first aid courses

Health and Safety in the Childcare sector is of vital importance and First Aid diplomas are one of key requirements for childminders, babysitters and nannies. Ofsted (the official body for inspecting nurseries and schools) made it compulsory for staff in nursery settings to hold a Paediatric First Aid Certificate.

Hopes and Dreams organise highly successful Paediatric First Aid courses on a regular basis which are suitable for parents and childcare professionals. To view upcoming course dates or to book a place, please fill in the form here and return it to us with a payment.

We are offering 10% discount if you book more than 3 weeks prior to the course date.

By attending one of our training courses, you would gain vital life-saving skills, so that in the event of an emergency you will know what to do and have the confidence to help.
