Sophie Graves

I am a Registered Paediatric Nurse with a BSc (Hons) in Children and Young People’s Nursing and over 11 years’ experience working in paediatric critical care. I currently work within a specialist paediatric critical care transport service, providing care to critically ill children requiring specialist transfer, and work closely with the National Children’s Air Ambulance.

Alongside my clinical role, I am passionate about education and supporting healthcare professionals to develop the knowledge, skills and confidence needed to care for seriously ill children. I deliver paediatric healthcare education across the region and am an instructor in Advanced Paediatric Life Support (APLS), Paediatric Immediate Life Support (PILS), Paediatric First Aid and Baby First Aid.

My clinical background has given me a broad range of experience in paediatric emergency and critical care, and I enjoy bringing real-life clinical experience into my teaching. I am particularly passionate about supporting healthcare professionals and the wider public to feel confident in recognising and managing the deteriorating child.

I am NMC registered and committed to delivering engaging, practical and evidence-based education.
