Welcome To Child Matters

This 12 hour paediatric first aid courses for childcare providers is designed for anyone working with children requiring OFSTED registration and will prepare you to be able to respond in a medical emergency as well as meet OFSTED & EYFS standards.

This 6 Hour Paediatric First Aid Course – Level 3 meets the requirements of the voluntary part of the OFSTED childcare register, which many nannies, au pairs and those in equivalent job roles are opting to join.

Our first aid for schools course can help train your team of teachers and school staff to deal with any first aid emergency.  The first aid for school’s course has been specifically designed to provide schools with an adapted HSE approved EFAW course covering both adult and child first aid, suitable for a school setting and perfect to fit within an inset or training day.

Currently, British schools have no obligation to teach students about first aid, despite the obvious benefits this education would bring.  From our experience of teaching children and seeing how much they gain from it, we think everybody should know how to save a life.

Child Matters is delighted to be delivering the Flat Stan first aid workshops.  Flat Stan first aid is an exciting new training concept which provides essential life skills for children (with lots of fun included), so that now or later in life they will know what to do in an emergency, so that they can help themselves and others.

This half day course covers safeguarding legislation and guidance.  Completion of the course will give you the knowledge to understand the processes for safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, including those suffering, at risk of suffering or significant harm.
