This course is vital for anyone who cares for infants and children, such as parents, guardians, grandparents or those who have an involvement with infants and children, and would like to learn key paediatric first aid skills. Perhaps you have gained a level 2 or 3 childcare qualification and have entered into an early years setting, this course will build on your knowledge and allow for a safer setting.

Learners must be at least 14 years old on the first day of the training and be able to perform practical tasks at floor level. There are no other formal entry requirements but we strongly recommend that Learners have a minimum of Level 1 in literacy and numeracy or equivalent.

Due to the practical nature of this course, Learners should wear appropriate clothing and footwear, e.g. trousers and flat footwear.

This qualification is valid for a period of 3 years. The Learner needs to retake the qualification before the certificate expiry date to remain qualified.

The course can be delivered in person at one of our bases or at a venue of your choosing. In the instance that we provide the training at a location of your choice the fee is subject to change based on the request.
