Welcome to First Hands On

Welcome, My name is Maddy and I am the face of First Hands on.
I am an Emergency Nurse, Paramedic and Mumma of two based on the South Coast NSW.
I initially created First Hands on to empower, educate and support new mums and caregivers of our most precious little ones in those unexpected and crucial moments in life.

My goal is to help you care with confidence; by taking you from anxious, helpless and unprepared to EMPOWERED, CONFIDENT and RESOURCEFUL when being the first hands on in an emergency.

Throughout my career I have encountered countless patients and scenes where the smallest amount of first aid skills and knowledge could have made the biggest difference in the outcome of the injured or unwell person. Unfortunately injury and emergencies can happen to anyone although those first 10 minutes are golden in changing the narrative in what happens next. I want to fill your tool kit with knowledge and skills you can utilise in the home, work or public environment until professional help arrives.

In 2026 we will be expanding into First Aid and CPR training courses for both Public and Private group’s, please send an inquiry if interested.

Together, we can ensure that every body receives the care they deserve. Join us in this important mission.
