2 Day Paediatric First Aid Training

You should choose this course to help you to qualify for registration as an early years carer, or to enhance your skills as a parent or grandparent who looks after young children.

This course will give you the knowledge and skills you need to deal confidently with a range of accidents, illnesses and emergency situations involving young children and babies.

Introduction

Taking care of ill and injured children involves a special set of skills and techniques above and beyond those of the basic first aider. In just two days, the Pediatric First Aid course will teach you all you need to know about recognising and treating childhood illnesses, as well as dealing with accidents and injuries, until suitably qualified help can be sought.

The course  forms an essential part of your qualification as an early years care provider.
