Hi! My name is Melanie Maxwell,

and I have had the privilege of supporting women just like you, for decades. Also, I have been where you are-as a woman, a daugher, sister, friend… and as a mom, with immense love and a strong need to know how best to do this thing called mothering. My own journey, plus a strong call to support mothers, led me to a nursing career with a maternal-child focus.

All along the way, I have had an enduring drive to understand how we shape our lives and our world with our intentions, and what we choose to feed ourselves-both literally and figuratively. I am inspired, as I continue exploring holistic methods of supporting wellness, to provide support in a sustainable way.

From these passions, Wellisticare was born! I am thrilled and honored to support you with holistic pregnancy wellness coaching.

Kind Words

  • I absolutely recommend Melanie!

    Melanie's kind and intuitive presence are truly a gift. The safe space she created made me feel so comfortable to share openly as she listened deeply, asked thoughtful questions, and guided me to tap into my own inner wisdom. I left our sessions feeling supported in my journey to greater wellbeing, motivated to take action, and more grounded and at peace with myself. I absolutely recommend Melanie!~CB

  • ...very empathetic and caring

    She had such a good way of helping me to go deeper by being so nurturing and supportive… would highly recommend Melanie as a Nurse Coach. She is very empathetic and caring. I was able to accomplish several of my goals thanks to her great coaching.~PC

  • I’ll forever be grateful...

    I’ll forever be grateful for your time and support. It was amazing that just saying a situation out loud to you made me think about it differently. Because of you, I started putting myself higher on the priority list. I’m making progress in taking care of me and making time for me.~CC

  • ...an incredible gift for truly listening

    Before I started working with Melanie, I was feeling overwhelmed and stressed in my personal life…Melanie’s coaching provided the clarity I desperately needed. I was able to create a plan of action that not only helped me regain focus but also brought a sense of calm back into my life.  What stood out the most was her calming and empathetic presence. She has an incredible gift for truly listening—intuitively picking up on things I hadn’t even voiced aloud. Her support felt both deeply personal and incredibly empowering.  Through this process, I’ve gained new insights about myself and how to navigate challenges with greater ease and confidence. I wholeheartedly recommend Melanie.~CZ

  • ...a great experience

    I believe the positive coaching was a great experience and [for] once in my life finally felt heard. Sometimes “listen but don’t judge" from a coach is needed and Melanie was that and more. Many small goals were attained since health and self- care were a big battle for me…she helped me overcome that and… to make self a priority.~BL

  • I gained a new confidence...

    Coaching…has gifted me with an understanding and nurturing of self and allowed me to see further through a safe space to vocalize thoughts and emotions. I am able to see myself clearer, without hindrance and traverse barriers with ease. I felt like a space of freedom in conversation was established, and I loved the questions and perspectives that I wouldn’t have thought of. I gained a new confidence in my understanding of thought.~MB
