Why choose us?

Instructor coaching a student through bandaging during a first aid class
A Saturday first aid class in New Rochelle. Eight people, one room, everyone's hands on something.

Most people who walk into our classes have technically been certified before, and most of them tell us the same thing: they sat in a big room, watched a video, took a turn on a manikin for about ninety seconds, and got a card. That isn't training. It's attendance.

We cap open classes at eight students. That number isn't marketing — it's the largest group where an instructor can watch every set of compressions and say "you're not going deep enough" to the person who needs to hear it. Small classes also mean weekend dates fill fast, and we'd rather tell you that honestly than overbook a room.

We're a licensed American Red Cross Training Provider, so the certification you get is the nationally recognized two-year card, not an in-house certificate. And we price it plainly: every course cost is on this site. If you're a camp, a school, or a small business, we load the manikins and AED trainers into a car and come to you.

The reason any of this exists is simple. Westchester has plenty of AEDs on walls and not nearly enough people who feel ready to use one. We'd like to change the second half of that.

What does it cost, and how long does it take?

Five courses, all prices listed. Group rate kicks in at six people, and we'll travel anywhere in the county.

This is the class most people need and the one we teach the most. You'll finish about an hour and a half of online coursework on your own, then spend two hours and fifteen minutes in person on the floor with a manikin. We stop when someone's compressions are shallow and we fix it right there.

Red Cross certified instructor · CPR/AED for Professional Rescuers · Lifeguard

I started teaching because I kept meeting camp counselors and parents who'd technically been certified but had never actually pushed hard enough on a manikin to know what it feels like. I run classes small on purpose. If you leave my room, I want you to have done every skill with your own hands, not watched someone else do it.

Certifying a camp, school, or staff?

This is most of what we do. We bring manikins, AED trainers, and everything else to your rec hall, gym, break room, or classroom, and run groups of eight back to back until your whole staff is certified. One afternoon usually covers twenty people.

Group pricing starts at six participants — roughly $55–$110 per person depending on the course. Tell us how many people and which bucket they fall into (waterfront, general staff, medication administration) and we'll send a flat quote within a day.

Questions people ask before signing up

Pricing & booking

How much does a class cost?

Individual classes run $70–$135 depending on the course, and group rates start at 6 people. Prices are listed on every course below — there's no quote form standing between you and a number.

How do I sign up?

Use the booking form and tell us the course and rough dates that work. We reply within 24 hours, usually the same evening. Classes are small, so weekend dates fill first.

Do you come to us?

Yes. Most of our work is on-site at camps, schools, offices, and community centers around Westchester. We bring manikins, AED trainers, and everything else. You bring a room with floor space.

Certification

How long is my certification good for?

Red Cross CPR/AED and First Aid cards are valid for two years. One important exception: in New York State, lifeguards must renew CPR/AED for the Professional Rescuer every year.

When do I get my card?

Your digital Red Cross certificate is issued the same day you finish. You can print it or keep it on your phone — employers can verify it directly with the Red Cross.

Is this the real Red Cross certification?

Yes. We're a licensed American Red Cross Training Provider, so the card you get is the nationally recognized one, not an in-house certificate.

The class itself

I've never done CPR before. Will I be behind?

Most people in the room haven't. We start from zero and you'll practice every skill yourself before the class ends. There's no test you can fail by being new.

What should I wear?

Something you can kneel in. You'll be on the floor with a manikin for a good chunk of the class.

How many people are in a class?

Eight or fewer for open classes. It's the whole reason people leave feeling like they could actually do it — and the reason dates fill up fast.
