Great opportunity to improve first aid skills for both parents and au pairs!
“The FREE BabySafe seminars have been especially designed to help parents cope with babies and young children in emergency first-aid situations.
Each seminar covers a range of different life-saving techniques including basic resuscitation, what to do if a child is choking, dealing with burns and scalds, spotting the signs of meningitis as well as car-seat safety advice.
The two-hour course also includes a practical session with RLSS volunteers, enabling participants to try out their skills on dummy babies and children.
From November until the end of March, eight FREE BabySafe seminars will be held at select towns throughout the UK. Everyone who attends will receive a free ‘goody bag’ packed with useful products and a free life-saving skills DVD.”
For the dates and locations of the eight BabySafe Workshops please follow the link:

Special thanks to our Host Mum (Ms. Moyes) who referred us to the programme.
