First Aid Training for Childcare & Education

Compliant training delivered onsite to your Gold Coast childcare centre, kindergarten, or school

Childcare centres, kindergartens, and OSHC services on the Gold Coast have strict first aid requirements under the National Quality Framework. SKLD Training delivers compliant first aid, CPR, asthma, and anaphylaxis training directly to your centre - minimising disruption to ratios and ensuring your entire team is trained together with scenarios relevant to the education and care environment.

Why Specialised Training Matters

Nominated supervisors and a proportion of educators are required to hold current HLTAID012, annual CPR, and asthma/anaphylaxis training
Children are at higher risk of choking, allergic reactions, and febrile convulsions - staff need specific paediatric first aid skills
Onsite training means your team practises in the actual environment where emergencies would occur
Group training ensures consistent emergency response protocols across all staff
Scenario-based training builds genuine confidence - not just a certificate
