This course is recommended for those who have an interest in child and infant basic life support (e.g. teams who are occasionally required to work with children or work in a public space such as a health and leisure facility). 

This course partly fulfils the requirements of Ofsted and the Early Years Foundation (EYFS), which asks for 12 hours of paediatric first aid training. Our two-day Paediatric First Aid (Level 3) may be more suitable for organisations seeking Ofsted/EYFS compliant paediatric first aid training.
