Nationally Recognised Paediatric First Aid Courses and Qualifications

The Paediatric First Aid Course will give you or your staff a thorough grounding in Paediatric First Aid knowledge so they know what to do in a Paediatric emergency.  This qualification is required by anyone working with children or infants and is fully compliant with the HSE and EYFS. If you work in a nursery, primary school, as a nanny or a carer for children, this is the qualification you need.

No Paediatric First Aid Skills

Not having first aid skills to look after children or babies can limit your ability to provide immediate assistance in emergency situations, potentially putting yourself and others at risk. It can hinder your confidence, personal safety, and ability to make a positive difference in critical moments that require life-saving interventions.

Out Of Date Qualifications

Outdated first aid qualifications can compromise your ability to respond effectively to emergencies, causing delays risking the well-being of individuals in your workplace. It can also create liability concerns for employers as they are responsible for the safety of their workforce and visitors.
