
She is empathetic, friendly and caring. Her passion, science based approach and ethics brought immense value to me and my baby. She is reliable, informed, empathetic and caring and her services are a must-have during pregnancy.
Ioana
/ Pregnancy Nutrition
Corina is not your average “quick way to lose weight or something” nutritionist, she teaches you how to be mindful about eating and about your well-being for the long run, which is more important to me than some number on the scale. She gives you the information and tools you need to be able to transform this into your day-to-day routine.
My main goal was to try to be as healthy as possible for my baby, so Corina’s approach, which is to teach you how to cater for your body’s needs was exactly what I wanted and needed, without the pressure of trying to reach a number or a goal.
I would definitely recommend Corina to whomever wants to change their day to day eating habits without having to bend over backwards to do so, someone who wants a sustainable way of thinking of food, and to whomever is willing to put in the work on the long run.
Magda
/ Pregnancy Nutrition
Corina has a thorough approach on every aspect that factors in – sleep hygiene, schedule, mood, lifestyle, supplements and medication, food preferences, activity level, even women cycle phases and hormones. All this asides from a deep dive in nutrients and how they correlate with our body needs, what ingredients to choose and what to avoid, how to balance meals in order to have the best takeout. Committing to a 3-months food journal is tough but so enlightening and having her constant feedback is an enormous help in the process. The booklet she so carefully puts together is pure gold, it’s literally my food bible from now on.
Corina is passionate, empathetic and super encouraging throughout the entire programme. She takes the pressure off and makes you enjoy this wonderful journey towards yourself and your body.
She made me really want to embark on this journey of self knowledge, where I understood that a healthy and lean body isn’t achieved with calorie deficit and extreme workouts, but with a mix of healthy habits, mindfulness, kindness towards myself and allowance for guilty pleasures. This is the recipe I was looking for, thank you!

Corina is understanding, empathic and with plenty of knowledge in nutrition.
I wanted to know what I should change with regards to what I eat to feel better and make better choices. During our one-off session, I learned new and useful things that I can easily put into practice.
I would for sure recommend Corina to my pregnant friends. It was a really nice talk and I learned a lot during our session even if it was just a short one. I would have loved to try your program during my pregnancy when I had more time to put in practice everything you taught me.
Gabriela

I contacted Corina to understand the link between food and my baby’s microbiome and how to safely introduce allergens. The greatest benefit was finding out that I can support my baby’s microbiome by offering fermented foods from an early age. I have now a more clear understanding of what food sensitivity means vs food allergy.
Corina actively listened and translated everything we discussed during the session into a booklet. She offers a lot of information based on research, including products that she recommends.
I have found the answers to my questions and I would recommend her as I believe she is very knowledgeable about baby food and can help parents if they have any concerns in this area.
Andreea
/ Baby Nutrition
Corina is very pleasant to talk to and knows a lot of stuff. I wanted to broaden the info regarding baby nutrition and I now know for sure what is recommended and what’s not recommended for babies.
