The youngest member of the Hartley family, she was one of the subjects of her mother's family blog The Hartley Hooligans. The blog has documented the Hartley's lives as they managed her and her sister's microcephaly.
Her mother, Gwen, began The Hartley Hooligans in 2011.
Both she and her older sister, Claire, had microcephaly caused by an Asparagine Synthetase Deficiency. The condition was genetic, inherited recessively through both her mother and father.
Her mother, Gwen, is a blogger, while her father, Scott, is a glass blower. She had two older siblings, a brother named Cal and a sister named Claire.
Her mother has featured a Garrison Keillor quote on her family blog.
