Paediatric 6 hour First Aid for Nannies and Au Pairs

The Ofsted requirements for Nannies and Au Pairs depend on whether registration is required . If you choose to register, in most cases people working with children including Nannies, Au Pairs, Child minders, Nursery Workers and Childcare Workers still need the  12 hour course. If you are looking at also entering other childcare sectors, then the full 2 day or our blended paediatric course would be best.

Regulations for the Childcare Register require the childminder or home child carer to have an appropriate first aid qualification. However, it is for the provider to determine whether these minimum standards are appropriate for the type of care they provide and whether more advanced training or qualification is required.

This one day or online/blended course is for Nannies and Au Pairs who do not need to register and is also ideal as an annual refresher for any paediatric first aid course.

The content of this and all our courses has been independently certified as conforming to universally accepted Continuous Professional Development (CPD) guidelines and come with a Certified CPD Statement.
