Things to know

Common questions about this course.

Do I need any previous first aid experience?

No previous experience is required. The course is designed for complete beginners and is delivered in an informal, supportive environment. Everything is taught from scratch.

Is this course a formal qualification?

This is not a formal workplace qualification. It is essential training for personal use, designed for parents, grandparents, and carers. If you need a formal paediatric first aid qualification for work (nursery, childminding, school), please see our Paediatric First Aid (2 Day) or Emergency Paediatric First Aid courses.

How long does the course last?

The course is 3 hours long. It is designed to fit into a busy parent's schedule while covering the essential skills that matter most.

Can I bring my baby to the course?

Can you deliver this course for a group?

Yes, we can arrange dedicated sessions for parent groups, NCT groups, community organisations, or children's centres. Contact us on 07958 915146 to arrange a group session.
