Don't Skip a Beat is by far the best CPR company out there! Having done over a dozen different CPR classes, I was so impressed by the quality of instruction and equipment, the information given, and the pace and overall atmosphere of the course.

I initially booked with Don't Skip a Beat because it was the only course I could find that offered an evening class (works best with my schedule). It was easy to book, and the girls were quick at responding to my inquiries and very friendly and helpful.

Laura is an excellent instructor! She was happy to answer all my questions, and she gave us lots of real world examples in her teaching. The mannequins and materials were in perfect condition. After each new skill discussed, Laura would recap the rate and depth of compressions and the compression: breath ratio, so by the end of my course I could have recalled that information in my sleep. We did a 5 minute mock cardiac arrest simulation as a team, and it was great practice. Walking away from this course I feel confident that if I were to come across someone in need of CPR I would know how to respond effectively.

Laura is so lovely and kind which made the whole evening feel like I was hanging out with a friend. I have only positive things to say about Don't Skip a Beat, and I highly recommend the course to everyone.

Laura was able to teach all the details of first aid in a way that is engaging and easy to understand.

I would highly recommend! I plan to do my refresher course with Don’t Skip a Beat!.”
