Here's what some of our clients have to say about our service:
“Burnaby Association For Community Inclusion (BACI) operates six childcare programs and we employ over 40 staff. For the past 3 years our organization has employed Safe & Sound First Aid Training Ltd to provide Red Cross first aid training for our early childhood educators. Gill McCulloch and her staff are extremely knowledgeable and make the learning process fun and exciting through the use of props, hands on materials and their humour. The staff walk away with invaluable knowledge that they learned in a relaxed and fun environment.
The Red Cross first aid programs Gill offers are convenient and economical for our large group. We are truly grateful for Gill's expertise and experience. We are confident that the children in our care will be safe because of the skills taught to the staff through Safe and Sound First Aid Training Ltd.
Thank you Gill!”

“I represent child care providers who have taken the Child Safe first aid course with Gill. The feed back that I received was excellent. Some of the comments were "she presented well," "all the topics were covered", "the information was clearly given," "I would take this course with Gill again." It has been a pleasure working with Gill to present these first aid courses.”

“Three years ago I hosted my first Safe and Sound First Aid Training course in my home after the birth of our first child. I had quite a few friends who had all had their first children around the same time and we all really felt that it was a good idea for us to have some formal first aid training. With a new baby around there are plenty of other things to worry about and I wanted the peace of mind that I would be able to react quickly in an emergency situation.
We were all so pleased with our instructor Gill McCulloch. She made us all feel so relaxed, and being a Mom herself she was able to give us fantastic advice that we knew was practical and realistic. We all finished the course that day feeling like we possessed the knowledge needed to make our homes safe for our little ones.
The very next day after our first aid course my family was at dinner at a friend's house when my son started to choke on a piece of ham. Everyone at the table was very surprised at how calm I stayed and how efficiently I was able to get the situation under control. I know that had he choked two days prior I would have done the wrong thing and most definitely panicked. Thankfully he was OK, and the rest of the dinner went off without a hitch.
I had my second child 2 years ago and it was very helpful to have my first aid books still around to re-baby-proof our house again.
So here I am, ready to renew my first aid certificate. Not only for my own personal use, but because I also take care of several of my friend's children. I have had no problem at all in having friends sign up to take the course again. We all loved learning from Gill and being able to take the course in the relaxed environment of my home. I would highly recommend the ChildSafe First Aid Training Course to all parents and care-givers.”

Dear Gill,
Thank you so much for making the Red Cross Emergency First Aid course not only informative but also very interesting. Your enthusiasm really left an impression. I have since made up my own first aid kit and feel much more skilled if called upon. Very glad to have attended your group in May and would recommend it.
Sincerely,
Pat. H,
Dear Gill,
I am writing to thank you very much for coming to our house to share your first aid expertise with us. Richard and I and our friends and family learned a great deal in our Infant-Child CPR class and I am sure I speak for all of us when I say that we now feel confident to handle any first aid emergencies that (God forbid!) may arise with our babies. Your relaxed and confident presentation of the lifesaving techniques enabled us to catch on quickly and to easily commit them to memory. Also, we appreciated the many tips on childproofing our house and we have completed our safety checklist! Once again, we give your our most sincere thanks.
Deborah and Richard Armstrong,
Armstrong Nutrition
