ABOUT ME
Chiara M. Estes RD, LDN &
Fertility Nutrition Coach
Hi, I'm Chiara! I am a faithful Catholic, wife, mama, and Registered Dietitian who is passionate about fertility awareness and women's health.
I completed my Bachelor's of Science in Nutrition and Dietetics with a minor in Psychology from The University of New Hampshire. I then went on to complete my post graduate Dietetic Internship at The University of Massachusetts Amherst.
After becoming a Registered Dietitian I worked many years in Inpatient Clinical, inpatient rehab, and weight management telehealth consulting.
During this time I also got married. And, like most who get married, I went on hormonal birth control. I did not realize how important my fertility was to my overall health and wellbeing until hormonal birth control took it away. I was not myself. And that is when a light went off- this is not how it needs to be.
Since then I have learned so much about all Fertility Awareness and all of the biomarkers our bodies give us every single day that point to our health. Fertility is a sign of health. And, like many areas of health, nutrition is key to healing. My background as a Registered Dietitian allowed me to take that nutrition knowledge and focus on nutrition specific to promote hormone balance.
My nutrition philosophy is never a "one size fits all" approach. I truly believe it is best to meet clients where they are at and help them to build sustainable lifestyle habits and learn to eat in a realistic way that will help improve their fertility.
