Paediatric first aid training for nurseries in Cambridge.
Cambridge has one of the highest concentrations of nurseries and Ofsted-registered childcare settings in Cambridgeshire, driven by the city's large working population of university and science park staff needing reliable, full-day childcare. We deliver the full EYFS-compliant Paediatric First Aid course onsite, in small groups, so your staff get real hands-on practice rather than a lecture.
Why nurseries in Cambridge choose us
Cambridge's early years sector ranges from independent nurseries tucked into residential streets near the city centre to larger settings attached to the science and business parks on the outskirts, plus a steady number of registered childminders. Whatever the size of your setting, the legal requirement is the same: anyone who may be left in sole charge of children needs the full 12-hour Level 3 Paediatric First Aid qualification, not the shorter emergency course alone.
What the course covers
- Infant and child CPR, and safe AED use on children
- Choking, for both infants and children
- Severe allergic reaction and anaphylaxis response
- Meningitis recognition and febrile convulsions
- Fractures, burns and scalds
- Diabetic emergencies, asthma and poisoning
- EYFS reporting and parent communication considerations
Pricing for Cambridge settings
- Individual booking: £75 + VAT per person (£90 total, inc. VAT)
- Group booking at your setting: up to 12 learners for a flat £560, VAT included
- Emergency Paediatric First Aid (for staff not in sole charge): from £54 + VAT per learner
