Service Description

Basic First Aid knowledge is invaluable for parents, grandparents, carers and others. Our Baby and Child First Aid sessions aim to prepare parents and others to deal confidently with common childhood emergencies as listed below. This is not a certified First Aid Course; it aims to provide practical guidance and confidence to handle emergency situations. The workshop uses demonstrations, videos, quizzes and discussion. It is hands on and we will use specifically designed baby & child mannequins to practise CPR. The session will be 2.5 hours long and included in this timing will be on opportunity to ask Tammy any questions whilst enjoying tea and biscuits. You will also receive follow up information after the workshop. Your facilitator will be Tammy, who is trained in paediatric first aid & having raised 7 children, she has had some practise with common childhood ailments! ​ Please note babes in arms are welcome but we can't accommodate remotely mobile babies; this is because some of the workshop equipment is small and can get scattered around the group room and therefore we feel it is risky for babies who are mobile to join.
