Video and Phone Consultations
In addition to our in-person support sessions, we also offer virtual one to one consultations by video or phone to families living and/or accessing health care in Oxfordshire. This service is now primarily for service users who would have trouble attending one of our face-to-face sessions or have other reasons for not attending in person, including:
- no local OBS in-person session
- no transport
- other caring responsibilities
- health reasons
- challenges accessing help in a group setting

Please don't delay contacting them if you are worried. Your midwife or health visitor can provide feeding support as part of your care and you can ask for additional visits or contacts for help with feeding.
