Hey y’all, my name is Francesca. I am a native Houstonian, born and raised in East Downtown. I am a 8-time super tia (aunt), Certified Lactation Counselor & ready to bee at your service. In 2016, I graduated from the University of Houston, with a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology. I attended The Academy of Lactation Policy and Practice (ALPP) conference in 2019, where I received my Certified Lactation Counselor license. Now, I am following my calling to lend a helping hand to all families. For the last 10 years, I have been employed at Texas Children’s Hospital, where I worked hand in hand with new and experienced mothers to reach their lactation goals. The expertise and knowledge gained from working at the hospital as well as my personal and fulfilling experience as a loving tia, has defined my path: empowering each family on their own special journey.
