Victoria Relph

Birth & Postnatal Doula

Antenatal, Birth and Postnatal Doula

Trainee Breastfeeding Counsellor

Support from early pregnancy to the postnatal period in Dover, Deal, Folkestone and Thanet.

Hi, I’m Victoria, a mum living in the Dover area. My passion is in supporting families navigate the complicating and often overwhelming maternity system and increasing your chances of a physiological birth wherever possible.

My training is under the mentorship of Evony Lynch of the Holistic Doula School, a course that focusses on empowering birthing people to make their own informed choices for their own individual journey. I support this by providing evidence-based information, emotional and practical support, and signposting to resources and community links.  I am available as a doula for the prenatal, birth, and postnatal time, as well as in a virtual capacity.

I have experience as a peer supporter at Deal Breastfeeding Support Group, and I am currently training to become a Breastfeeding Counsellor with the Association of Breastfeeding Mothers. I am a keen reader and have a library of books on pregnancy, birth and breastfeeding that you will be able to access as a client. As a neurodivergent mother I am also particularly aware of how this can impact a person’s experience and how support can be tailored to meet your needs.

If you would like to know more about how I can work with you, please feel free to contact me, I would love to hear from you. I offer one free no obligation meeting to see if we would be a good fit.
