Under the Government Early Years and Childcare Registration requirements, at least one person who has a current full paediatric first aid certificate must be on the premises and available at all times when children are present and must accompany children on outings. This full Paediatric First Aid training course covers all EYFS and Ofsted requirements.

It is vital for anyone working with children or infants to know what to do should an emergency arise. This Paediatric First Aid course could save the life of a child under your care, should they become unconscious, stop breathing or experience cardiac arrest. You are responsible for the life of any child under your care, make sure you know what to do until help arrives.

Our blended Paediatric First Aid course combines practical face-to-face training and at home interactive e-learning. Learners will understand the role and responsibilities of the paediatric first aider, how to provide first aid to a child who is choking, bleeding, burnt, having a seizure and more. The face-to-face training day will include practical training to provide learners with the skills, knowledge and confidence to act effectively when emergencies arise. The Department of Education recognises blended learning as an acceptable delivery method of first aid training in the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, so learners can gain the full Paediatric First Aid qualification with our course.

The aim of this Paediatric First Aid course is to greater increase your knowledge of paediatric first aid to help learners confidently act in a first aid emergency, as well as learning the relevant EYFS and Ofsted legislation.
