Baby Talk First Aid — baby & child first aid for parents and carers

The session every parent, grandparent and carer should do — infant CPR, choking and childhood emergencies, taught by a paramedic and mum.

For parents & carersInfant CPR & chokingPrivate groups welcome

Nothing is more frightening than an emergency involving your own child. Baby Talk First Aid gives parents, grandparents and carers the practical skills to respond calmly and quickly when it matters most.

In a relaxed, judgement-free session, Leah — a working paramedic — walks you through the emergencies she's actually attended involving babies and young children, and exactly what to do while the ambulance is on its way. Book it privately for your mothers' group, playgroup or family and we'll come to you.
