What if we told you that a high temperature could cause your child to have a seizure, and many parents have never even heard of it?

It’s called a febrile seizure, and more often than not, when parents come to our baby & child first aid classes, it’s the first time they learn that this can happen.

We never share information to frighten you. We share it because knowledge replaces panic with composure 💚

If your child ever experiences a febrile seizure and you’ve never heard of one before, it can be incredibly distressing. But when you understand what’s happening and what to do, you feel calmer, more confident and in control.

Forewarned really is forearmed when it comes to our little ones.

What do you think?

❌ False

A fever after an injury can be a sign of infection or another complication. The NHS recommends seeking medical advice if a fever develops post-injury.

Every newborn baby in the UK is offered a newborn hearing screening test - here’s what you need to know as a parent.

Around 1-2 in every 1,000 babies are born with permanent hearing loss in one or both ears. This increases to around 1 in 100 babies who have spent more than 48 hours in neonatal intensive care.

Most babies with hearing loss are born into families with no history of hearing problems. That’s why this screening matters.

The newborn hearing test helps identify permanent hearing loss as early as possible, so families can access the right support, advice and treatment from the very beginning. Early diagnosis gives babies the very best chance to develop speech, language and communication skills, and to build strong bonds with the people around them.

If you give birth in hospital, the test is usually offered before you go home. If you have a home birth, or leave hospital quickly, a healthcare professional or health visitor will arrange it within the first few weeks.

The test is quick, safe and painless. A small soft earpiece is placed in your baby’s ear and gentle clicking sounds are played. The equipment measures how your baby’s ears respond to the sounds.
The test only takes a few minutes and most babies sleep through it.

Most babies will get a clear result straight away. Some babies will need another test, which doesn’t necessarily mean there’s a hearing problem, it can happen if your baby is unsettled, there’s fluid in the ear, or there was background noise during the test.

If further checks are needed, you’ll be referred to a specialist audiology team for more detailed assessments.

Screening is your choice, but it’s offered because early identification can make a huge difference.

If you’re expecting or have recently welcomed your baby, it’s completely normal to have questions about all the newborn checks. Being informed helps you feel confident in those early days.

‼️ Choking prevention starts long before the food ever reaches your child’s mouth.

One of the most powerful things you can do during weaning is prepare foods in a way that supports safe chewing and swallowing. Foods like grapes, sausages and bananas can be higher risk when served in round slices. Cutting them lengthwise changes how they move through the mouth and throat.

This simple step helps prevent food from blocking the airway and allows air to pass if food does momentarily catch, giving your child more time to clear it themselves.

Small changes in food preparation can make a big difference to safety and confidence at mealtimes.

Save this post if you’re weaning now or planning to start soon! 💚

Confirmed case numbers of measles in the UK have stabilised in the last 12-months, but there has undoubtedly been a resurgence of measles in England and around the world in recent years.

After reaching the highest number of cases recorded annually for over a decade in 2024, numbers stabilised in 2025 at around 950 recorded cases. Most of the cases in England have been in children under the age of 10 years with many outbreaks linked to nurseries and schools.

There’s no specific medical treatment for measles, so it’s important to get vaccinated as it’s the best protection against becoming seriously unwell. Swipe through for a reminder about what measles is and how to prevent or deal with an infection.

Please speak to your GP if you have concerns about vaccinations 💚

Does it feel like your child grows out of their shoes almost as soon as they are in them? Until the age of three, your child’s foot will grow around 2mm a month, that’s two sizes per year on average in the first 3-4 years of life.

So it’s pretty important that you measure your child’s feet regularly in those early years, organisations like Clarks recommend every 6-8 weeks until they are around 4 years of age.

Take a look at our guide to measuring and checking at home, this was created from the resources found on the website - check this out for lots more brilliant information and measuring advice.

Data showed that cases of Whooping Cough rose in England and Wales in 2024 and while we don’t yet have stats for 2025, it’s important that you know the signs to look out for.

The UK Health Security Agency warned of a steady decline in uptake of the vaccine in pregnant women and children. Please chat with your GP or midwife about vaccination.

Take a few moments today to familiarise yourself with the vaccines available and the symptoms and dangers of whooping cough so that you can make an informed decision 💚
