Qualified first aid training for children and carers

The safety of children and infants is a matter of paramount importance, along with making sure children themselves know what to do in a medical emergency. Children are more capable than they’re given credit for, and first aid skills could help them handle a situation with confidence. Through fun and interactive classes, kids will learn the fundamentals of first aid and build skills in communication, enabling them to help calmly if they’re ever in that scary position.

Our kids are precious to us, whether we are parents, carers or teachers, so learning how to take care of them in an emergency is crucial. With my paediatric first aid courses, you’ll learn how to safely manage incidents, prevent further injury, and even save a life. Knowing what to do in a high-pressure situation is a skill that cannot be overlooked, and one that you can utilise in all social situations and environments.

Excellent course. Well delivered and at a comfortable pace. All the information was presented well and the use of training aids to confirm knowledge was particularly useful. It soon became obvious that Rachel is very well experienced to teach the course and her use of her previous experiences, coupled with other accounts and events reinforced the importance of the training and scenarios where it could help to save a life. Would strongly recommend.

Rachael is a warm, friendly and supportive instructor. She makes every effort to make the training engaging and interactive and welcomes a wide range of students- from those who have never taken any first aid course before to those who are more experienced. Highly recommend!

When Rachael delivered training to our Association, she was knowledgeable, friendly and approachable. She led us through the training with professional patience – lots of patience! I would definitely recommend First Class First Aid and Rachael for your First Aid Training needs.

We found Rachael to be friendly, knowledgeable and professional. A serious topic delivered in a relaxed but appropriate manner. Would highly recommend First Class First Aid Training and will be in touch in the future.

I run my own beekeeping business (Sunnyfields Apiaries) and have guests attend the apiary over the summer, I approached Rachael and she helped me understand the appropriate training and qualifications. The training was excellent and made enjoyable with interactive elements which weren’t daunting or embarrassing. The training isn’t just running through the motions of the syllabus; she helps to make it relevant to your workplace and that was very much appreciated. I Highly Recommend booking your first aid training with First Class.
