The kind of 'just right' food that tastes and feels good.

ABOUT US

hi there!

I’m Karlee Taylor and I’m a chef and recipe developer based in Los Angeles.

While I’m currently basking in the Southern California sun I grew up in the home of the chicken cutlet, aka New Jersey. I earned my B.S. in Dietetics from Rutgers University before pursuing culinary school at the Natural Gourmet Institute in Manhattan. I went on to cook in restaurant kitchens, prep kitchens, and private homes, and eventually landed in a professional test kitchen developing and shooting recipes for the masses. 

Although I loved my work, I wanted to find a bridge between my culinary career and my nutrition education. Inspired by my mom, a beloved midwife, I developed an interest in maternal health. This led me to Oh Baby Academy, where I became certified in prenatal, postpartum, and infant holistic nutrition.

My dedication to nutrition through food stems from my belief in prevention, rather than reaction. The fuel we put into our tanks matters, especially when creating new life. A mama’s nutrition carries through many generations.

Today, I balance recipe development, culinary consulting, and content creation alongside running Postpartum Provisions, a boutique postpartum meal personal chef service.

There is a lot of information out there and some of it is conflicting. Karlee began advising me when I was 8 weeks along and made me feel confident about the choices I was making.

The meals Karlee made for my husband and me to eat after giving birth to my twins were truly life-saving! Recovering from my birth was hard, but knowing that we had delicious, nourishing food every night made things much easier.

Karlee is knowledgeable and encouraging of foods that nourish a woman’s body in the postpartum period and I trust her with all my ‘food delivery’ gifts for new mommas.

Karlee was a great resource for nutritional advice during pregnancy, breastfeeding, and with my newborn. Karlee is professional, timely, thorough, and knowledgeable!

I loved the process. The food was truly perfect. What a relief to have food in the fridge when I needed to focus on my new baby! Karlee is the best! 

Karlee’s dedication to creating comforting but also nutritious menu options each week is unmatched. As a busy physician (and foodie), I never have a doubt about the quality and creativity of the food that will end up in my belly.
