Blended Level 3 Paediatric First Aid
Our Level 3 Blended Paediatric First Aid course combines one day of practical, hands-on training (at your venue) by a registered UK-medic, with 6hrs of e-learning.
Training also includes FREE anaphylaxis training and certification.
All candidates are issued with a comprehensive Paediatric manual and training aids.
The beauty of an online syllabus is that you are able to recap and refresh the knowledge you have gained in a classroom setting, in your own time, and have as much time as you need to learn all about the other subjects. There is no limit on how many times you may access the online syllabus. The course is designed in a series of slides, videos and animations. There is a multiple-choice answer paper at the end of the online course and you will be able to download and print your own certificate, valid for 3 years.
The course meets all EYFS/OFSTED requirements and CSSIW and Scottish Early Years.

Why Train With Us?
- All our trainers are qualified medics
All of our trainers have hands-on experience of dealing with first aid emergencies and specialist knowledge of basic life support and paediatric first aid. They bring the experience of their workplace, either working in A&E departments, Paediatrics or for the London Ambulance Service to every class they teach.
- At least three years first aid training experience
It is one thing knowing what happens in a medical emergency, it is another skill being able to relate this to those with little or no knowledge of first aid in a clear and simple manner. Becoming a brilliant trainer, takes experience, for this reason we only employ trainers with at least 3 years of training experience.
- Active Learning
Every aspect of our courses employ active participation learning methods. We understand that candidates on the course expect to take home a huge amount of essential first aid information. We found the most effective method of teaching is to actively engage the class with the subjects. Our approach is based on the Montessori method of teaching, whereby learning is most effective in an enjoyable, relaxed and interactive environment.
- Small class sizes, at your convenience
Our classes are kept small. We feel our candidates need the space to practice and one-to-one attention to benefit most from the course. Small class sizes also allow the attendees to ask questions or for subjects to be covered in greater detail if needed. Classes can be booked at a time and location to suit you. (evenings and weekends at no extra cost)
- Experts in Child Development
Kitty Sullivan, founder of First Aid for Schools, is also a lecturer in Child Development. She regularly writes features for the press including a column for Montessori International, First News National Children’s Newspaper, London Baby Magazine and Baby & Me. She understands the stages of development and accidents which are most likely to occur at these stages. The courses therefore focus not only on how to treat an injury, but what is most likely to happen and importantly, how to prevent it. Committed to increasing public knowledge of first aid issues she also pioneered the UK National Choking Awareness Campaign.
