Testimonials

New Mum supported in the early postnatal weeks:

I’ll always be so grateful to Hollie. When I was really struggling with breastfeeding in those early days, I felt overwhelmed and was seriously considering giving up. Knowing her experience supporting new mums, I reached out to her for help, and I’m so glad I did.

Hollie came to my home and spent time listening to me, reassuring me and showing me different breastfeeding and latching techniques, which made everything so much easier to understand. More than anything, she gave me the confidence and encouragement to keep going when I really doubted myself.

Looking back now, I can honestly say her support changed my breastfeeding journey. Fourteen months later, I’m still breastfeeding my daughter, something I never imagined would be possible during those difficult early weeks. I’ll always be thankful for the kindness, patience and genuine care Hollie showed me at such a difficult time. If you’re looking for someone who is knowledgeable, compassionate and truly passionate about supporting new parents, I couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Another kind review from a local first time parent:

Hollie was one of the first people to visit us after we brought our baby home, and from the moment we opened the door she was kind, reassuring, and instantly put us at ease.

Our birth and early postpartum experience wasn’t easy, and Hollie listened patiently when I talked about my emotions and anxieties. She offered thoughtful advice and practical support that really helped us navigate the first few weeks.

Hollie also helped me with my baby’s latch and feeding positions, which made a huge difference to our feeding journey.

As well as being incredibly knowledgeable and professional, Hollie was warm, kind, and genuinely supportive. I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for postpartum support.

Hi, I’m Hollie Postnatal support Oxfordshire

I’m the person behind Little Nest Support. I’ve spent the past 15 years supporting families within the NHS, working closely with parents and babies during those early days after birth. It’s a time I’ve always felt deeply drawn to because I’ve seen just how emotional, overwhelming and unpredictable it can be. I’m also a mum of three, so I understand first-hand how intense and all-consuming those early weeks can feel.

Why I created Little Nest Support Postnatal support Oxfordshire

Little Nest Support was created from both my professional experience and my own journey into motherhood. I know how much of a difference it makes to have someone calm and supportive by your side, especially if you don’t have family or friends nearby, or if you’re just needing a bit more support than expected. When I had my own babies, I would have really valued that kind of help.
Someone to reassure me, to listen, or simply to be there in those moments that feel a bit overwhelming.

That’s the kind of support I aim to offer now.

My approach

I believe support should feel calm, gentle and reassuring — not clinical or overwhelming. There’s no one “right” way to feed your baby, no perfect routine, and no expectation for you to have everything figured out. My role is to be alongside you. To offer guidance where it’s needed, reassurance when things feel uncertain, and practical support that makes everyday life feel a little easier.

A gentle note

The early days with a baby can bring a mix of emotions — joy, exhaustion, anxiety, and everything in between. Whether you’re feeling confident or completely unsure, supported or a little alone — you don’t have to navigate it by yourself. Little Nest Support is here to offer a calm, supportive presence for you and your baby — whatever your journey looks like.
