We’re here to make sure you have the knowledge you need, when it matters most.

At Odonata, we’re here to give you the tools and confidence to handle any first aid situation with trust—not just in the techniques, but in yourself. It’s not only about knowing how to act, but why those actions make a difference. When you understand the bigger picture, you’ll feel empowered to make the right decisions when it matters most.

Our approach is simple: we want to equip you with the knowledge and hands-on skills you need to tackle whatever first aid challenges come your way. Whether it’s learning how to stay calm in a crisis, resolving a choking incident, or performing CPR, you’ll feel prepared to act. First aid for us, is also about understanding the power of kindness, because how you care for someone at their most vulnerable, can make all the difference.

But we go beyond just teaching first aid. We’ll help you spot risks before they turn into emergencies and show you how to prevent those moments from happening in the first place. You’ll learn to recognize when someone needs help before it’s a crisis and how to prepare for the curveballs.

At Odonata, we’re building a community of everyday heroes—people just like you, who are ready to step up when it matters the most.

Come and be part of our powerful and positive movement!

Mel – Casa Dei

" Your course is on another level! The guides are all taking very excitedly about it. We have been on many courses over 15 years and we can safely say that was the best we have ever been on. You are an amazing teacher, thank you for the amount of effort and thought you put into the course. I have updated the CZ directors that we MUST use you for any further training – well done! "

Kyle Branch – Classic Zambia Safaris

"Dani, thank you for a great course over the weekend – it was amazing and the staff thoroughly enjoyed it!’

Headmaster – Martin House Trust School

" I had the privilege of attending first aid training led by Danielle at Odonata Zambia, and I can confidently say it was an outstanding experience. Danielle’s expertise, clear communication, and practical approach made the training engaging and effective. She covered essential topics thoroughly, ensuring we understood not only the how but also the why behind each technique. Her real-world examples and hands-on practice sessions were invaluable. Thanks to Danielle, I now feel more confident in handling emergency situations. I highly recommend her training to anyone seeking top-notch first aid skills."

Ntang’a – Mukambi Safari Lodge

" I strongly recommend First Aid Training with Dani from Odonata. Her training sessions are professional and thorough, and she imparts invaluable ‘pearls of wisdom’ throughout. Dani’s dedication to care is truly inspiring and her First Aid courses are tailored to the audience, ensuring they are both relevant and engaging.”

Clare Clarkson – Teacher

" I’m so glad I did the babies + infants first aid class with Dani and would highly recommend it. As a new mum it was a massive relief and psychological boost to have that knowledge under my belt and to know I was up to date with the latest best practices when it came to first aid. It made me more confident to deal with choking and when my son stood on a hot iron manhole cover as a one year old, our knowledge about what to do with burns really helped reduce the damage and keep it to a first degree burn. "

Mana / Mana Meadows

" I recently attended Dani Van Wyk's first aid course, and it was engaging and empowering. The training was thorough and well-structured, making it easy to grasp and remember essential first aid techniques. A few months after completing the course, my son Riley began choking on a piece of meat. Thanks to the skills I learned from Dani, I was able to remain calm and perform the necessary steps to dislodge the obstruction quickly. The knowledge I gained from the course was invaluable in that critical moment. Dani also went above and beyond when she gave us extra guidance tailored to our needs since my other son has asthma. We deeply appreciate the personalized attention and the comprehensive information she shared.I highly recommend Dani Van Wyk's first aid course! It is a game changer! The skills and confidence you gain could one day help you save a life.”
