What Is the Paediatric First Aid Course?

The Paediatric First Aid Course in Annan is a 12-hour accredited programme created for those responsible for the safety and well-being of children and infants. You can choose to complete the training fully in the classroom across two days or opt for blended learning, which combines home study with a practical classroom session.

Topics include infant and child CPR, recognising and treating severe medical conditions, dealing with choking incidents, and managing everyday injuries. Once completed, you’ll be awarded a nationally recognised certificate, valid for three years.

✅ This course is fully compliant with Ofsted and EYFS requirements, ensuring you meet the standards expected in childcare environments such as schools, nurseries, and other early years settings.

Who Needs Paediatric First Aid in Annan?

The Paediatric First Aid Course is essential for many roles that involve caring for or supervising children. It’s particularly relevant for:

  • Childminders registered with local authorities
  • Early years and primary school teachers
  • Nursery and pre-school staff
  • Nannies, foster carers, and au pairs
  • Staff working in after-school or holiday clubs

It’s also valuable for parents and guardians who wish to feel prepared to manage emergencies at home.

What Will You Learn in the Course?

The Paediatric First Aid Course in Annan combines theory with hands-on practice to prepare you for emergencies involving infants and children. Over the 12-hour (2-day) programme, you’ll gain the confidence to recognise and respond to a wide variety of situations, such as:

  • Resuscitation techniques: child and baby CPR, recovery position practice, and responding to seizures.
  • Emergency management: assessing the scene, conducting primary and secondary surveys, and knowing when and how to call for professional help.
  • Medical emergencies: managing asthma, meningitis, diabetes, febrile convulsions, and severe allergic reactions (with safe use of adrenaline auto-injectors).
  • Everyday incidents: dealing with choking, heavy bleeding, burns and scalds, as well as bites, stings, grazes, cuts, splinters, bruises, and nosebleeds.
  • Serious injuries and risks: treating shock, fractures, head or spinal trauma, chest injuries, poisoning, electrocution, and exposure to extreme heat or cold.

How Is the Course Delivered?

The Paediatric First Aid course in Annan can be taken in two ways. You can complete it entirely in the classroom over two consecutive days, with each day lasting around six to seven hours. Alternatively, you may choose the blended format, which combines self-paced online study with one on-site practical training day. Whichever option you select, the course fully complies with EYFS and Ofsted standards, resulting in the same nationally recognised certificate.
