Babysitting and Paediatric First Aid Course - A Few Spaces Left!
There are still a few spaces available on Rossett Adult Learning's five week Babysitting and Paediatric First Aid course for Year 8 to 11 students. The course starts on Monday 24th February from 6.30pm to 8.00pm, taught by our very own First Aid Lead Ms Rogers and taking place in school in the LRC. The cost is £40.
This is a great way to gain confidence for babysitting and learn new skills. The course content will include important and useful issues around babysitting such as: the rights of the family and the babysitter, accident prevention, baby care skills and child protection issues, personal safety, and dealing with home emergencies. Students will learn essential first aid including the recovery position, infant and child resuscitation, choking, dealing with injuries and defibrillator training.
On successful completion of the course students will receive a St John's Ambulance Part 1 First Aid and CPR certificate, and a certificate in babysitting competency.
