Pediatric First Aid

The American Heart Association's Heartsaver Pediatric First Aid course is designed for anyone dealing with children. It includes general first aid for children, asthma care, as well as adult, child, and infant CPR.


• First aid basics
• Medical emergencies
• Injury emergencies 
• Environmental emergencies
• Optional pediatric first aid modules are:
  - Pediatric first aid topics (eye injuries; fever; suspected abuse; and snake, spider, scorpion, tick and 
    marine animal bites and stings)
  - CPR and AED use
  - Asthma care training for child care providers



The course follows the requirements of the California EMS Authority for child care providers for First Aid and CPR. Also, being the standard in First Aid and ECC training, this AHA course is exempt from the EMS sticker requirement (See the CA EMSA FAQs page for more info). This is an 8 hour course, as required by the EMS Authority.


Everyday Heroes Training Center offers this course periodically to the public, but it is also available for onsite training. If you have a group needing certification, we will come to your school, daycare center, home, etc. to put on a private course for you.
