Who are we?

First Aid Heroes is a parent run company that wants to ensure every child has the skills they need to deal with minor incidents and respond to major emergencies. We believe basic first aid is a life skill comparable to swimming that can give children and parents the confidence to encourage outdoor play and minimise the risks associated with it.

We also know how busy life is for parents and with costs of living skyrocketing, grandparents are supervising and minding kids more and more. By knowing basic first aid children can assist not just their peers but their grandparents who are at a stage of life that increases the risks of cardiac conditions and strokes.

What do we do?

First Aid Heroes provides structured, simplified first aid programs to primary school aged children. Our program is based on the adult First Aid Course and is designed in consultation with nurses and primary school teachers to ensure it balances the key aspects of first aid with learning elements required to maximise children’s retention.

What ages do we teach?

Our course is divided into 3 levels with each level being performed twice. Level 1 is designed for years 1 and 2, level 2 for years 3 and 4 and level 3 for years 5 and 6. By repeating each level twice before moving on children are able to maximise recall and build on their knowledge as they move through the program.

Where are our courses taught?

Our courses are designed to come to the children at schools, after-school programs, holiday camps and private groups upon request. Our facilitators will bring all the necessary equipment so all the kids need to do is show up and let the learning happen.
