Meet Your Facilitator
Janelle Turk
Lead Facilitator, Registered Nurse, Menopause Society Certified Practitioner
Hi, I’m Janelle—Registered Nurse, Certified Breastfeeding Specialist, Menopause Society Certified Practitioner, and The Mama Coach.
I’ve been a Registered Nurse since 2006, with most of my experience rooted in rural healthcare. In 2018, I joined The Mama Coach to help fill the gap I saw in support for parents with little ones. Since then, my practice has grown to include both Maternal Child Health and Women’s Health—offering compassionate, evidence-based care every step of the way.
In January 2024, I became a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist (CBS) to deepen the support I offer to new parents navigating feeding. Then, in October 2024, I expanded my practice again to include perimenopause and menopause care, becoming a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner (MSCP). I’m passionate about helping women feel heard, informed, and supported throughout every life stage.
As a Mama Coach, I use my nursing expertise to provide individualized assessments, care planning, and hands-on support. I’m also a mom of four, and each of my babies taught me that no two journeys are the same—something I carry into every consultation.
Whether you’re navigating the early days of parenthood or the transitions of midlife, I’m here to guide you with empathy, evidence, and real-world solutions. My services are available virtually, in-home, and in-clinic at Holistic Physiotherapy & Wellness in Saskatoon.
Let’s work together to make parenthood—and perimenopause to menopause—feel a little easier.
