Hi, I’m Holly owner of Bloom Oldham.

I am so excited to bring Bloom classes to Oldham and surrounding areas!
My background is in education where I was an experienced teacher and senior leader within a primary school. I have always had a passion for teaching and there is nothing more rewarding than helping others to learn. I am also a full time mummy to my very own lockdown baby Amelie who was born in March 2020.
Being a mum is the best and hardest job in the world; having my first baby during such challenging and isolating times was extremely tough on my mental health later being diagnosed with postnatal depression. Whilst I hope you don’t relate to my story, I believe it is so important to be real.
After getting the support I needed, it soon became apparent that hitting rock bottom can be a catalyst for change so I brushed my hair (a rare occasion during that time!), changed out of my pajamas and chose to reevaluate my life, putting my happiness first.
 I decided to say goodbye to my 65+ hour career I had once loved and place all my energy and passion into Bloom. I had taken Amelie to the few classes I could and was impressed with how much she learnt in a session. Watching her clap her hands, shake her pom-pom and learn the movements to ‘wind the bobbin up!’ was priceless.
Attending classes helped me too - I could meet other mums and also connected with others by joining the Bloom Wellbeing group on Facebook.
It became clear to me that Bloom classes aren’t just for your baby’s development but for yours too where we pride ourselves as advocates in postnatal wellbeing – should you need it.
I can’t wait to see you all in class where my aim is to make both of your faces light up!
See you soon, Holly xx
