Public Course Dates
Good News! We have public training dates for the following first aid courses in Glasgow
Last weekend our staff team completed their training in Paediatric First Aid. This has ensured that not only are our senior staff and qualified practitioners confident in their ability to respond to an accident or incident within the nursery but also our trainees. A massive thank you to our fabulous team for giving up their own time to come and do this but also a huge thank you to Sean from First Stop Safety Training for providing such an informative and engaging day. First Stop Safety Training offer all sorts of classes which include first aid for parents / families. I can’t receommend them enough if this is something you would be interested in.
We had our first aid training on sat 9th December and it was a great and positive experience. Sean was informative, friendly and managed to hold everyone's attention (no easy task on a saturday mornng). The quiz games made it fun and easy to remember what we had learned. The fact that this first aid training is so closely tied in with care inspectorate provided confidence that we were following the right guidance. Thank you so much.
