Who is this training for?
This is a paediatric first aid course developed specifically for maids/nannies/carers of children and babies. The leading causes of death in young children after road accidents are drowning, poisoning and falls all of which could be prevented from occurring with correct supervision and training. Looking after children is one of the most important jobs in the world yet requires no qualifications and we often leave our children in the care of maids or nannies who have very little or no formal training. Thus, if an emergency situation occurs they are completely unprepared. Many don't even know the emergency services telephone number! Essential course for those who care for young children
