I don't think anyone is saying Holly's kidnapping itself is him striving toward redemption. His giving her up at the fire station as well as clearing Skyler from accusations of being involved in his criminal activities are, though.
As I said, getting into a knife fight with Skyler, kidnapping his baby, and screeching off in the truck was his breaking point. As you pointed out, the scene in the bathroom as Holly cries for "mama" is the point where he seems to become cognizant of his wrongdoing and try to right it.
