Testimonials
"I have had Leigh do my in house training since 2008 and it has been fantastic. I do my plan at the beginning of the year and I know I don’t have to worry about it from then on. Leigh delivers a high standard of training and there just doesn’t seem to be anything that she cannot tackle. Her style is relaxed and friendly and she has a unique delivery style that engages the caregivers. It is interspersed with practical tips and stories that all my staff can relate to. The standard of care has increased and I know the caregivers just love to come to her sessions. It has been a godsend as she speaks the same language as me which reinforces the standard of care I want to provide to my residents. In my book, it is money well spent.” - Glenda Kingsbeer, Owner Claire House

"Leigh's inservice training updates are fantastic. Not only does she present them in an interesting and personable manner, the worksheets she has developed really enhance learning. She makes her presentations interesting by giving people time to digest the information and intersperses it with very practical stories so that everyone can relate to the situation. It is especially good for those with English as a second language. I consider this training a very worthwhile investment as my return is in fantastic care." - Sheryl Samual, Logan Samuel Ltd.


"Leigh Kelly's training sessions are popular with our staff and have high attendance. Leigh displays first hand knowledge of their work environment and teaches sound principles & guidelines to enhance their knowledge and skills."
- Facility Manager, Maureen Plowman Rest Home
