Hayley, from Sydney, joined Yumba Bimbi 5 weeks ago and is now completing her 16-week placement with us. She loves working in regional areas, enjoys the strong sense of community, and appreciates the work-life balance smaller communities offer. Hayley plans to pursue a career in a regional town, focusing on mental health.

When asked about her experience at Yumba Bimbi, Hayley emphasised the supportive, inclusive, and positive work environment. 

“Everyone is happy to help each other. I feel comfortable asking questions, and people are genuinely passionate about what they do. They care deeply for the participants and know them well. That’s beautiful.”
