Your Survival Squad for Student Life
Supporting student nurses and healthcare heroes to feel seen, supported, and hyped — because showing up with heart is what matters most.
Support, Study Hacks, & Pep Talks from Your Healthcare Hype Girl!
Being a student nurse is tough — juggling clinical placements, endless assignments, and the emotional weight of it all. The Scrub Hub was built to make it easier. Created by Shantelle—Nurse, mentor, and your very own Healthcare Hype Girl.
Why? Because she gets it. She has lived it. She has cried in the car, doubted herself, done the late shifts, the early shifts, and the “how the hell do I survive this” week shifts. Juggling the emotional cost? That’s the one no one warns you about.
Within The Scrub Hub, you'll find pep talks, planning tools, shift hacks, and hype you didn’t know you needed - all designed to meet you exactly where you are at!
You're Healthcare Hype Girl is here to help you:
Beat the overwhelm
Build confidence on shift
Keep your energy (and your spark!)
Actually enjoy this wild ride

About The Scrub Hub ❤️
The Scrub Hub was born from the real, raw moments of student nursing. The 3am tears, the imposter syndrome, the “I can’t do this” days.
Created by me, Shantelle — your Healthcare Hype Girl — The Scrub Hub is what I needed back when I returned to study after another midnight session of tears, drowning in questions that I had no one to ask.
I’m a Nurse, a mentor, a mum, and (some say) a walking pep talk. I’ve been exactly where you are — juggling clinical placements, assignments, and the emotional load that no one prepares you for.
So I built this space. A place where you’re not just another student. You’re a human, growing, learning and supported in real time.
