Young female nursing student ECU Nursing & Midwifery student Brodie Hibberd kitted up for training.

Brodie's loving student life at Joondalup Campus where she starts the day with a must-have morning smoothie.

Every day is a busy one too, but she manages to juggle full-time study with being a disability support worker and having a life away from both.

Brodie's first birth experience happened on a 2-week prac placement at Fiona Stanley Hospital. It was a wow moment for her - and that was in her first semester of study!

Meet Brodie in this short video.
