Who are we?
Our Vision
At Elemental First Aid, our mission is to equip individuals with lifesaving skills through comprehensive CPR and First Aid training. We are dedicated to ensuring that everyone in our community feels confident and prepared to handle emergencies.
Our Founder
André, a proud native of Carleton Place, Ontario, has been deeply immersed in the realm of aquatics and lifesaving education since his formative years. His journey began as a lifeguard and swim instructor, culminating in the creation of Elemental First Aid during his senior years at Carleton Place High School in 2012.
Driven by a genuine passion for imparting life-saving skills and swimming proficiency to individuals of all ages, André established Elemental First Aid with a clear mission in mind. Since then, he has dedicated over a decade to teaching First Aid and CPR courses to local businesses and the wider community, nurturing a culture of safety and preparedness.
Residing in Carleton Place with his wife, Mikayla, and their four children, André's commitment to his hometown remains unwavering. In 2020, he expanded his impact by acquiring NCAC Swim, a swim club in the Ottawa Area, where he continues to foster a love for swimming among enthusiasts of all levels.
Through Elemental First Aid and NCAC Swim, André exemplifies his belief in the importance of community involvement and accessible education. His goal is simple yet profound: to equip individuals with the indispensable skills of swimming and emergency response, ensuring safety and confidence for all.
