Childcare Consultant, Wide Bay

The Wide Bay region takes in Hervey Bay, Bundaberg, Maryborough, the broader Fraser Coast and Gympie, a network of regional centres serving coastal and agricultural communities. This is Talisha Long's home region, giving her deep local ties and an insider understanding of its catchments, councils and operating realities. She supports operators across the full lifecycle, from feasibility and site selection through development approval, provider and service approvals, and operations.

One advisor, the entire lifecycle

Most consultants know a few areas. Talisha is the advisor that providers, developers, investors, government bodies and international operators engage for end-to-end feasibility, approvals and delivery across the whole journey, from raw land to a thriving, compliant operation. Almost no one in Australia can credibly claim that span: more than 30 years from the floor to the boardroom, having worked every level from Assistant Educator to Chief Operating Officer.
