Home-Start Oxford is a voluntary organisation providing free, confidential support for families with at least one child under the age of 5 in Oxford, and the centre and west of the county.

We help ordinary people who are going through extraordinary times.

Being a parent has never been easy. Regardless of social standing, gender or culture, it can be lonely, frustrating, heart-breaking and over-whelming. Everyone needs help sometimes, and with our team of experienced volunteers and staff we provide non-judgmental, compassionate support for parents when they need us most.

There is no such thing as a typical Home-Start family and the support we offer is as individual as the families themselves.

We thought you might like to see this short video below that was produced by West Oxfordshire District Council. They interviewed one of the mums who attended one of our baby groups as part of their Be Kind to your Mind annual campaign. Link here: Home-Start Oxford

We keep children at the heart of everything that we do because childhood cant wait.
