The royal is married to Prince William and has Prince George, five, Princess Charlotte, three, and nine-month-old Prince Louis and spoke candidly about her role as a mother during a visit to charity Family Action on Tuesday 22.
As she launched a new national support line for the organisation, which provides community assistance for families in south London, Kate said: "It's so hard. You get a lot of support with the baby as a mother particularly in the early days, but after the age of one, it falls away. After that, there isn't a huge amount- lots of books to read.
"Everybody experiences the same struggle."
The duchess met with young carers who juggle their school work while looking after a family member and praised them for balancing their studies with their responsibilities at home.
"You all do an amazing job. I don't know how you do it," she said.
It is the second time the 37-year-old royal has admitted that she doesn't always find parenting easy.
Speaking in Mach 2017, she said: "Personally, becoming a mother has been such a rewarding and wonderful experience. However, at times it has also been a huge challenge, even for me who has support at home that most mothers do not.
"For many, myself included, this can, at times lead to lack of confidence and feelings of ignorance."
Family Action set up FamilyLine a year ago ago but it is now being piloted as a national service.
It is there to support anyone struggling with aspects of family life, from parenting and relationship difficulties to mental health and wellbeing, and aims to provide both immediate and long-term support, guidance and practical information.
