​BEGIN ED INDIA Team

Let's BEGIN Together...

Dana Hardy

Executive Director

BSN, RN, IBCLC, MA, CCE/CLE

Dana works one on one with parents and offers evidence based recommendations to meet their pregnancy, childbirth and lactation goals.  She trains professionals to better care for families with excellent knowledge from pregnancy through the first years.  She builds partnership among those working to promote and support breastfeeding in the medical community and helped found ALPI (Association of Lactation Professionals India) in 2016.  She continues to dream of the day when every parent's reality is receiving antenatal education and postnatal care to support their new baby with success.  Education is not only a personal choice but a public health intervention to save babies' lives and empower parents and children to experience the best beginning.
