Emergency Paedeatric
First Aid (1-day)

The Emergency Paediatric First Aid course combines practical, hands on training with
classroom based theoretical learning and includes practical assessment in CPR and emergency
first aid. The course has been developed by professionals experienced in working with infants
and children and is particularly suitable for teachers, childminders, crèche staff, playgroup
workers, and anyone who has responsibility for the care of children and infants and wishes to
achieve a nationally regulated Level 3 qualification.
This course equips learners with the skills and confidence to respond effectively to a range of
emergency situations that may arise in a childcare setting, including basic life support, choking,
and the management of minor injuries.
This one-day (6-hours) interactive course meets current Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS)

Assessment & Certificate
Assessment takes place continuously throughout the course and evaluates your ability to act

confirms your knowledge, skills, and understanding of managing and treating a range of
emergency injuries and illnesses.

 

Qualification Renewal

To maintain this qualification, learners must be reassessed against all the learning outcomes and
assessment criteria of the original course. This is achieved by attending the same six-hour
Emergency Paediatric First Aid course.
