About Me
Frances Hartley IBCLC
I have been providing breastfeeding care for families since 2016; becomming Internationally Board certified in 2021 and creating Lehua Lactation. I have been a DONA certified doula since 2015.
After giving birth to my first child who struggled to breastfeed due to a severe tongue tie and a complicated birth, I discovered the field of Lactation. The skilled and compassionate care I received to help me succeed was life changing, and I believe every family deserves this level of one-on-one, personalized care beyond the hospital stay. I love supporting new families who are navigating the joys and challenges of breastfeeding and the postpartum period, helping them navigate this special season of life.
