About the Paediatric First Aid Course
You can choose from two flexible delivery methods:
2-Day Face-to-Face Course
This traditional option takes place over two full days in a classroom setting. Led by experienced first aid trainers, this format offers hands-on, practical training in a supportive and interactive environment. Ideal for learners who prefer in-person instruction and real-time feedback, the full two-day session ensures you gain confidence through guided practice and scenario-based learning.
Blended Learning Option (1 Day Online + 1 Day In-Person)
Perfect for those who prefer a more flexible approach, the blended course combines 6 hours of online learning with 1 full day of face-to-face practical training.
Online Modules: Complete at your own pace, these interactive modules cover essential first aid theory, scenarios, and safety protocols.
In-Person Practical Session: Reinforce and apply your knowledge during a hands-on training day with expert guidance, focusing on CPR, recovery position, and emergency response for infants and young children.
Both options result in the same certified Paediatric First Aid qualification, fully compliant with Ofsted and EYFS standards.
