In the parent-child program First Aid for Infants and Toddlers, parents and caregivers will learn essential basics for typical childhood emergencies on November 6, 2026 – clearly explained, relatable to everyday life, and with space for voluntary practical exercises.

Calmly recognizing and correctly assessing childhood emergencies

An experienced paramedic will inform about what to consider in cases of choking, burns, poisoning, insect stings, and falls. The event will also focus on when a childhood emergency occurs and how adults can remain calm in a stressful situation.

Important techniques for babies and toddlers

This strengthens confidence in action and creates a valuable foundation for protecting child development.
