Be Prepared for an Emergency with Toddler First Aid Training Courses
It’s no exaggeration to say that as a parent or caretaker of a toddler, keeping them safe from harm is the most important goal. In the event of an emergency, do you know what to do? Even the best instincts to call for an ambulance immediately aren’t enough when it comes to those critical few minutes between the call and when the paramedics arrive in the ambulance.
Fortunately, Kids First Aid offers a toddler first aid course that prepares you to manage those minutes in a way that will give your toddler the best care and chances in a dangerous situation. The fortunate reality is that there is a proper way to approach emergencies, and you can prepare for them. Let us give you training for a situation that hopefully never arises, but if the worst happens, you will be thankful you’re ready.
Receive Toddler First Aid Training from the Professionals You Count on in Emergencies
We insist on the highest standards when it comes to our staff. Every one of our presenters is a highly-trained and experienced paramedic. With their combined greater-than-30 years of experience and training, they have been involved in virtually every emergency scenario, unfortunately involving toddlers in many instances. One of the things that we’ve learned through this firsthand experience is that, sadly, most parents lack the basic first aid knowledge to help their toddlers when they’re in the most vulnerable situation.
As it’s our mission to prepare you to deal with anything that can threaten your toddler, here are some topics we cover during our toddler first aid training courses:
- Lifesaving Procedures – We train you on how to administer procedures that are specific to toddlers properly. Even if you’ve had training on how to apply first aid to adults, the process is different for infants and toddlers, so it’s important to know how to approach CPR, burn care, choking assistance, and drowning threats without risking additional harm to your child.
- Identifying Threats – Through the courses, you will learn how to spot the difference between allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, reactions to poison or toxins, and hazardous infections such as meningococcal reactions. Knowing how to identify and respond to these diverse threats in the critical first few minutes will save lives.
- First Aid – Even situations that aren’t life-threatening demand an appropriate response. Learn how to provide basic care for burns, bites and stings, fits and fevers, and fractures and bleeding. You’ll learn what materials to keep on hand and how to properly administer them in a first aid setting with this course.
Rely on Kids First Aid to Train You How to Handle Those Critical Few Minutes
Our mission is simply to help you keep your child safe, happy, and healthy. Once you call Triple Zero, you’ll be able to set down the phone, rush to your toddler, and immediately begin the correct treatment until the ambulance arrives. Let our team train you how to take the right toddler first aid with our comprehensive three-hour workshop. Contact us now to find out more and schedule your training course.

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.
