Che Ruddell

2020 was the Year of the Nurse & Midwife. During the global pandemic of 2020, the tireless efforts of our frontline staff and care workers became paramount. Che is one of nine nurses nominated by our partner, the Queensland Nurses & Midwives Union (QNMU), who have gone above and beyond.

Che Ruddell is a Registered Nurse working in paediatrics at Mackay Base Hospital. Che’s younger brother was born with a genetic disease in 1990. Todd lived a short life to the age of four, which saw him in and out of hospital during his short life. It was this experience that first fostered a love of nursing and caring for children.

As a Registered Nurse, Che naturally gravitated towards paediatric nursing and is a mother now of three beautiful children. Che has a passion to help little ones to sleep and feed happily using a holistic approach. To support her passion, she has qualified as a Certified Sleep Consultant and Certified Lactation Consultant and is based in Mackay, Queensland, Australia.

Her philosophy is simple: with life balance comes sleep balance and with sleep balance comes life balance. As a Certified Sleep Consultant and Certified Lactation Consultant, Che is able to help families achieve their sleep or lactation goals with both skill and confidence.
Che understands that a mother’s need to sleep or breastfeed their child or children can be an overwhelming time. Che provides many ways to support the mother, child and family through whatever sleep or lactation support required.
