Has anyone been on any baby first aid courses that they could recommend?

What are everyone's thoughts on going on a course for baby first aid? Do you think it's helpful? A must do?

Thanks everyone x

I would say do it.
I never did it, but then again I am a fully qualified first aid instructor, with almost 15 years of experience teaching, and doing voluntary first aid work in a huge variety of places.
Basic first aid is a must for everyone in my mind :lol: Now if you were closer, I would be saying to use my dad as your instructor - teehee give him some business ( he runs his own business doing first aid instruction amongst other things)

I would go ahead and do it. I've done a paediatric first aid course when Lewis was younger and it was one of the best things I've ever done.
Always know what to do when something goes wrong. I can't remember the name of who I did mine through but it was through my children's centre and it was a 2 day course. I would definitely recommend one!

As a first aider of over 20yrs then I say do it. St John run a course in the community called baby safe. Google it :-) It just arms you with a bit more knowledge.
