Wasn’t it just 2 minutes ago that we were posting the summer safety tips?! These stats aren’t here to scare you, they’re here to remind you that alongside all the spooky fun, Halloween can be a dangerous night for families.

🎃 Take precautions, be safe on the roads and don’t let your children start on their Trick or Treat haul until you’ve checked it over (and maybe nabbed a few as parent tax?).

Swipe through the slides for some handy tips on how you can keep your child safe this spooky season. 👻 🧙

Did you know popcorn is a really risky food for young children? 🍿 As delicious and easy a snack as it is, the size and shape of popcorn means it can lodge in the airway, and its lightweight nature poses an aspiration risk too - meaning it can be inhaled into the lungs. 🫁

I’m Daniela, a senior paediatric nurse and trained teacher. You can book a 2-hour class with me to learn lifesaving skills that are invaluable as a parent, grandparent or carer of babies and children. 👶🏻

Hi, I’m Daniela. 👋
With so many new followers it’s about time that I re-introduce myself!

💚 First and foremost, I’m Mummy to my wonderful 2-year old daughter. Her dad and I have been married for 3 years (together for 10!), and we live in Cardiff.

💚 The soundtrack to my life is invariably Taylor Swift. Midnights tops the albums for me because it was new & all I listened to when I was pregnant with my daughter. 👶🏻

💚 I’ve got 10 years of NHS experience, with much of that as a specialist Neonatal Intensive Care Nurse. I was promoted to a Senior Nurse 3 years in, and I adore those little babies. Tiny superheroes! I recently saw an ex-patient of mine who is now 8, and it warms my heart to see them do so well.

💚 I’d always had a passion for teaching, so had woven it in wherever I could. After a health scare, I realised that if you love 2 jobs…why not do both? 🤩 I undertook my PGCE with a specialism in Maths, and becoming both a nurse & a teacher was the best thing I ever did. I am proud to be teaching my daughter that you can be whatever you want to be, no limitations ⭐️

💚 First Aid Cymru was born from 3 things:
👉 My love of saving lives
👉 My love of teaching
👉 But mostly, my love for my daughter. I had to save her life in our hallway at 8 months old, and I have made it my mission to teach as many people as possible how to do the same.

💚 I don’t just teach Baby & Child First Aid! First Aid Cymru is accredited by the FAIB to provide professional certification for first aid training, and I am always travelling around Cardiff to different businesses, offices and clinics to run courses. I teach everyone, from sports coaches to surgeons! ⭐️

💚 My classes are baby-friendly. However you feed, however they sleep, however you wean, you are ALWAYS welcome at my classes.

I’d love to meet you at a class soon, and teach you how to save a child’s life. It’s a skill you hope you’ll never have to use, but might, like me, be always grateful you had. ❤️

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you want to know why you should book a Baby & Child First Aid course, all you need to do is look at Google reviews. It’s just me, no other trainers, so all comments are from real people who I have directly taught. Looking at them makes me all emotional 🥹💚

Other than our list of wonderful 5 ⭐️ reviews, why else should you book a Baby & Child First Aid course with ?

🚨 81% of parents don’t have adequate first aid skills
🚨 Accidents and emergencies can happen to anyone, at any time. It happened to my daughter, and I’m a safety-mad paediatric nurse.
🚨 Child drowning deaths have DOUBLED in the U.K. in the last 5 years.
🚨 Out of hospital cardiac arrest survival rates in Wales are around 4.6% but, with effective first aid skills, survival can increase by 70%.
🚨 Kids are more prone to head injuries as they are top-heavy and fall head first.
🚨 Burns are more severe for children and babies, as their skin is thinner than ours.
🚨 20-30% of trampoline injuries require surgery.

🚑 I can teach you how to mitigate some of these sobering stats. I can show you how to reduce risk, and deal with emergencies if they were to happen.

🚑 £25 for 2 hours in a small group with an experienced paediatric nurse, you’re getting a really tailored class. In the words of parent from last week “the best £25 we ever spent”. 💚

You can book a class in my bio, with some availability still left this month! Don’t delay it, you never know when you’re going to need it.
