Level 3 Paediatric First Aid

Paediatric First Aid

From September 2025, the updated EYFS statutory framework introduces new Paediatric First Aid (PFA) requirements for all early years providers. This applies to nurseries, schools, and childminders across the UK, making accredited training vital for compliance.

Our Full Paediatric First Aid course is designed for anyone working with infants and young children, giving you the skills to respond quickly and effectively in an emergency. Fully aligned with the 2025 EYFS and Ofsted guidance. This course can be delivered as a two day face to face course, rather than 1 day e-learning. Get in touch for more information.

All courses can be delivered on site at our training hub in Scarborough or at the customers location if required (Please phone to discuss options for external delivery).
All our trainers are Nuco Training qualified.
