Trudie Jones was born in the UK and moved to the USA in 1992, finally settling in Fort Lauderdale in 2004. It was here that she ran across an article in a Parenting magazine on birth statistics which shocked her and changed the direction of her life indefinitely to what she believes was her “true passion” … caring for babies before and after birth. Trudie has been a Birth Doula for 12+ years and has had the honor and privilege of being part of the welcoming committee for hundreds of babies as they enter this new World.

Trudie’s current certifications include Birth Doula, Post Partum Doula, Hypnobirthing Practitioner, Infant Massage Instructor and H.U.G. Teacher. She is the creator of “Welcome Home Baby” an instructional class intended to guide couples as they navigate their way through those early days of parenthood, she is the creator and producer of an instructional DVD titled “Trifecta of Infant Massage” a step by step guide on Infant Massage.

Denise Dawkins

Denise Dawkins

Instructor of Adult, Child, & Infant CPR+AED

Improving the lives of patients is at the core of why Denise became a registered nurse. After 18 years of nursing experience in areas such as the medical-surgical unit, telemetry unit, intensive care unit, and preoperative care unit, Denise shifted her focus to improving the lives of individuals outside the hospital walls. This shift came after listening to her sister express grief concerning the loss of a beloved customer. The store bystanders were unable to perform CPR and this gentleman succumb to sudden cardiac arrest. Seeing CPR with a different pair of eyes, Denise became a certified CPR educator. As the owner of a CPR and Safety training company she will stop at nothing to train companies, organization, and individuals with the skills necessary to preserve life and prevent the worsening of emergency medical conditions.

Denise’s experience as a nurse has influenced her training. She is committed to delivering instructional and theoretical training preparing individuals to become effective CPR & First Aid providers.
