Kayla Mehr
Virtual Personal Trainer/Pre-Postnatal Expert
Kayla Mehr is Boston’s premier Pre and Postnatal Specialist!
Kayla grew up in an Italian family that used food as a way to come together and socialize. Although she had danced, strength trained, and ran cross country in school, she always struggled with her weight. It wasn’t until college that Kayla decided it was time to make changes in her life. After learning “smarter” ways of working out rather than “harder” and learning more about nutrition, Kayla lost 30 pounds and that is where her passion for health and fitness began.
She has been a Personal Trainer for over 12 years and pre and postnatal certified for 9. She’s worked with tons of expecting moms and when it came time for her to become pregnant she took a harder look at all the conflicting and confusing information out there about working out while pregnant. She dove in and did extensive research and even interviewed doctors, nutritionists and moms to fully understand how working out effects the mom and growing baby.
Kayla has created a tried and true pre & postnatal training program that is safe, effective and enjoyable. Not only will she keep you strong throughout pregnancy and prepare you for the marathon of motherhood, but she will help you recover quickly and safely! She also has a huge community in Boston of pre/postnatal recourses and other moms who can help support you every step of the way.

Nutrition
“I worked out with Kayla throughout my pregnancy. I had such a smooth, symptom free pregnancy and I credit that to working out and staying active. No aches or pains, fatigue, or major swelling. Kayla thoughtfully tailored each session to the changes my body was experiencing so that they were always challenging and toning, but never too much for me to handle at any given time in my pregnancy. I actually think my arms became the most toned they have ever been- pregnant or not. In delivery, my midwives commented on my strength which I attributed to my workouts with Kayla. So glad I had stayed fit and strong throughout my pregnancy because I don’t know that I could have delivered my 9+lbs baby naturally without the preparation.”
