Baby and Child First Aid Course
for Parents, Grandparents and Carers
Classes cover what do if a baby or child is choking, not breathing or unconscious, first responder actions for common accidents and injuries, recognising high risk signs of illness and assessing the injured or ill child.
The courses are specifically designed to teach parents, grandparents and carers basic life saving and first aid techniques. These are approximately 3 hour sessions that can be run for a number of participants. Courses run as either adults only or as ‘Bring Your Baby” sessions. Courses are available at set venues across Sussex and London or can be arranged in your own home in the South East and London.
Do I need to learn first aid? One parents story:
“Two months after I attended the baby first aid class, my 7 month old daughter choked on a piece of bread. It was awful - one minute she was fine and the next she was hunched over in her high chair, purple in the face and gasping for air. Although I was terrified, because I had been on the course I felt confident in what I was doing and was able to help her.
If I hadn't had the training I'm not sure I would have been able to stop feelings of panic from taking over or whether I would have been able to dislodge the food quickly, or at all. It may well be that the first aid training saved my daughter's life.” Kate and baby Isla, Brighton
