Novoa Health

Nurtured Medical is a bespoke medical clinic offering support for preconception, pregnancy, postpartum and early parenthood, including breastfeeding/ feeding support and infant and child sleep support for new parents.

Welcome to Maternal and Infant Wellbeing Melbourne. This boutique Women’s health and Perinatal experience founded by Dr. Amber Hart, aims to nurture women and babies through providing consistent, evidence-based, exceptional quality care. At MIWM we provide general and specialist women’s and children’s medical consultations, classes, allied therapies and complementary services to ensure that women and families receive exceptional care in a safe and nurturing environment.

“We are leading the way in healthcare innovation with our first of it’s kind Day Stay Experience”.

This 7 hour stay is designed to give mother’s the confidence to feed and settle their babies in a way that meets their own unique parenting goals. We support mental health and postpartum wellbeing by providing a mother’s helper for the day and every mum has a luxurious day spa treatment included in their package.  Babies are treated to a divine sensory class and mum’s get to choose from a sleep and settling consult, and osteo consult or a baby carrying consult and they will have all feeds supervised by Breastfeeding Medicine and Infant sleep expert, Dr. Amber Hart.

We also offer Australia’s only GTT experience. 

During pregnancy, it is recommended that women undergo screening for Gestational Diabetes.  Historically, this test has been dreaded by mum, but we’ve now made it something to look forward to.

Mums arrive fasted and have their blood tests taken by one of our experienced staff members.  They are then treated to an hour of rest in our divine relaxation room and an hour day spa treatment.  This service is seeing an increased uptake in screening and also promoting antenatal and postnatal wellbeing by linking women in with exceptional quality pregnancy and post-natal services.  As such, we are focusing on prevention rather than cure.”

Having served the Sydney community for more than 25 years as a General Practitioner, I am passionate about the health and well-being of women, children, parents, and families, and feel strongly a good GP relationship provides a foundation of support, information & education, communication between health practitioners, and care.

I believe it is not only physical and mental health that contributes to our state of wellness, but also the strength of relationships in our lives, and the families and communities to which we are connected.

As a sports woman who runs and swims regularly and a yoga instructor (Sydney Sports Stadium) I am an advocate of preventative and proactive lifestyle choices, and am comfortable combining evidence based medicine with holistic care.

In this regard, I work closely with allied health professionals involved in my clients care including Naturopaths, Chiropractors, Nutritionists etc… and welcome this important aspect of optimising health outcomes. This is particularly important in the areas of child health, fertility, pregnancy and postnatal care, maintaining a modern, fresh, comprehensive and relevant approach.
