What Parents Have to Say

Amazing course - practical, real world first aid. We took the course to prepare ourselves before going travelling for 9 weeks overseas with our 6 month old, and it could not have been better.

Charlotte was an incredible teacher - her guidance based on what parents really need to know. Would highly recommend.
