Who this course is for

Schools, nurseries, childcarers and other organisations whose staff look after babies and young children and want focused, practical emergency paediatric first aid confidence. Whether it's the right fit for your setting is something we'll discuss with you on enquiry — we can help you decide between this and our wider Paediatric first aid course.

Practical focus

Hands-on practice with paediatric manikins and realistic emergency scenarios involving infants and young children. Learners rehearse the immediate steps to take in a childcare emergency, building confidence to act through doing, not just theory.

Delivery approach

Delivered at your premises, UK-wide, as a group session sized to your staff. We come to your school or nursery so your people learn in the environment they'll actually respond in.

Pricing

£900 per onsite group course — for up to 12 learners. That's £75 per learner for a full group.

No VAT is added to these prices.
