Flexible Paediatric First Aid Training Across the UK

This flexible approach combines online learning with face to face practical sessions, making it suitable for individuals, childcare providers, and organisations nationwide.

As a paramedic led company, we understand the importance of practical, accessible paediatric first aid training and make it easy to book the right course through clear information, flexible delivery options, and a simple booking process.

Paediatric First Aid training is available nationwide, with prices starting from £110 plus VAT per individual attendee. Pricing may vary depending on location, delivery method, and training partner.

Accreditation And Qualification Options

Although all courses are fully accredited by recognised bodies such as the First Aid Industry Body (FAIB), ProTrainings, and other equivalent awarding organisations, some employers or regulators may require an RQF (Regulated Qualifications Framework) qualification delivered through an Ofqual regulated awarding organisation.

In early years, childcare, and some educational settings, the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework may require a specific paediatric first aid qualification. Requirements vary by role, setting, and local authority guidance, so you should always check with your employer what is required for your role.

If you need an RQF or EYFS certification upgrade, please let us know before you book your course so we can arrange the correct certification pathway. Upgrades are available for a small additional fee where eligible.
