The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that all expectant/new parents learn CPR. Choking is the #1 cause of accidental infant death. CPR and choking relief skills are vital for parents of infants of young children.
This fun class follows American Heart Association Guidelines, featuring infant and child CPR, choking relief, AED use, as well as hands-only CPR for adults. The class is especially geared for parents.
Our CPR instructors are certified by the AHA and have experience working with more than 20,000 new families, and we are skilled in the safety challenges that new parents face. We also include other essential safety information specific to new families: SIDS prevention, poison control and car seat safety.
Non-crawling babies are welcome to attend with their parents.
