Mini First Aid Hull and East Riding

Don't take our word for it

It was a pleasure meeting Kate and Jacky from Mini First Aid and being taught what to do in case of an emergency. Learning CPR and what to do when a child is choking is invaluable. Obviously, I hope I never had to use the things I learned in today’s class, but horrible things happen and knowing these techniques can really make a huge difference. The class was fun and accessible given the seriousness of the topic. I would highly recommend everyone doing it.

Jodie came and gave a fantastic session at my house last evening which my friends and family found very informative and enjoyable. Jodie is very knowledgeable in what she does and we all felt that we had learnt some really useful and important safety techniques. Would highly recommend Jodie’s class if you are a mum to be or parents. Thank you so much xx

Had a session with 6 friends/family yesterday evening and really enjoyed the class. Very informative but also laid back making it easier for everyone to join in. The information and demonstrations have made me feel more confident with dealing with situations that may arise with my newborn baby both now and as he gets older. The thought of him choking scared me to death before last night to the point that I was dreading the weaning off milk time but after the session I feel more at ease with it knowing that I would know what to do if the situation arose. Jodie is a lovely person and I would definitely recommend this class to others.

"We are so glad we have done a Mini First Aid class. We enjoyed the class, found it really useful and feel so much more prepared in the build up to having our baby.”

We completed the course when our baby was tiny and now am very thankful we did. At 8 months old now and into everything, he started to choke on an ice cube. He went red, couldn't cough and was starting to go blue. The invaluable advice learnt at the course most certainly helped to save his life! Thank you Mini First Aid x

Knowing you already Jodie I know how knowledgable, capable and passionate you are so not surprised at all at how good the session was today! Really impressed and would highly recommend to anyone! Great balance between professional delivery of important information and informality, meaning the group were comfortable to ask lots of questions which were all confidently answered, and share personal experiences. I definitely feel better informed and more confident that I would know what to do should I need to. Thank you xx

The UnMumsy Mum - Sarah Turner

There are a gazillion things I never seem to get around to doing (fixing the broken blind in our bedroom, getting some photos printed of ‘the baby’ who is almost two but still doesn’t exist on our walls, pinning down the coffee date I’ve been promising my neglected friend via WhatsApp for at least 6 months…) BUT this morning I finally got my arse in gear and ticked off something from my ‘Really Must Do’ list by attending a First Aid class designed specifically for parents, grandparents and carers of babies and young children. It took just two hours out of my morning and covered a whole host of stuff including what to do if a child is choking, how to deal with burns/breaks/bleeding and the basics of life-saving CPR for kids.

I took part in the two hour course this morning and cannot recommend it enough! I’m already trained in child first aid due to my job, but I’m about to become a mother and wanted some information on first aid for babies. The trainer was so friendly and made the class really enjoyable. She was able to make me feel more confident in dealing with possible baby injuries and my own knowledge of coping with different situations. A bargain at £20 for peace of mind, thank you!

I cannot recommend Mini First Aid enough. Kate ran a private class for me and my 11 year old daughter in the comfort of our own home, which was perfect especially as my babies are due any day now. My daughter and I feel much more confident in knowing what to do in a range of emergency situations and I also got some extra twin tips from Kate as a fellow twin Mum! It's such an important life skill that every parent and carer should have so I would urge you to book a Mini First Aid course today.

Sky are always looking for ways to better support their staff and Parents@Sky Network offers support and benefits to staff who are parents. I came across Mini First Aid through a Facebook promotion and there was a huge demand for the Infant and Child First Aid class which was shared on our internal and external social channels. The communication and organisation of the event was excellent - Sarah-Lou was professional, engaging and even injected some parent style humour! The class was interactive and educational - everyone took something away from it including much more confidence in dealing with any emergencies which could arise with their little ones. The feedback received on the back of it was amazing! It was a great success and hopefully something we can do again, and potentially roll out to other sites in the UK. Thank you Mini First Aid, you were a pleasure to deal with!

Shereen Puccio - Class attendee

We attended the Mini First Aid class when I was pregnant last year. Fast forward to now and my baby girl is 8months old and my training has just saved her life! My daughter began silently choking on a piece of toast and had started to turn purple, because of my training I remained as calm as can be in that situation and was able to get her in the correct position and give her some black blows and retrieve the nasty culprit. £20 I paid for that course, it was the best £20 I ever spent because my daughter's life is priceless. I know for a fact before attending the course I would have just panicked and screamed, not knowing the best course of action. Thank you so much Mini First Aid, you saved my daughter's life and for that I'm eternally grateful????.

The Mini First Aid Class (filmed for ITVBe) was a fantastic class, both Arg and I found it a really good and informative session

Bit late too the party but here goes...

💚 Health on the Shelf 💚

Ariel was putting up her Christmas lights and has fallen from the roof. She isn't sure why she fell, but I imagine it is because she was barefoot and wearing a ballgown 🤷🏼‍♀️
Luckily Elf has appeared to provide some more emergency first aid ⛑(interestingly nobody is suspicious about how promptly he is arriving at all these incidents...😜) He is keeping Ariel calm whilst ensuring she stays in the position he found her by supporting her head. Of course he also called 999 📞

‼️Remember
▪️Suspect a spinal injury if someone has fall from a height, had a heavy blow to the head or neck, been involved in a high speed incident, dived into shallow water or reports neck or back pain after any accident

‼️Treatment
▪️Call 999
▪️Do not move the casualty unless they are in danger
▪️Support the head
▪️Keep the casualty calm and still
▪️Monitor them closely
▪️Children can find this very scary - try to keep them still but don't restrain them if they are trying to move
