Online Baby & Child First Aid Course: Australia

This course is created by Tiny Hearts co-founders Nikki & Rach and our team of medical experts.

During Nikki's time as a paramedic she would often be called to jobs where, had parents been confident with simple first aid, the outcome could have been very different. Kids could have been treated at home by their parents or, even more devastatingly, lives could have been saved.

As parents themselves, Nikki and Rach know how important it is to have the knowledge and skills to recognise and respond to emergency situations with our children confidently.

We have designed this course to focus on the most frequently reported on first aid emergencies. The course includes:

• First Aid Foundations
• Understanding your healthcare options (flag system)
• How to Identify a critically unwell child
• Baby & Child CPR
• Defibrillation
• Recovery Position
• Choking
• Respiratory Distress
• Sepsis
• Serious Rashes
• Fever
• Febrile Convulsions
• Allergies & Anaphylaxis
• Managing Injuries
  - Mechanism of Injury
  - Bleeding
  - Head Injuries
  - Broken Bones
  - Burns
• Envenomation & Poisoning
  - Poisoning
  - Bites & Stings
• Tips from an ex-paramedic and mama

About 1 to 1.5 hours of video, fully self-paced. Watch it in one sitting or in five-minute chunks while bub naps. You keep lifetime access, so you can come back and refresh before every new stage.

The beauty of our online courses is that you don't have to wait to start learning! You'll receive access via email, which may take a moment to arrive. If it hasn't appeared in your inbox after several minutes, please reach out to us at hello@tinyhearts.co.

Once purchased, you will be able to access the course straight away. We provide you with lifetime access to refresh your knowledge whenever needed!

Yes, you receive a certificate of completion when you finish the course. It is not a nationally accredited workplace qualification, and that is normal for parent courses. If you need an accredited certificate for a job in childcare, you would need an RTO-delivered course instead.

Yes. The course content follows the Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) guidelines, and it was built by paramedics who have used these skills in real emergencies.

We offer a 100% money-back guarantee. If you complete the course and don't feel it was valuable, we will refund you. We are confident you will walk away feeling more prepared and more capable in an emergency.

We love that our free content helps millions of parents feel more informed. But we hear time and time again from parents who've completed the course: "I thought I knew enough from your posts, but I had no idea how much I was missing." The courses go deeper, with full scenario-based training, practice-along demos, and the step-by-step detail you just can't fit into a 60-second reel.

Our courses cover infants, babies and children up to 8 years old. Whether you're pregnant, have a newborn, an infant, a toddler or a primary school-age child, the content is relevant. Many grandparents, nannies and carers complete the courses too.
