Clare Flynn29th March 2018
I attended the Baby and Children's First Aid Course a couple of weeks ago, as a baby & child photographer as I thought it was vital I get first aid with working with babies quite a lot! This class was perfect for me as I had no training in first aid. I learnt a lot from this class and would recommend this class to everyone! 😊
Hayley Greer30th August 2018
Casual walk to school to see a little boy choking ... went to panic but remembered what Carolyn had said during a conversation about her first aid for parents course & I managed to calm mum down & explain to her that when we can hear the cough he’s not got a blocked air way & swilling him with water won’t work because he was actually having a little panic attack & needed to take a breath in through his nose which he did as soon as he heard me say it & his whole body relaxed & he finished his ice cream .... mum was amazing & I’m so happy to have learnt all about children’s first aid. Thank you Cal x
Clare Bowers24th June 2019
My husband and I have just completed the antenatal course which we both thought was excellent. As first time parents we literally had no clue! The course is well structured with experts each week covering not just the labour & birthing side, but also really practical steps like First Aid and looking after your baby when you bring them home (safe sleeping, bathing etc). Cal & the session leaders are really knowledgeable & also very friendly & open to any questions you have. We both felt it was very personable & good interacting with other new parents to be! Really useful course, has helped us immensely to feel more prepared for our little arrival. Cal is so welcoming & some of her little touches are so thoughtful. We highly recommend the course & I’m looking forward to bringing our little one to some of the other classes when she arrives! Thanks again xx
