Want access to experts and specialists in mothercare and beyond?

Knowledge is power. Our aim is to unravel and interpret the latest research and evidence-based practices for pregnancy, postpartum and motherhood. As mums and researchers ourselves, we have experienced first-hand the overwhelming complexity of information, myths and old-wives tales. Even worse, 'advice' is being given to mums without the proper context or knowledge of their individual needs. So tune in to hear us ask experts, researchers and specialists about all things mother care, pregnancy, birth and postpartum.

The Science of Motherhood Doula Podcast

If you’ve ever found yourself rage-walking through the neighbourhood, shouting into the void of motherhood, or quietly fantasising about a solo trip to Italy (just for a little peace and quiet), then today’s episode is for you.

In this episode of The Science of Motherhood, Dr. Renee White chats with author, podcast host, and reformed party girl Victoria Vanstone about the beautifully messy journey of parenting. From learning to parent without wine to redefining what being a “good mum” really means, Victoria shares her laugh out loud stories and sobering truths with honesty, warmth, and a big side of humour.

We hear it all the time “It takes a village to raise a child” but what happens when that village is nowhere to be found? What if your friends are too busy, your family is far away, or the support you thought you'd have just isn’t showing up?

In this episode of The Science of Motherhood, Dr. Renee White responds to a listener who asked a very real, very relatable question, “How do I build a village when I can’t rely on anyone around me?”

If you’re expecting your first baby and feeling unsure about what kind of support you’ll actually need after birth, this episode is the gentle guide you’ve been looking for. You might have a loving partner, a helpful family, and a stack of baby books on the go… but still find yourself wondering, what's normal? Is this okay? Why didn’t anyone tell me about this part?

In this week’s episode of The Science of Motherhood, Dr. Renee White chats all about what postpartum care really looks like for first-time parents. She unpacks the role of a postpartum doula, what support can look and feel like in those hazy early days, and why this kind of care is not just a ‘nice to have’, it’s necessary.

Let’s be honest, mama, the fourth trimester can feel like total chaos. From sore boobs and broken sleep to cold coffee and toast crusts, it's a full sensory experience. If you've ever felt overwhelmed, touched out, or like you might actually dissolve from sleep deprivation... this one’s for you.

In this episode, Dr. Renee White sits down with the brilliant and hilarious Amelia Lamont, also known as The Midwife Mumma. Amelia is a midwife, sleep and lactation consultant, mum of four and now, author of her brand new book The Midwife Mumma. And if you're after a straight-talking, no-filter guide to surviving early motherhood, this book (and this chat) is exactly what you need.

In this episode, Dr. Renee White takes a moment to celebrate International Women’s Day by recognising the incredible women who have shaped her personal and professional journey. Motherhood, business, and life are all easier with a strong support system. Whether it’s a friend who always knows the right thing to say, a mentor who pushes us to grow, or a colleague who has our back, these relationships help us thrive.

Renee shares the connections that have influenced her, from business mentors and industry experts to the friends and family who have been a constant source of strength. She also highlights the importance of acknowledging and appreciating the women who champion and support us. This episode is a reminder that we don’t have to do it alone and that when women support women, amazing things happen.
