Family First – Professional, practical, and empowering

Reinette was incredibly professional and kind throughout the entire process. She made everything seamless.

The trainer was fantastic — knowledgeable, patient, fun and engaging. As a new dad, I felt more confident after the session, and so did my family and friends, including my parents in their 70s who were fully comfortable participating in the practicals.

The session was clear, hands-on, and empowering. Great value for money and highly recommended for anyone wanting to feel prepared to respond if something ever happens.

This kind of training brings peace of mind you didn’t realise you needed — until you have it.

Ivan was a pleasure to work with. The on-boarding and course was very professional. My children were not looking forward to the day but ended up really enjoying it (thank you Ivan!) and requesting more instruction. Very impressed with Family First Aid.
