Public Classes

Our infant and Child First Aid course is proudly recognized by healthcare providers and institutions and trusted by many parents. This course specifically does not lead to professional certification. If you need formal certification, I offer certification through the American Red Cross for local St. Louis residents. You’ll get the education and training in a blended learning style and can meet with me privately or in one of our community certification courses. Please message us help@bitesizedpeds.com
