Mum of six, Kate Ball initially started Mini First Aid in 2014 from her kitchen table in Leeds, offering high quality baby & child first aid classes to parents and carers. Demand grew and Kate saw the potential for growth, so she started franchising the business in 2015. In 2021, BBC Dragon’s Den star Sara Davies, also saw the huge potential in Mini First Aid and she came on board as an investor and adviser. Mini First Aid is now a multi-award-winning organisation and has almost 70 franchises nationwide.
Hi! My name is Kellie and I am the incredibly proud owner of Mini First Aid Wolverhampton, South Staffordshire & Lichfield. I qualified as a paediatric nurse in 2013 and since I qualified I have been lucky enough to work in a number of different areas of nursing - but most recently found myself working in A&E. In lockdown I became a mommy myself - to a little girl called Brianna - and was able to see things from a different perspective. A parent's perspective. In November 2021 I decided that I wanted to share my skills and knowledge with other parents/ grandparents/ carers and anyone else who wanted to learn life saving skills. Not just this, but I wanted to be able to deliver these in a relaxed and comfortable style, make them available to those with newborns (I know what it's like to not want to leave your new baby!) My aim is to share with you the skills and knowledge to give you the confidence to know what actions to take if ever faced with a medical emergency. I can't wait to meet you (and your babies!)

Wolverhampton based Kate, Mum to Joseph and Roman, has been Senior Cabin Crew for an international airline for 12 years and has dealt with many first aid situations whilst travelling the world. Since becoming a parent, she has realised how lucky she is to have first aid skills. Being a member of the Mini First Aid team has given her the opportunity to pass on this knowledge to other parents, grandparents and carers of children.
