Welcome back to No Place Like Homb. In this episode, Larissa and Jess are thrilled to welcome guest, Narelle Tunks, a mother and seasoned healthcare professional with an impressive background in paediatric nursing, midwifery, and fertility nursing.
Narelle started her career as a paediatric nurse at the Royal Children’s Hospital before returning study and completing a postgraduate degree in Midwifery.
Narelle's journey has offered the opportunity to work as a Midwifery Educator in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania, providing training to local Tanzanian midwives and nurses in rural communities. Recognising the need for more support in Tanzania, Narelle went on to establish a Not-for-Profit Organisation and through collaboration with the Australian NGO Global Development Group, Kangaroo Mother Care was born.
Narelle served as a Midwife and former Nurse Unit Manager at the Epworth Women's Hospital in East Melbourne and has worked in rural outback communities across Australia. Her extensive experience in different healthcare settings has equipped her with a unique perspective on maternal and child health.
