Level 3 Paediatric First Aid (2-Day Classroom Training)
This comprehensive 2-day, classroom-only course is specifically tailored for individuals working in environments with children, such as schools, nurseries, and daycare centres. Unlike blended courses that include e-learning, our fully in-person format ensures maximum hands-on practice and real-time guidance from FAIB-certified instructors. Participants gain essential paediatric first aid skills, including managing childhood injuries and illnesses, CPR for infants and children, and emergency response techniques, making this course ideal for childcare professionals committed to maintaining the highest safety standards.
Why First Aid Training Matters
First Aid training is crucial for fostering a safe and responsive work environment. Employers who invest in first aid training not only comply with Health & Safety regulations but also empower their teams with the skills to handle emergencies with confidence. Our courses are particularly beneficial for employees in industrial, warehousing, and high-risk settings, where accidents may occur. Having a trained first aider on-site can mean the difference between a minor incident and a major accident, potentially saving lives and reducing downtime.
