My name is Victoria McQuiston, and I am deeply honored to serve as a certified postpartum doula and infant care specialist. Based in West Chester, PA, I am privileged to support families across the greater Philadelphia area during one of the most transformative seasons of life. With both a Bachelor's and a Master's degree in Communication Studies, I am profoundly aware of the power of connection and the vital role that community plays in nurturing women and families during the postpartum journey. My mission is to create a safe, compassionate, and judgment-free space for all parents seeking guidance, reassurance, and emotional support as they navigate this precious and sometimes challenging time. Beyond my professional calling, I find joy in life’s simplest and sweetest moments—exploring the outdoors with my two young sons, savoring a beloved book at a cozy local café, and sharing laughter and creativity in the kitchen with my husband. It would be my privilege to walk alongside you in this beautiful chapter, offering both encouragement and care as you embrace the incredible journey of parenthood.

As a dedicated postpartum doula, my primary focus is to provide unwavering care and support for families as they transition into parenthood. I specialize in overnight newborn care, ensuring parents can experience restful, restorative sleep while I tend to their baby’s needs. From feeding and diapering to soothing and settling, I offer attentive and nurturing care throughout the night, allowing parents to wake up feeling more refreshed and better equipped to face the day. My goal is to create an environment of ease and reassurance, offering families the peace of mind that their little one is in capable and loving hands. In addition to overnight care, I provide education and emotional support tailored to each family’s unique journey. I am not here to tell parents what to do but to honor and support their decisions and choices, empowering them to parent in a way that feels authentic and right for them. Whether guiding parents through infant feeding techniques, establishing routines, or addressing the emotional challenges that often accompany the postpartum period, I strive to foster confidence and connection. My approach is rooted in compassion and understanding, offering a judgment-free space where families can feel heard, supported, and celebrated. By nurturing both the baby and the parents, I aim to help create a foundation of love, balance, and empowerment during this transformative time.
Working with Victoria was the best decision we made as new parents! We initially hired her for six weeks, but she was so amazing that we extended her contract for four more months. We honestly don’t know how we would’ve gotten through that time without her. Victoria is not only super professional but also so warm and personable. From day one, she felt like part of the family. She always listened to what we needed, respected our parenting choices, and gave helpful advice without ever being pushy. It was clear how much she cared, and her calm, supportive presence made such a difference during those hectic first months. And let me just say, I don't think we could have done it without her! Our little one adored her, and she had this magical way of soothing even the crankiest moments. Her overnight care was a game changer for us—we finally got some much-needed sleep, knowing our baby was in the best hands. If you’re thinking about hiring a postpartum doula, don’t even hesitate. Victoria is incredible, and we feel so lucky to have had her with us during such an important time. She made everything so much easier and more enjoyable!
