A maternity nurse role in Oxfordshire supporting a third-time mother, focusing on structured routines, breastfeeding support and providing calm, confident leadership in the early weeks.


Job Summary
This is a structured role suited to an experienced maternity nurse who can take the lead, establish clear routines and provide reassuring, knowledgeable support within a family home. A family based in Thame are seeking an experienced Maternity Nurse to support them with the arrival of their third baby. Mum values routine and would benefit from a confident and organised professional who can take a clear lead in establishing structure from the outset. She is hoping to breastfeed for up to six months and would appreciate knowledgeable guidance and ongoing support in this area. The family have previously had a very positive experience with maternity nurse support and are now looking for someone who can bring a similar level of professionalism, reassurance and calm leadership.
