Hi! I’m Ariel. I am a postpartum fitness and nutrition coach. I am a certified Pre/Postnatal Fitness Specialist with a graduate degree in Exercise Science. I have been working in health and fitness for over 15years. I started my own business in 2021 after losing my job due to the pandemic. I am extremely passionate about working with postpartum women. My #1 goal when coaching women is to make them feel supported and understood. All too often women are sent home after giving birth with little to no information on how to properly rehab their bodies and their minds. We are left with losing our sense of self and not having anyone to help us find our way back. I not only help my clients meet their weight loss and body composition goals through nutrition and exercise, I offer emotional support, accountability, and encouragement. Losing my job was scary but it gave me the push to do what I went into health and fitness to do. I’m so happy to be a coach and mentor for postpartum women because you deserve support from someone who will truly listen and understand!

My name is Arlene Maynard and I draw upon 27 years of experience supporting families during the early days of parenthood as both a Newborn Care Specialist and Postpartum Doula.One of the most valuable lessons I have learnt is the importance of individualized support. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with a diverse array of families, including 74 sets of twins, 4 sets of triplets, and 1 set of quads. Each family's dynamics presented unique challenges, and I have come to appreciate that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to care. By actively listening and tailoring my support to meet their specific needs, I have been able to foster a nurturing environment that empowers parents and promotes the well-being of their newborns. My commitment to professional growth has led me to become a Pediatric Sleep Consultant, a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist, a Certified Postpartum Doula, a Cache certified Newborn Care Specialist, an Advanced NCS through the NCSA, a Certified Perinatal Behavior Coach, and I am trained in the RIE method as well the Direct Connect Nurture method. My CPR certification further demonstrates my dedication to ensuring a safe atmosphere for newborns. These experiences have enriched my ability to provide comprehensive care that meets both the physical and emotional needs of families. I find great fulfillment in witnessing families gain confidence in their parenting skills and strive to create a supportive environment where they can share concerns and celebrate milestones. Throughout my years as a Newborn Care Specialist and Postpartum Doula, it has reinforced my belief in the transformative power of compassion, education, and community support. I am enthusiastic about gaining an opportunity to provide exceptional care for families as they navigate this rewarding yet challenging journey of welcoming a new life.
