I was very uneasy about attempting my First Responder certification, but Sky made the entire course very enjoyable and I felt like I came out of it far more comfortable than I could have ever imagined. Almost the entirety was practical, skill building work, which made it easy to learn and grow from your mistakes. I will be doing my EMR program with her as well.
Just completed my First Responders course with Sky. Sky is a fantastic instructor, knowledgeable, communicates the information well and is super fun in the process. I would use Sky enterprises again for future courses.
Sky was absolutely amazing! I had come in from Vancouver island for a First Responder Recertification as nobody else was running small groups, and it was well worth it. The instruction was clear, hands-on, and entertaining. Questions were always answered thoroughly, and her feedback was incredibly helpful. Highly recommend!

I recently attended Sky's Advanced Marine First Aid class. She not only packed a huge amount of information into our 4 day course, but made it fun and entertaining as well. Her world-wide mountaineering first aid experience is a valuable asset when it comes to teaching this course. Her life experience, personality, and people skills are a perfect fit for teaching this course. Her willingness to adjust course dates to accommodate clients was duely noted. If you're looking for this course, or any other courses offered by Sky, I highly recommend attending. 👌
