Following the birth of her first child in the summer of 2015, she was certified as a First Aid Instructor with the Lifesaving Society BC/ Yukon Branch. Shortly thereafter, Holly and her sister became co-owners of Safe Beginnings First Aid. Their company educates over 250 caregivers each month with essential lifesaving skills for small children.
