Breastfeeding is universal and lactation support is needed everywhere. Katie Oshita and Kyrie Hickey discuss pumps, providers and paid time off in Australia and how those things differ with what's offered in the US. Listen here for more.

Pocast Guest: Kyrie Hickey is an RN, RM and IBCLC from Brisbane, Australia. She has worked as a pediatric Burns-Surgical Nurse, hospital-based midwife and provided nursing care in a Tongue Tie Clinic.

Kyrie now provides Home Visit and Telehealth breastfeeding and bottle feeding support through her private practice, Rainbow Road Lactation. Her passion lies in honoring the uniqueness of each family that she cares for and providing care that is tailored to the values and needs of every family she works with.

Her journey into becoming an IBCLC was deeply influenced by her own breastfeeding challenges, including significant nipple damage in the first few weeks due to an unidentified tongue tie in her son. It was through the guidance of an experienced IBCLC/OMT and Osteopath that she found clarity and solutions. Additionally, navigating postnatal depression and anxiety, torticollis, cow’s milk and soy protein allergies, enlarged adenoids and speech delay, further deepened her empathy and drive to support families who face challenges in their early parenting journeys. You can learn more about Kyrie and her services here, or on Instagram.

Podcast Host: Katie Oshita, RN, BSN, IBCLC has over 25 years of experience working in Maternal-Infant Medicine. While Katie sees clients locally in western WA, Katie is also a telehealth lactation consultant believing that clients anywhere in the world deserve the best care possible for their needs. Being an expert on TOTs, Katie helps families everywhere navigate breastfeeding struggles, especially when related to tongue tie or low supply. Katie is also passionate about finding the root cause of symptoms, using Functional Medicine practices to help client not just survive, but truly thrive.
