“Being a mum is HARD WORK and we all totally GET IT here at The Healthy Mummy! This understanding and empathy shines through in the recipes, the exercises, the products and the amount of budget and family friendly products available. We understand how hard it is for so many mums to get to the gym, and to make a meal from scratch,” she says.
“We are all tired but so many mums say they don’t feel or look like they did before they had kids, which is why I created The Healthy Mummy. All of the exercises can be done from home without expensive gym equipment. In fact, for some you can use your kids as weights!
“Another big part of what we offer is SUPPORT. The aim of the The Healthy Mummy focus is to educate mums how they can make small changes to their life to become healthier and also show them how they can change their life to a healthy one for them and their family.”
With over 5,500 recipes and customisable weekly meal plans, The Healthy Mummy App does all the planning for you. We recommend 3 main meals and 3 snacks a day, and you can customise all the recipes to suit you and your family.
