Paediatric (Early Years) First Aid Training

Paediatric

The Paediatric first aid training helps ‘lay first aiders’ understand the role of the first aider in childcare, including the use of the equipment and first aid protocols. Aimed specifically at first aiders who work in childcare establishments from birth to 8 years and are responsible for the health, safety, and well-being of the children, these courses are essential for those working within early years and meet the full Ofsted/EYFS guidelines.

In line with Ofsted Early Years and Childcare Register requirements, at least one person who has a current full paediatric first aid certificate must always be on the premises and available when children are present and must accompany children on outings. Childminders, and any assistant who might be in sole charge of the children for any period, must hold a current full paediatric first aid certificate. The provision of first aid is a legal requirement in state and private schools and is essential to support both adults and minors whilst attending education facilities in the UK.

Once attained, the qualification lasts three years and to remain qualified, holders must complete another course within the final three months before the expiry of their current qualification. Students must be 16 years of age or over on the date of the start of the course. This course is accredited by FAIB but can be accredited by Qualsafe awards for a small extra fee, depending on your needs (you must inform Centaur Training Services if you want it to be accredited by Qualsafe when booking).
