Many parents are concerned about the various problems that may impact their children. If you're a mother, caregiver, babysitter or you work with infants, studying baby first aid will empower you to act quickly to save a life.

Our baby first aid course and training program offers basic, life-saving techniques. It will give you the skills and knowledge to act quickly in case a baby encounters difficulties and requires first aid.

In order to comfort parents and better equip them for the first year and beyond, the series of short video-based lectures are correlated to the developmental phases of infants and cover a variety of situations, focusing on some of the most common difficulties that babies encounter.

The course will explain what to do if an infant is choking on an object, showing you the steps you should take in this situation. It will cover the process to follow in the event that an infant has a seizure, with information on what you should do in order to keep the infant safe during a seizure and the steps to follow after this situation, including aftercare and best practices. It will cover a wide range of circumstances and procedures, including how to do cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on an unconscious newborn who is still breathing and how to place an infant in the recovery position.
