‼️Choking - how scary‼️

Nothing will substitute basic first aid and thankfully it says this in the manual for LifeVac.

The money you spend on a LifeVac would easily cover a Paediatric Emergency Basic Life Support class and your head knowledge and hands will always be with you whereas the LifeVac may not be.

Do you have a LifeVac?
Have you ever used one?
Love to hear your thoughts 💭

At Babies Who Brunch I cover what to do if your baby gags and/or chokes.

At the Emergency Paediatric Basic Life Support workshop Dr Clare covers what to do if your baby or child chokes and also CPR.

Knowledge is easily carried. My advice, find a paediatric emergency first aid class close to you and get the hands on experience and know what to do if an emergency ever happens

Baby’s hearing 👂🏽

I don’t know a lot on this subject so please share any advice if this is your area of expertise.

But what I do know is, babies should not be exposed to loud noises i.e. noises over 80 dB. Noise under 60bB is good for little ears. To protect their hearing, ear defenders might be a good purchase especially if you are for the North West 200 tomorrow or the fireworks in Portstewart tonight!

A little something extra… because you asked for it 🤍

This Sleep Workshop wasn’t even on the plan for May… but after a few requests, we’ve added one more date in.

📅 14th May
⏰ 2:00 – 3:30pm
💷 £20
⚠️ Limited spaces

If sleep has been feeling a bit all over the place lately, this is your chance to get some clarity, reassurance and practical tools that actually work in real life.

We’ll be covering everything from safe sleep and co-sleeping, to routines, consistency and how to make it all fit your baby and your lifestyle.

With 26 years experience working as a Health Visitor, I’ll be sharing safe, evidence based advice and support throughout the workshop in a way that feels realistic, supportive and judgement free.

No pressure. No “perfect routine”. Just support, guidance and a plan that works for you.

Pop us a message or head to the website to secure your space 🤍

I caught up with Michelle to chat about our Emergency Paediatric First Aid course 🤍

Have a listen to hear what she really thought after taking part… and why she believes it’s something everyone should do.

This course isn’t just for parents
It’s for anyone who may be in the care of a baby or child… grandparents, family members, childminders, or anyone who wants to feel more confident in an emergency.

Sometimes it’s not until you’re in the room that you realise just how valuable this knowledge is.

Our next class are now available to book, including a session designed especially for parents-to-be.

Send us a message or head to our website to book your space. ❤️
