Founded with a passion for safety and community preparedness, our team brings years of experience in emergency response and life-saving education.

Safety begins at home

Our love for our family is what drives our passion for safety. As parents, we take safety seriously and remain diligent in preparing for emergencies, because we want our children to grow up feeling secure and protected. This commitment has inspired us to help other families do the same by providing the tools and training needed to confidently handle critical situations. For us, safety is more than preparedness—it’s about creating peace of mind and a safe environment where kids can thrive.

Kelly Hansen

Kelly is a mother of 4 strapping young men, and she also owns Hansen CPR. Kelly works for a marketing firm and enjoys playing sports with her boys, non profit activism and going on dates with her hubby! Kelly decided to become an instructor when she realized that most parents have no idea how to react if their baby is choking or has a febrile seizure. She wanted to make a change in her community and make sure that everyone she knows is confident in their ability to save a life if that day ever comes. She is passionate about teaching CPR to each student and making sure they leave feeling confident and knowledgeable in their life saving skills.
