Would you know how to care for your baby in an emergency? Equip yourself with the knowledge and skills to protect your family with this hands-on, 2.5 hour first aid course for babies and toddlers. You’ll learn CPR and other vital skills to help you confidently identify, respond to and manage common infant injuries and emergencies, and recognise when to go to hospital.

Mater Mothers’ first aid for babies is taught by our experienced paediatric and neonatal nurses, and includes information on: 

  • resuscitation (CPR) for infants and young children
  • choking
  • poisoning
  • burns
  • bleeding
  • fractures

Our course was developed by a highly qualified and experienced team including educators who train Mater’s exceptional staff, and is endorsed by clinicians working across both Mater Mothers’ Hospitals’ Neonatal Critical Care Unit and Mater Children’s Private Brisbane.
