“My daughter has been attending Ms. Emily’s Music and Movement Class since she was 4 months old. Now, at almost 9 months old, she is able to choose her own instrument, laugh and dance to the music, and is even becoming familiar with the order of events in the class. I’m amazed! The older children always love to “help” the younger ones, and Ms. Emily is great about keeping the class moving along with lots of fun. We always look forward to our Wednesday mornings!”

Hello, wonderful moms of our community!
I am delighted to introduce myself as a retired ER Nurse with a passion for ensuring the safety and well-being of families. In my years of experience, I’ve witnessed firsthand the importance of CPR, AED, and First Aid training, especially when it comes to our little ones. That’s why I’m passionate about offering Infant, Child, and Adult CPR classes, with a special focus on addressing choking emergencies.
How many times have we heard, “I didn’t know how”? It’s a phrase that echoes in emergency rooms across the country, and I am determined to change that narrative. Every family deserves to feel confident and prepared in the face of an emergency.
Convenience is key for busy moms, which is why I bring the training directly to your group. Whether it’s a Mommy and Me gathering, a playgroup, or any other community event, I’ll be there to equip you with life-saving skills in a comfortable and familiar setting.
Here’s a glimpse of what my classes offer:
Hands-on CPR practice for infants, children, and adults
Techniques for dealing with choking emergencies
First Aid basics for common household injuries
Let’s come together to create a safer environment for our loved ones. Get in touch to schedule a session that fits your group’s needs. Your peace of mind is just a class away.
Sincerely,
Karen Ketchie, RN
