The mother-of-two was taken to hospital, where she later died from her injuries.
Her partner Jorden Turney was arrested at the scene and has been charged with one count of murder.
Turney appeared before Melbourne Magistrates Court on Monday and was remanded in custody.
Timmins has been remembered as a “caring and loving” person who loved her two children dearly.
“She was a devoted mother whose children were her whole world, a much-loved daughter and sister, and an incredible auntie who adored her family deeply,” her family said in a statement.

“Brooke had a huge passion for basketball and especially loved coaching. She gave so much of her time and heart to the sport and to the people she coached, encouraging and supporting those around her.
“She was kind, caring and deeply loved by so many people.
“Brooke had her whole life ahead of her and deserved the chance to watch her children grow and experience all the beautiful moments still to come.”
Her family said they hoped she would not be remembered for her death, but for the “mother, daughter, sister, auntie, friend and beautiful person she was”.
Residents told 9News they are “still in shock” over the incident.

“It’s awful, I am going to be checking in on my neighbours [and] really stick together now,” one said.
9News understands children were inside the home at the time of the incident.
It is believed the pair moved into the home on Generation Drive just over 12 months ago.
Detectives from the Homicide Squad were seen returning to the scene on Monday.
