Would You Know How to Provide First Aid to an Infant? Take Our Basic Baby and Infants Course in Perth
There is nothing more terrifying than witnessing a child experiencing a medical emergency and being helpless to do anything about it. For parents, family members, and caregivers, this helplessness will no longer be an issue after they learn basic first aid for infants in Perth. At Kids First Aid, we are dedicated to helping new parents and adults caring for a baby or infant become skilled and confident enough to deal with emergencies.
Our first aid course in Perth has the unique advantage of being run by paramedics who are experienced in first response and knowing what is required in those precious minutes before the ambulance arrives. They offer first-hand experience, knowledge, and skills associated with the ten most common medical emergencies involving infants and children. Their knowledge has helped us to develop a concise and relevant first aid course especially for first-time parents with a new baby.
Baby First Aid Course for Perth Parents Provides Knowledge and Skills
Our basic first aid course focuses on ten household emergencies that may occur with a baby. The course can teach you when and how to administer CPR as well as how to deal with drownings, allergies, and anaphylaxis, choking, bites and stings, fits and fevers, poisoning, fractures and bleeding, burns, and meningococcal illness.
You will learn the skills you need to stay calm during an emergency, take control, and respond appropriately to your infant while waiting for the ambulance to arrive. The basic courses are one-off sessions that you can complete in just three hours. We also offer a private infant first aid course in Perth through which a trained paramedic will come to your Perth home and take you through the correct first aid responses to these emergencies.
With front-line experience, our qualified paramedics make these courses interesting, relevant, fun, and memorable. We encourage you to host a private infants first aid course for with a minimum of ten attendees. Provided everyone fits in the venue, there is no limit to the number of people you can invite to join you. You can engage extended family members, close friends, or other adults who may take care of your kids or other small children. You and everyone attending will have the peace of mind and confidence that comes from knowing how to recognise and respond to a medical emergency.
Online and Public Courses
We believe knowledge is critical to safety. Knowing which actions to take in the first few minutes after a medical incident or accident can make a significant impact on recovery. For those in the remote areas of Perth, we have online courses that give you the basic information and first aid response you need for attending to infants and children. This online course also gives you an opportunity to refer back to essential information when you need a reminder or if you want to share the information with family and friends.
We continually update and review our courses against current first aid protocol. We regularly hold open sessions for the public if a private course is not feasible. No matter which delivery method you choose, we’ll offer you information in an engaging and informative presentation to give you the knowledge and skills you need to administer infant first aid.
Contact us today to book in your basic course and get the confidence you need to take control in an emergency.

What attendees are saying about these invaluable first aid workshops
About an hour ago my 2 year old daughter swallowed a 5 cent
piece and wasn't able to breathe. The look on her face was terrifying. Thankfully, you helped me be prepared and know what to do. After the 5 back blows she spluttered, wretched and must've gotten the coin out of her airway as she started breathing again. It was honestly the most terrifying thing I've been through with my kids.
Thanks again for giving me the information to be able to handle the situation.

Last month my 11 month old daughter suffered a febrial
convulsion whilst in my arms and stopped breathing. He mouth and lips went blue & purple and she had a full convulsive fit. She had a fever that rose quickly and becuase of your course, i recognised the signs of what was happening, placed her in the recovery postion on the floor till the fit stopped and called the ambulance. Although a terrifiying experience as i was home on my home own, i kept calm and felt in control knowing i had the knowledge to help me daughter through.
I thought you should know what a difference it made to me in a emergency situation. My husband had not done the course and booked it and did it straight after, as he would not have known what to do. Thank you.
My husband and I attended your recent Woollahra course
after being very scared by a choking incident with our nine month old daughter the week before. What a great course! Alan was a wonderful presenter. He had so much great hands on experience. His stories kept things lively as well as illustrated the skills we need in a way that I'll remember. I also found it invaluable how he explained the cause of different injuries/conditions and the reason a particular treatment worked.
I've been surprised this past week how such a simple investment could make me feel more confident as a parent, but it really has.

In December I took my 12 year old daughter with me to one
of your first aid courses. This was in anticipation of her babysitting for others in the next few years.
Today it paid an unexpected dividend. As she and her 11 year old brother got off the bus and crossed the road, the young woman walking in front of them collapsed.
My 11 year old instinctively put out his hand to catch her head. My daughter moved the young woman to a safer place on the road by an island and placed her in the recovery position.
She then enlisted the help of an adult asking them to call the ambulance.

We just wanted to say a big thank you for the excellent
first aid course at Crows Nest on Saturday. We found the course was very practical and helpful and thought that Craig was a fantastic presenter. Knowing of his extensive experience and hearing his stories was great but we also found him to be very clear and good at reinforcing the main points.
Our poster is up to remind us of the things covered in the course. Hopefully we won't need to use what we've learnt but it's good to feel prepared..

I was amazed at how logical and simple so many first aid steps
for various situations are! Things have changed since learning all those complicated and confusing procedures in P.E. at high school! After realising how simple (and obviously life-changing) first aid really is I cannot help but wonder why it isn't compulsory for everyone to learn first aid! The fee is peanuts when compared to the value of what is learnt.

I would definitely recommend KFA to family and friends...
this information is best presented by KFA (Paramedic)...not passed on second hand. Really informative and kept encouraging us to be proactive rather than petrified.
