The Mother Hub Recognised with 2026 IBCLC Care Award
The Mother Hub is proud to announce that we have been awarded the 2026 IBCLC Care Award, an international recognition presented jointly by the International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners (IBLCE) and the International Lactation Consultant Association (ILCA). This award acknowledges organisations that demonstrate excellence in professional lactation support and a strong commitment to breastfeeding families.
What Is the IBCLC Care Award?
The IBCLC Care Award honours healthcare facilities that employ International Board-Certified Lactation Consultants (IBCLCs) and demonstrate excellence in promoting, protecting, and supporting breastfeeding. The Mother Hub has been recognised for integrating IBCLC expertise into our maternal-child health care team and for conducting activities that advance breastfeeding support in our community.
Why This Award Matters for Families
For families attending The Mother Hub, this recognition means they are receiving care from internationally certified lactation professionals who meet global standards for breastfeeding support. It reinforces our commitment to providing compassionate, evidence-based care for mothers and babies.
Our Commitment to Breastfeeding Support
Our team – including IBCLC-qualified clinicians such as Lisa Farrall – provides comprehensive lactation consultations, feeding support, and guidance for new parents. This award reflects the dedication of our staff and our ongoing mission to empower families through education and care.
Supporting Families Across Canberra
As part of this recognition, The Mother Hub will be listed in the IBCLC Care Directory for two years, helping families find trusted breastfeeding support in the ACT region. We’re honoured to stand among global leaders in maternal-child health.
