Ask any new parent — keeping up with feeding schedules, pumping, storing, labelling, and freezing breast milk is already a full-time job. Add returning to work, travel plans, or trying to juggle daycare routines into the mix, and it all starts to feel a bit overwhelming. But that’s where Nourishy steps in. This Aussie-first service transforms your breast milk into freeze-dried breast milk that can last for years without needing refrigeration. If you’ve been wondering how to store breast milk safely or looking for travel-friendly breast milk storage options, you’re not alone.
Nourishy is the first Aussie-based breast milk freeze-drying service to take your frozen breast milk stash and gently transform it into a lightweight breast milk powder that stays good for three whole years. Best of all, it maintains all the nutrients, antibodies, and goodness that makes breast milk so important in the first place.
You worked hard for every drop — let’s make sure it counts.
Why Freeze-Dry Your Breast Milk?
Let’s face it—regular frozen breast milk has its downsides. It takes up valuable freezer space, has a short shelf life, and isn’t exactly travel-friendly. Parents have been crying out (sometimes literally) for a smarter solution.
Enter freeze-drying.
Nourishy’s freeze-drying process gently removes moisture from your milk while keeping all the vital nutrients and immunological properties intact. The end result? Breast milk powder that’s around 90% lighter than frozen milk, doesn’t need a fridge, and can be safely stored for up to three years—a breakthrough in long-term breast milk storage and breast milk preservation.
Just add water to bring it back to its original consistency, and boom—ready to feed.

“I was panicking about going back to work and losing my frozen stash during a blackout. Nourishy turned it all into shelf-stable powder. Now I just scoop, mix, and go—no stress, no waste.”
The Science Behind the Breast Milk Powder
Nourishy uses a patented, gentle method to turn your frozen breast milk into lightweight breast milk powder. Here’s how it works:
- Freeze-Drying Process: First, the frozen milk is carefully placed in lyophilisation pouches in preparation for freeze-drying. Then, in a special high-pressure chamber, the moisture (or water) is slowly removed without the milk going above body temperature, preserving all the nutrients and antibodies that are crucial for your baby’s health.
- Maintaining Nutrients: Unlike regular freezing, which can cause some of the vitamins and proteins to break down over time, the freeze-drying method keeps almost all of the goodness intact. This means your milk still has the same health benefits as freshly expressed milk, just in a more convenient form.
- Storage and Reconstitution: During freeze-drying, the milk is transformed into a fine breast milk powder. All you need to do is add water, and it’s just like the original milk—ready to feed to your baby. The powder is easy to store, doesn’t need refrigeration, and can last up to 3 years!
Plus, Nourishy is a proud partner of Milkify (USA)—a name many American parents already know and trust for freeze-drying breast milk. They also work alongside Mothers Milk Bank Charity to freeze-dry donor milk, which is then distributed to Special Care Nurseries and NICUs across Australia.
Nourishy isn’t just a clever idea—it’s the real deal.
