Reviews

“We did an in person life-saving essentials course with our coffee group recently. Charlotte and Teresa were amazing teachers as they made things easy to understand and were both friendly and approachable. It was very engaging and interactive and we went away feeling more confident in handling emergency situations. Highly recommend doing this course.”

- Melissa R [Life-saving essentials]
“My husband and I completed the lifesaving essential course from the comfort of our home with two friends and our sons who are 10 months old. Charlotte was informative and so patient with our little one crawling around. The realtime feedback from the mannequins was a game changer as we can confidently say we know what pressure to apply if ever needing to perform. CPR We look forward to completing “navigating illness and injury. Thank you Charlotte ❤️.”

“If you are looking for a fun and interactive educational lifesaving session, then this is your team. Char was really helpful in providing a supportive CPR/choking risk session for my in-laws. They now feel confident to care for their grandchild safely.”

- emma P [life saving essentials]
“We had Charlotte demonstrate and explain to us the importance of First Aid for saving (infant to child age) should they encounter with choking, accidents etc., and the necessary steps to undertake when faced with emergency. She was fantastic! Her friendly approach and knowledge was impressive. I would highly recommend new parents to take up this course as you never know when you are faced with challenges to save ones life. The best part is the sessions are fun, interactive are not that long.”
