Emergency Paediatric First Aid
One-day emergency paediatric course for anyone who works with children.
Paediatric First Aid Course (2 Day — Level 3)
The full Level 3 paediatric qualification, accredited by Qualsafe Awards and meeting EYFS requirements — delivered at your setting, with a choice of two formats.
Course Overview
Our Paediatric First Aid course leads to the full Level 3 Paediatric First Aid qualification, accredited by Qualsafe Awards — one of the UK's largest Ofqual-recognised awarding organisations.
The qualification meets the requirements of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, making it the right choice for nurseries, pre-schools and childminders who must have appropriately qualified staff on site.
Choose the delivery format that suits your staffing rota best:
- 2 days of on site training at your setting, or
- 6 hours of e-learning completed in advance, followed by just 1 day of on site training — halving the time staff spend away from the children.
Both routes lead to the same Level 3 qualification and include up to 12 students per course.
