Schedule a Family First Aid Course in Your Sydney, Melbourne, Perth or Brisbane Home
Whether you are a new parent or a caregiver that will be looking after a young child, investing in family first aid in Sydney or Perth is a worthwhile pursuit. Children present unique first aid challenges, and if you have never dealt with these challenges before, then you may feel a bit out of your depth. From babies, who can’t easily communicate what is wrong in an emergency, to young children, who play with such reckless abandon that injuries are almost inevitable, any parent or caregiver is bound to have their hands full with young kids. Knowing how to recognise emergencies and administer basic first aid to children can save lives or minimise the severity of injuries.
Kids First Aid: Your Source for Family First Aid in Melbourne, Brisbane and Australia’s Other Capital Cities
At Kids First Aid, we are here to help you navigate the challenges of administering first aid to babies, toddlers and small children. We provide in-home courses in Australia’s capital cities, helping parents, caregivers and family members learn how to respond to the first aid issues or emergencies that kids encounter most frequently. Our private workshops are in-depth and easy to arrange. Each session lasts three hours and covers a wide range of first aid situations. You will learn how to treat and dress burns, how to react to allergy attacks, how to save children from choking and how to respond if a child ingests a poisonous substance—among other skills.
Our courses for family first aid in Melbourne and throughout Australia are designed to give you the skills necessary to be the paramedic in an emergency—even just temporarily. The minutes between when an emergency strikes and when the ambulance arrives on the scene are longer than you might think, and they can make the difference between life and death. Kids First Aid helps you use these vital minutes to save a life or at least provide the child in question with some extra comfort.
Our courses are even run by paramedics, to ensure the highest quality experience possible for our pupils. Some of our competitors hire nurses to teach their courses, and while these individuals are incredibly knowledgeable and experienced, they can’t provide the first-hand insight of in-the-field emergencies that paramedics can. Paramedics make their living by knowing how to react in emergency scenarios and how to use those vital minutes after an injury or incident to save lives. Our paramedics share their knowledge and instincts when teaching family first aid in Perth or Sydney, giving parents and caregivers the ability to act more like paramedics when an emergency does strike.

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.
