Baby First Aid Courses for Parents & Carers
We run several baby & child first aid courses for parents and carers every every month in various locations across the Wirral. We run weekday and weekend courses that are great value for money, and we can even come to your playgroup, nursery or home to deliver bespoke courses that suit you. We like to keep class sizes small so there will never be any more than 12 people on one of our regular courses, ten on one of our baby friendly courses or eight on our child friendly courses.
Who Should Attend?
Parents, new parents, expectant parents, grandparents and anyone who looks after and cares for children aged 0-12 years.
Please Note: Our courses train you in providing first aid to babies and children and require concentration and your full attention. We have some courses where you can bring pre-crawling babies and other sessions where you can bring young children along too, as we have adapted these to make them work well. It is not possible to bring babies and children along to our regular sessions as some people like the option to learn child free.
What Subjects are Covered?
1. Choking in babies (0-1) and children (1-puberty)
2. Unconsciousness - Recovery Positions in babies (0-1) and children (1-puberty)
3. Basic Life Support (BLS or CPR) for babies (0-1) and children (1-puberty)
4. Burns
5. Head Injuries and bumps
The above are the core areas covered on our parent and carer first aid courses, however you should feel free to ask us to cover any further areas that are of particular concern. Whether that is asthma, allergic reactions, or anything else, we'd be happy to cover those during the course.
How Much Does it Cost?
£25 per adult.
If you book 2 or more guests onto a course you receive a free baby and child first aid handbook.
What’s Included?
The course itself will run for no longer than two hours.

Worthwhile course to learn or remind us what to do to keep little ones safe although truly hope such skills are never needed it’s reassuring to have them.

We have 2 young granddaughters and I was so worried about anything happening to them I decided to enroll on the course. Fabulous confidence booster and yes, I probably will still panic but at least I will know what to do as what I thought I had to do was totally wrong! Thank you so much xx ⭐️⭐️⭐️HIGHLY RECOMMENDED ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Really pleased I did the first aid course with Catherine at Little Lambs. She made the booking process really easy and was very flexible on numbers and having babies in the session (which we hosted at my house). Everyone found it really valuable. I would 100% recommend to anyone who cares for children.

I attended Little Lambs first aid course as I have a young granddaughter and wanted to have some knowledge of how to help in case an emergency situation arises. Catherine was exceptional in her teaching. She made everything very clear and was happy to go over all the steps as much as was needed. It is a very informative course and doing hands on training is very beneficial. I came away from the course feeling much more confident having gained some very important first aid knowledge. Highly recommend Catherine and her first aid course.

Wonderful day! Enjoyable learning in a small group with a very friendly and experienced teacher who understands the importance of face to face learning. Had fun sharing experiences together with staff from another setting and bringing real situations to life with practical equipment for trying out techniques.
