Heslop was born in Auckland, New Zealand and moved to the Gold Coast at 10 years of age.[1] She attended Helensvale State High School throughout her upbringing and her first sporting interest was netball where she was a junior state representative for Queensland.[2] She later tried Australian rules football for the Southport Sharks and was identified as a standout by the Gold Coast Suns where she was placed in their developmental academy and subsequently quit netball to pursue a career in the AFLW. She was selected for numerous junior football state representative teams and joined the top level Yeronga Devils in the lead up to her draft year.[3]
