First Aid for Children in Munich

The answer consists of 2 aspects:

If you have a baby who doesn't like coming to an event like this, it is of course good to come in advance. Some babies are restless. However, this is not a problem for the course. On the other hand, it is very nice to bring your baby with you. There are usually other parents with babies as well. Babies are really welcome!!!

The topics:

As for emergencies, it actually gets really dangerous when babies are on solids. So attending the course at six months old is quite sufficient in my experience. When children choke intensively, this often happens at one year of age. That's a bit of a generalization, but it's a very reasonable assessment.

Swallowing and foreign bodies in the airways
Swallowing and foreign bodies in the oesophagus
Lifeless babies, resuscitation on a dummy, drowning accidents
Febrile seizures
Croup attacks
Poisoning in the home and in nature (with photos of poisonous plants)
Falling on the head, head injuries, concussions
Bleeding and lacerations
Wounds and wound care
Nosebleeds
Wasp and bee stings
Allergies (local and generalized)
Medicine cabinet: Equipment and medication
Burns and scalds
Electrical accident

There are topics that sometimes cannot be discussed in detail in 3 hours: e.g. sudden infant death syndrome (there is a helpful video on this), tick bites & removal, travel medicine, dehydration and fever, dental accidents)

There is always the opportunity to ask questions. The course is interactive!!!

The courses last 3 hours and start at 18:00 or 19:00.

Yes, you will receive a certificate of attendance, which also serves as a receipt. Just ask for it during the course. The certificate does not cost extra.

As a rule, health insurance companies do not reimburse any costs, but there are bonus programs in which you can participate. There are many health insurance companies and the rules are not standardized.

Per person 50 EUR and for parents 100 EUR

You are welcome to take breastfeeding babies and small children with you. There is no childcare! Most courses take place on the floor (no street shoes) and are particularly suitable for children. Please bring your own blanket etc. If your child is very noisy, this can of course lead to problems in the course of the class in the long term. Normal children's noises are very welcome.

We are the only provider of first aid courses in Munich where children are welcome!

No, there is a colorful, detailed booklet for all participants in German. It contains all the important information. There is also an English PDF version 

There are also 6 colorful emergency posters on the topics of emergency calls, choking, resuscitation, pseudocroup, poisoning and poisonous plants. The print version is German and the Englich version comes as PDFs

Cancellation rules for the English courses

There are different cancellation rules for the English courses. There are fewer of these courses, the number of participants is limited and it is more complicated to rebook participants if someone cancels at short notice due to illness. (therefore different prices apply)
Courses must be canceled one week before the start. Otherwise payment is due. However, there is an online video course in English or German as a substitute. This is as family-friendly as possible.

If you are unable to attend the course because the baby is born early - no problem, we will give you 150 percent goodwill on your cancellation.

There is the possibility to pre-register on the waiting list. If someone cancels, you will get the place(s). Sometimes early, but sometimes also at short notice if someone cancels due to illness.

more than 28 years, I started in Munich with the birth of my first daughter. I didn't dare before that ;). 28 years is a long time in which you hear a lot of stories. Some things also change in the medical sense. I still like to learn new things too.

German and English in one household?
Some are interested in the onlinecourse. This is a very convienient way to learn . We know that so well. It´s not always easy (with German). We offer you the online course in both languages. If you purchase the German Online Course we will give you the Englich Course for free. Please contact us.

First aid for children does not involve ground exercises. We do not simulate motorcycle accidents and there are no other physical exercises. First aid for children takes place primarily in the mind.

Please note: In some rooms, however, shoes must be removed because of the crawling area.

Nobody has to take part in anything, everything is completely voluntary
