A fantastic day delivering Paediatric First Aid training for a new customer.

It’s always a privilege to work with new settings and support teams in building the confidence to respond in an emergency involving a baby or child. From CPR and choking to seizures, bleeding and anaphylaxis, today’s course covered the practical skills needed to act quickly and effectively when it matters most.

One of the things I love most about training is seeing confidence grow throughout the day. By the end of the course, the whole team was dealing with scenarios, CPR and AED use with so much more confidence.

Thank you to Little Explorers nursery for choosing 1st Steps First Aid for your training.

If your setting is due to renew training this year, feel free to get in touch for fully accredited, EYFS and Ofsted compliant Paediatric First Aid courses delivered in a relaxed, supportive and practical way.

Another week doing what I love, delivering first aid training to groups of learners from a wide range of settings, with a mix of Emergency First Aid at Work and Paediatric courses.

This video shows some of the practical elements being carried out, and the standard was genuinely impressive. From CPR and AED use to managing real life scenarios, confidence built throughout the session and it really showed.

I always say it does not matter where you work or who you care for, these are skills that everyone should have. Seeing people from different backgrounds come together and support each other through the training is one of the best parts of what I do.

A big well done to everyone who attended. It is clear to see the effort that went into getting the practical elements right, and that is exactly what makes the difference in a real emergency.

I’ve been a bit quiet on here the past few weeks, juggling courses, flying and keeping up with the school holidays

Here’s a little reel from this week’s Paediatric First Aid qualification course at

We covered some of the absolute essentials that every parent, carer and early years professional should feel confident with

• CPR for infants and children, knowing when and how to act can save a life
• Choking management, quick recognition and early action is key
• Recovery position, especially important for an unresponsive but breathing child
• Using an AED, it’s there to help you and will guide you step by step
• Managing common childhood incidents like burns, bleeding and febrile seizures

First aid isn’t about being perfect, it’s about having the confidence to step in and do something when it matters most

Well done to everyone who completed the course

If you’re a nursery, school or group who would like to arrange training, or a parent wanting to learn these life saving skills, get in touch

Another great day delivering Emergency First Aid at Work training with the DRLC team at The Burton Street Foundation

A brilliant group of staff, all fully engaged and getting stuck into the practical elements of the course. From CPR and AED use to managing real life workplace scenarios, everyone showed confidence and a real willingness to learn skills that could one day save a life.

This is what it’s all about. Giving people the knowledge and confidence to act when it matters most.

Thank you for having me!

If your team needs first aid training, get in touch to book a course and make sure your workplace is confident, compliant, and ready to act in an emergency.

A brilliant evening delivering an informal 2 hour paediatric first aid session for parents at this week.

A huge shout out to manager Penny, whose passion for not only her team and the children in her care, but also the families around them, really stands out. Creating opportunities like this outside of normal hours shows just how committed she is to her setting and community.

It was great to see parents taking the time to learn vital, life saving skills in a relaxed and supportive environment. Because first aid is not just for professionals, it is for everyone.

If you are a nursery, school or childcare setting and would like to offer something similar for your parents, I can deliver informal, engaging sessions tailored to your setting.

Helping more people feel confident to act in an emergency is what it is all about.

Really proud to be back with the team at Nurtured at Wakefield supporting their paediatric first aid renewal. It’s always great to work with a setting that truly values ongoing training and the confidence it gives their staff to act in an emergency. Thank you for your continued trust and for such lovely feedback, always a pleasure working with you all. ⛑️

Happy Friday!

It has been a busy week delivering Paediatric and Emergency First Aid at Work qualifications.

From the school staff at Orchard Primary Academy to the team at Generator Power LTD, I have worked with such a wide range of roles and experience. Different perspectives, different discussions, but all with the same goal. To gain the skills and confidence to save a life.

I genuinely never take for granted how lucky I am to be trusted with this training. Every course is interactive, practical and designed to build real confidence, not just tick a box.

Now I am enjoying a quiet sit down with a brew before next week begins and the admin catches up with me.

If your school, nursery, workplace or community group needs accredited first aid training, I deliver a range of courses. Group sessions, public courses and on site training available.

Get in touch to secure your 2026 dates.

Because first aid is not just a qualification. It is a life skill.

This week I welcomed back for their Paediatric First Aid renewal, and what a brilliant group they were.

The video shows part of their practical assessments. Confident CPR, clear communication, strong teamwork and safe decision making throughout.

Every single candidate passed.
And not just passed….passed to a high standard.

Renewals are never just a tick box exercise.
We revisit the why behind what we do.
We refine technique.
We build confidence.
We make sure that if something happens, they are ready.

Premier Education work with children every day, so keeping their skills sharp matters. It was a pleasure to see their professionalism shine through in every scenario.

If your team’s qualification is coming up for renewal, don’t leave it until the last minute. High quality, hands on training makes all the difference.
