Who I Am

Oxytocin Perinatal Support

I’m Heather Eure, owner of Oxytocin Perinatal Support! I’m passionate about surrounding families with the support they need during the big and beautiful transition to parenthood.

I’m a lactation consultant, postpartum doula, perinatal mental health coach…and also a mother of three. I’ve been where you are and know how hard parenting is! Those early days at home, feeding your baby while sleep-deprived, recovering from your birth, and trying to protect your mental health, are incredibly intense. And then there’s the pressure from all around us and within us to “get it right.” I support families with compassion and evidence-based information, while guiding them to discover and trust their inner parenting instincts.

Recent Testimonials

  • I cannot recommend Heather and Oxytocin Perinatal Support enough! Heather was an incredible resource and support throughout my induced lactation journey as we worked with a wonderful gestational surrogate. From the beginning, she guided both of us through the complexities of pumping logistics, including flange sizing, supplementation, and selecting the right pump. Her expertise was invaluable as we navigated the process, and her ongoing cheerleading and emotional support made all the difference.

    Alba L.

  • "I was lucky enough to work with Heather when I was about 6 weeks postpartum with my second baby. I have primary low supply and what sometimes feels like every other issue in the book. Heather navigated all of the tricky details and helped me really make a plan for what our feeding journey would look like moving forward. She was non-judgmental about our need to supplement with formula, and easy to work with. She helped give me the courage to stop triple feeding, and the confidence to continue to feed my baby in the way that works for us! I highly recommend Heather to anyone looking for knowledgeable and kind lactation support!"

    Megan L.

  • "As a first time mom who didn’t get enough time to research and plan for breastfeeding, it was incredibly helpful to have Heather provide some much needed guidance. She was able to help me find the right breastfeeding positions for the best latch and my comfort. As my baby got a couple of months old and started sleeping longer, she talked me through a plan to adjust pumping while maintaining the same output. She also gave me some advice about other baby needs not related to breastfeeding, as I just wanted to bounce questions off someone other than my husband who also had no idea what to do. I would recommend her services if you’re looking for a lactation consultant."

    Teela S.

  • "Heather was incredibly present and reassuring during our time together. She confidently assessed my baby's latch and gave me a clear, simple set of steps to follow once I left. She was also responsive by email for follow-up questions. Without Heather, I'm pretty sure my breastfeeding journey would have stopped within a week!"

    Maggie S.

  • "Heather showed up so quickly to rescue our family from our breastfeeding issues. I had mastitis with a falling milk supply and a 4-month old who wouldn’t take a bottle. We worked through an approach and she even had a bottle for me to try in between appointments that was the silver bullet. She’s wonderful and incredibly knowledgeable of the multi-variable landscape of breastfeeding, targeting successful modifications that worked wonders!!"

    Meghan D.

  • "I cannot express enough gratitude for the amazing support I received from Heather. Her knowledge and expertise were evident from the very first consultation. She patiently walked me through every concern, answering my endless questions with compassion and professionalism. The tips and advice she gave were practical, easy to implement, and made an immediate difference! Thank you, Heather!"

    Crissa Y.

  • "Heather is a godsend! She came to help me and my newborn get through some of the early postpartum days. She is warm, knowledgeable, comforting, and helpful in so many ways. There were many things I needed that she was able to assist with - breastfeeding support, questions about PT resources, quick meal tips, cleaning the house, getting my baby to sleep and frankly just a break from holding the baby. Heather helped me with all these things and allowed me to get some much needed rest. I really appreciated her empathetic and kind approach. Any new parent would benefit from her support."

    Mandy S.

  • "Heather is extremely poised and professional to work with. It’s clear immediately upon speaking with her that not only does she have a great deal of knowledge, but she stays up-to-speed on all current lactation information. I appreciate her continued education as new information and best practices change with time. Heather is someone I feel like I can trust. She is so patient when explaining and teaching, and never made me feel silly for not knowing something. My experience with her has been incredible so far and I’d recommend her to any and all friends and family in the Austin area looking for lactation support. I plan to continue working with Oxytocin Perinatal Support now and for future babies as well."

    Sarah N.

  • "Becoming a mom for the first time and navigating everything there is to know and do from a breastfeeding standpoint is definitely overwhelming. Heather met with my husband and me virtually to help us adapt our birth plan and be prepared for breastfeeding after we learned I needed a c-section. Once home from the hospital, we were so glad we scheduled a home visit. She helped adjust latching, adjusted my pump fittings and together we formulated a feeding plan for success. Heather is extremely knowledgeable about evidence-based approaches and recommendations. I’d recommend her highly to anyone looking for additional support in their breastfeeding journey."

    Elizabeth D.

  • "I highly recommend Heather for lactation support. In my first week postpartum, I reached out with concerns about latching, and she responded within minutes with reassurance and expert guidance. Her professionalism, compassion, and in-home care gave me the confidence I needed during a challenging time. I’m incredibly grateful for her support."

A perfectionist myself, I love working with families who are struggling with the drive to “get it right” in their parenting journeys. My approach is rooted in understanding and empathy, helping individuals navigate the challenges of parenthood with compassion and self-acceptance. Together, we work towards embracing imperfection and finding balance amidst the demands of raising children.
