How to ensure your baby is safe in their car seat this winter👇🏻

🚗 Do not strap your child in while they are wearing a bulky coat or sleepsuit - the material of the coat and any air trapped in it will mean that the straps are not tight enough against the baby’s body to stop them being shifted around in an accident.

🚗 Do the “pinch test” - pull the harness straps to a snug tightness which means if you try to pinch the harness horizontally you cannot pinch the material together.

🚗 Make sure the car seat harness straps are not twisted, this may distribute the weight incorrectly and cause injury.

🚗 If your child is in a rear-facing car seat, the harness straps should be in the slots at or below your child’s shoulders.

🚗 If your child is in a forward-facing car seat, the harness straps should be in the slots at or above your child’s shoulders.

For lots more advice about the law around car seats and what type of seat is right for your child’s age/weight, please take a listen to episode 24 ofthe Family Health Podcast episode in which we chat with an expert from Graco UK about car seat safety 🎧 We’ll link to this in the comments.

Still in two minds whether networking's for you? 🤔

You're not alone.

A lot of sole traders and larger business owners feel the same - until they attend a meeting that is...

Then, in our experience, they realise the benefits, such as making lasting connections and friendships with other local business owners, finding new and potentially lucrative leads, and the chance to learn from others or pass on their own wisdom.

They also realise that networking meetings (especially ours) aren't stuffy, corporate affairs - they're actually relaxed, informal and often a lot of fun.

So, why not come to our next meeting on the 21/11/25 from 7am-9am at Leighton Buzzard Golf Club? We have members from a whole range of sectors, we provide a hot breakfast, and if it's your first meeting, it's FREE. 😁

🟢 Childhood diabetes 🟢

It's World Diabetes Day on 14th November, so this week we're talking about diabetes in children - what it is, the signs to look out for, and what to do if you’re worried. With expert advice from a paediatric diabetes nurse and Diabetes UK, it’s a must-read for any parent or carer. We explain the simple 4Ts - toilet, thirsty, tired, thinner - to help you spot the early symptoms. Diabetes can be serious, but knowing the signs means you can get help fast. Read the blog or listen to the podcast episode to learn more and feel confident in what to do.

At Mini First Aid, where we’re all about bringing you trusted health advice in a friendly, no-fuss way. It's World Diabetes Day on 14th...

Hello! My name is Elaine and I am your Mini First Aid trainer here in Bedfordshire. I qualified as a nurse more than 30 years ago and have had a long career in the NHS. I have spent those years working as a midwife, a neonatal intensive care senior sister and for the last 14 years as a health visitor. My career has involved me working alongside many thousands of new parents as they negotiate such significant life changes. I have a wealth of knowledge and experience at my fingertips to share with you! As a parent myself – of two- now young adults, I am passionate about giving children the very best start in life. I know first-hand how parenthood can throw the unexpected challenge at any time and so how important it is to have the knowledge and skills to meet those challenges. This includes how to manage crises or emergencies that could arise with you baby or child. Would you know what to do if your baby or child was choking. Would your child know who to ring if you stopped breathing? Also important is equipping your child to know who to turn to and how to raise the alarm should a grown-up need emergency first aid. I am confident that our Mini First Aid courses are just what is needed to support all parents, including new and parents-to-be, grandparents and all carers ensure their children get the best start in life and I am looking forward to bringing this service to families in Bedford and Bedfordshire.
