First aid course · EPFA

Emergency Paediatric First Aid

Emergency first aid for babies and children. EPFA is a separate qualification from full 12-hour PFA and is not a substitute where your role requires full PFA.

20+ years of first aid training experience

NEBOSH qualifications, including Managing Stress in the Workplace

University of Central Lancashire qualification in mental health and wellbeing

What your team will be able to do

  • Respond to life-threatening emergencies involving babies and children
  • Practise age-appropriate CPR and choking responses
  • Communicate clearly with emergency services and other carers

Why it matters to your organisation

Employers must make adequate and appropriate first aid arrangements under the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981. Practical training helps teams respond calmly and confidently. Choose training using your employer’s first aid needs assessment; a course alone is not a complete first aid provision.

Course details and suitability

Share the ages you care for, your setting and any exact course requirement given by your employer or childcare provider. Do not choose a course on duration alone; suitability depends on your responsibilities and the requirements of your role.

Delivery and venue

On-site group training across Lancashire, Greater Manchester and Yorkshire. Dates and venue arrangements are agreed before booking.

Price and quotation

Price on request. The quotation will set out the course fee, delegate numbers and agreed delivery arrangements before you book.

Training and booking questions

What happens after I request a quote?

Victoria reviews your group, location and requirements. Dates, delivery arrangements, the total fee and any qualification, assessment or certificate details are confirmed with you before you agree to book. Submitting a request does not reserve a place or take payment.

Who registers and awards qualifying first aid courses?

Qualifying first aid courses booked directly with Happy Mind Medic are registered through NucoPlus / Nuco Training. Where applicable, FAA awards the regulated qualification.

Happy Mind Medic delivers your training; it does not award the regulated qualification. Course-specific assessment and certificate details are confirmed before booking.

How do I know whether this course fits my role?

Emergency Paediatric First Aid is not interchangeable with full Paediatric First Aid. Where your setting requires full PFA, do not assume EPFA meets that request. Compare the full course and confirm the appropriate route with your setting.

Use the first aid course checklist and confirm your employer or setting's requirements before booking.
