Hi, I'm Victoria Lynn, a postpartum doula and maternal health and wellness coach serving the DMV and RVA areas in-person and providing virtual services globally. I'm dedicated to redefining motherhood as sustainable, not sacrificial and believe becoming a mother should be a sacred time of self-exploration, safety, ritual, and deep care, not isolation and depletion. I specialize in working with women navigating the often-shocking gap between postpartum expectations and reality, offering practical interventions for physical restoration, personalized wellness habits that fit real life with a newborn and kiddos, and the permission to prioritize healing without guilt. My approach recognizes that your physical wellbeing is the foundation of everything else. When you have energy and vitality, you can fully show up for your family, your work, and most importantly, yourself.

I am a seasoned newborn and infant caregiver with an M.S. in Speech Pathology! This gives me a unique perspective when it comes to assistance with bottle feeds and awareness of nursing abilities. As a newborn nanny, I assist the newborn to ensure feeding progresses in a positive direction, making adjustments according to the changing needs and temperament of the newborn. I have assisted in raising both both niece and nephew from their first days of life through every stage of infant development. I always make sure my little ones needs are met, prioritizing safety, comfort and well being! I also intend to incorporate activities that highlight milestones, for example tummy time, encouraging babbling and providing feedback. I love little ones and they love me!

Since 2015, I have served clients as a Birth and Postpartum Doula. In 2021, I became an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). I have served over 80 clients having vaginal births after caesarean (VBAC)  planned/unplanned C-sections, vaginal medicated and unmedicated births. I assisted close to 150 families as a postpartum doula, helping them adjust to parenthood with daytime or nighttime visits. I love assisting at births but the greatest joy for me is postpartum work. Families are under prepared for the changes that come during the first 3 months after birth. Having a guide makes the 4th trimester much smoother.
