In my family we fervently believe in check yourself before you wreck yourself or wreck someone else. So, for birthdays, Christmas, anniversaries, graduations, marriages, births, thank yous, we have a tradition in my family of buying some sort of education as a gift for the recipient. Since 2000, I, my family, cousins, and friends have satisfactorily attended several classes here. Some were for the first time, Others were refresher courses. We recommend these classes at this business: CPR & First Aid CPR & AED Healthcare Provider BLS Course Childcare Classes Babysitting Classes for Teens Workplace Safety. Lord knows I've been in far too many businesses who prove they desperately need to have owners and employees attend this class. Forklift Training Online CPR OSHA 10 & 30. Lord knows I've seen far too many contractors who prove they desperately need to attend this class. Private Classes I'm hoping this business adds a Safe Driving Class. Lord knows I see far too many drivers who prove they desperately need to attend this class. Owner of this business, Kristan, likes her Freedom so she has a publicly disclosed daily Military and Veterans Discount for those who Serve or have Served as a token thanks to our GIs and we Veterans. That's important because it provides Veterans (rare 7% of the population) and GIs (rare one-half of one percent of the population) opportunity to participate in American Dream Veterans and GIs' sacrifices have made possible for 100% of the population. It means a lot to those unable to be employed due to military Service-connected disability as on limited fixed income. I rate 'em 4 stars. According to Yelp ratings' definitions, 3 Stars is "Ok". That to me is an acceptable rating of business that does day in and day out what they're in business to do. It is not a negative review. They earned 4th star for Military Veterans Discount.

Good intentions only go so far. To truly help others, you have to take action in some way. Similarly, you have to be active in your faith in order for it to be truly meaningful. Saw ARC brochure at a Veterans hospital offered free smoke alarms in homes. A volunteer came to my home who checked and updated all batteries of my existing smoke detectors, checked electrical connections for the hard-wired smoke alarms while reminding me to, "Test your smoke alarms monthly." No one else does what ARC does: not any government, not other charities. From small house fires to multi-state natural disasters, ARC goes wherever humanitarian need is to provide answer to that need. 95% are volunteers. Each year ARC responds to some 64,000 disasters. The vast majority are home fires. ARC goal's to reduce fire-related deaths and injuries in the US because on average: 7 people die every day in America from home fire, most impacting children and the elderly. My maternal grandmother was one of them. 36 people suffer injuries as a result of an American home fire every day. Over $7 billion in American property damage occurs every year from home fires. ARC began providing services to US military during Spanish-American War in 1898. More than 400 ARC volunteers, including 296 women nurses, lost their lives in World War I. They were on the front lines of battle. They served in field and evacuation hospitals, on hospital trains, ships and planes. ARC involvement in World War II preceded entrance of US into war. In 1939, ARC became chief provider of relief supplies for civilian victims.. After 7 December 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor ARC quickly mobilized a volunteer and staff force of what was to be more than 104,000 nurses to fulfill the mandates of its 1905 congressional charter requiring that the organization "furnish volunteer aid to the sick and wounded of armies in time of war" and to "act in matters of voluntary relief and in accord with the military and naval authorities as a medium of communication between the people of the United States of America and their Army and Navy." Donut Dollies was popular term used for ARC women who volunteered to work overseas in mobile service clubs called clubmobiles. They provided food, entertainment and a bit of a connection to home to GIs stationed overseas. On the home-front millions of ARC volunteers provided aid and comfort to GIs and their families, service in hospitals experiencing severe staffing shortages, provided first aid and water safety training, conducted scrap drives, organized Victory Gardens, initiated educational programs, in-home nutrition, and produced emergency supplies for victims of war. ARC also recruited thousands of nurses to Serve in Army and Navy Nurses Corps. ARC served American prisoners of war as a conduit for communication between prisoners and their families, providing essential care packages to prisoners though many captors thwarted these efforts. ARC war time activity reached its peak in 1945; 7.5 million volunteers and 39,000 paid staff were supporting war effort. By the time of the end of the war, the American public had contributed over $784 million in support of Red Cross activities. During World War II, 86 ARC workers, 52 women and 34 men, lost their lives. ARC volunteers were with GIs during US military actions following WWII: Korea 1950-1953 where two American Red Cross members lost their lives and many others were injured. Cuba 1961 Viet Nam 1961-1973 where 480 ARC field directors, hospital personnel and recreation workers served in Southeast Asia. ARC workers brought recreation to an average of 280,500 GIs each month. Five ARC members lost their lives and many others were injured. Dominican Republic 1965, Lebanon 1982, Grenada 1982, Panama 1982 Gulf War (Kuwait and Iraq) 1991 where ARC volunteers carried 215,000 emergency messages to and from GIs. They aided more than 4,700 GIs and their families with $1.72 million in emergency financial aid and other services. Seven ARC workers received the Bronze Star for meritorious service. Somalia 1983, Haiti 1994, Bosnia 1994-1995, Kosovo 1999, Afghanistan 2001-2021, Iraq War 2003-2010, Libya 2011, War with ISIL 2012-2019, Syria 2017-present For 100+ years ARC volunteers have worked at Department of Veterans Affairs "VA" hospitals in medical, recreational and welfare programs; and for decades at VA offices providing assistance to Veterans filing applications for Service and disability compensation.

This was our second child (our first we didn't use a doula, but wish I had now!) and, as much as I love him, my husband just wasn't enough alone for me the first go around. I knew I needed some added support. That's where Jamie and Stevie came in and filled that much needed gap. My birth experience was extremely positive, full of love and support, smooth and without any regrets or feelings of inadequacy. I know I couldn't have done it without their preparation and commitment. Gosh, the number of times I pinged them in the middle of the night, even well before my delivery... I was always so apologetic about that, but they assured me it was no big deal and that they were there for me any time I needed them. Please, hire them. You won't regret it, I promise!

In addition to Doula services, we decided to take the Evidence Based Birthing 6 week course taught by Stevie, the CPR class and the breastfeeding class taught by Jamie. The EBB course was extremely informative and helped us prepare for the type of delivery we wanted. I felt confident in my decisions around the type of birth I wanted but also prepared for any unplanned changes that may occur. The CPR class was something my husband and I planned to take through the hospital but enjoyed having Stevie come over to our house and receive 1:1 instruction. The breastfeeding class was extremely informative and useful for not only myself but my husband as well. Due to covid restrictions only one doula was allowed in our hospital room so Stevie joined us since Jamie had just given birth to her 4th baby a week prior. Stevie knew our nurses, anesthesiologist, and OB which was comforting. My birth plan changed from what I originally intended and Stevie made sure I was comfortable with the change and helped me feel confident with my decision. My baby's heart rate dropped extremely low a couple times during labor and she helped us stay strong and reassure us that we were in good hands. I couldn't have asked for a better team for our delivery and I think that Stevie is largely to thank for that. 3 days after my baby was born, I became concerned because he hadn't had a wet or poopy diaper in 2 days. I got an appointment with our pediatrician a day earlier than originally scheduled but still had a day to care for my child. I reached out to Jamie and Stevie for advice and Jamie got me connected to a Lactation Consultant and helped me make the decision on a feeding plan until our appointments. She even brought over a bag of breastmilk since my milk hadn't come in yet . I found out that my baby wasn't able to get enough milk from my breast due to some latching issues and worked with the lactation consultant Jamie recommended for the first 2 months of his life. I am now almost 6 months postpartum and now have a great breastfeeding relationship with my child - something I again largely attribute to Jamie. As first time parents, getting a doula was the best decision we made and we couldn't be happier with the services provided by Jamie and Stevie!
