Maternal health and child coordinator Rebecca Chaston has been working with Greater Shepparton City Council since 2017.

With 28 years of experience as a nurse, she describes her journey and current role as fulfilling and rewarding.

“After 18 years in nursing, I decided to study and become a midwife, which eventually led me to areas at GV Health as a maternal health nurse. This path ultimately brought me to my current role as a coordinator here at the council,” Rebecca said.

“I enjoy driving innovative early childhood practices and working with great teams of employees. I also find fulfilment in working in the community and visiting people in their own homes.

“Although I do work with vulnerable families dealing with challenging situations such as family violence and child protection, it is truly rewarding to get to know these families and assist them in navigating through difficult times in their lives.

“It's a unique role that can genuinely change lives.”
