A Little About Me

"Most of my clients arrive unsure about what to eat for their symptoms, their energy and their child’s needs. I help them understand what works in real daily life."

Natércia Ferreira, maternal and infant dietitian specialising in fertility, pregnancy, and early childhood nutrition

My journey into nutrition has been a personal one. For years, I tried to follow what others told me to do. But eventually, I decided to listen to my own heart and found my true path: helping couples trying to conceive. I also love supporting pregnant women and guiding families through children’s nutrition.

I was diagnosed with Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), which causes a severe form of PMS that involves intense emotional and physical symptoms occurring in the week or two before a period begins.

For many years, I struggled silently, afraid of what people might think.

Now, I’ve chosen to share my story openly, hoping it can help others who might be facing the same challenges.

After seeing friends struggle to conceive, navigate pregnancy, or face difficulties postpartum, and witnessing the growing number of children with learning challenges, I knew I wanted to do more. I wanted my work to truly make a difference.

That’s why I dedicated my career to Preconception and Fertility Nutrition, supporting couples and families to feel safe, seen, and supported every step of the way.

About Me Natércia Ferreira providing personalised fertility and pregnancy nutrition support

I'm often told people feel safe, seen and supported when around me.

My approach is always focused on understanding the root cause of your symptoms, rather than applying short term solutions that do not address what is really going on beneath the surface.

I take a whole person approach to nutrition and health. I do not see you as a collection of separate systems, but as one interconnected body where every function influences the next.

When I work with my clients, curiosity guides everything I do.

I want to understand the full picture. Your energy levels, skin, digestion, bowel habits, sleep, stress levels, oral health, mental wellbeing, and even changes in hair or nails, they all provide valuable insight.

Each of these signals helps me identify underlying imbalances that may be affecting fertility, pregnancy health, or overall wellbeing. By looking at the body as a whole, we can create nutrition strategies that are realistic, personalised, and truly supportive.

Eu amei todas as orientações que recebi durante a consulta! Gostei muito de como a adaptação para uma alimentação mais saudável pode ser leve com o guia alimentar que a Natercia monta sem mexer muito na rotina, mas tornando-a mais saudável, sem falar na lista do supermercado que me deu uma luz enorme de itens essenciais que não podem faltar aqui em casa!! Amei!! Simplesmente maravilhosa!!

Natercia is an excellent profissinal. She has helped me on this journey of primarily losing weight and it has gone very well. She gave crucial vitamins, very friendly and very attentive. She is very professional. I like the way she explains everything well.

I had an amazing experience with this nutritionist. Her approach is incredibly warm, welcoming, and fully personalized to your health needs. She works with lightness, empathy, and deep understanding, guiding you through nutritional re-education in a way that feels natural and supportive. She was essential in helping me on my journey to becoming a mother from supplementation to every phase of the process and she works closely with both partners, which makes the whole experience even more special. The care she provides is truly tailored, and the results are wonderful. I highly recommend her. An outstanding professional with a compassionate heart!

Natercia is an incredible professional. She has helped me throughout my pregnancy and she has been giving me a lot of support with my baby who has developed Cow’s Milk Allergy. She is extremely responsive, easy to reach, friendly and has a lot of knowledge around NHS guidelines. I could not recommend her enough.

Natercia é uma profissional com profundo conhecimento na área. Meu marido e eu fizemos acompanhamento por três meses e tivemos tratamentos diferentes, de acordo com as necessidades de cada um, tanto no plano alimentar quanto na suplementação, o que nos ajudou bastante a alcançar nossos objetivos de perda de peso e melhora da fertilidade. Além disso, tivemos um atendimento de qualidade, e todas as dúvidas que surgiam após as consultas eram prontamente respondidas por WhatsApp. Recomendo o trabalho dela.

Natércia is an excellent professional, competent, incredibly attentive, and kind. I started seeing her right at the beginning of my pregnancy, and following the meal plan she gave me has been really easy. She recommends great vitamins and always helps me find good, pregnancy-safe products. She’s super accessible and always happy to answer any questions I have about food or supplements.

I’ve had the absolute pleasure of being Natercia’s patient since the moment I found out I was pregnant, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better professional to accompany me through such an important journey. From the very beginning, Natercia has been incredibly approachable, compassionate, and knowledgeable. In her, I found not only an excellent healthcare provider but also someone I could fully trust — someone who made me feel safe, heard, and cared for. Her deep understanding of the latest studies and evidence-based practices is always clear, and it gives me great confidence knowing that my health and my baby’s health are in such capable hands. Living in the UK, far from my family and the doctors I’ve known all my life, finding Natercia has been a true blessing. Her focus is always on the patient’s wellbeing, and that dedication shines through in every interaction. I’m grateful to continue this journey with her, and I know I’ll remain her patient moving forward.
