Baby and Child First Aid Class @ Lee on Solent Community Centre, Twyford Drive

From 10.30am - 12.45pm

The class is perfect for anyone that is expecting or has a baby/child and wants to learn some vital first aid skills without being overwhelmed with technical jargon. It's great for new and expecting parents, plus family, carers, friends and activity providers. I believe first aid should be informative, yet simple and fun to learn. Hopefully, my reviews speak for themselves! There are no scary videos or forced role play in my classes its all very informal and friendly.
