Childcare First Aid training in Parramatta

Parramatta's class sizes stay small enough that every student gets hands-on time with a trainer watching their technique, not just a demonstration up front. Sandy runs the practical component and is known for pausing to answer questions rather than rushing to the next topic. Western Sydney workplaces send staff here regularly for CPR renewals; the centre holds a 4.9★ rating.

Childcare First Aid in Parramatta — FAQ

Where is Childcare First Aid training held in Parramatta?

At our Parramatta centre: Suite 103, Level 1, 96 Phillip St, Parramatta NSW 2150. All classes are face-to-face.

How much is Childcare First Aid in Parramatta?

Childcare First Aid from $115. See the live dates above for exact pricing and to book online.

How do I get to the Parramatta centre?

Bring photo ID for sign-in and wear something you don't mind kneeling in — the practical component is hands-on from the first hour. The centre is a level walk from Parramatta's train and bus interchange; paid parking is available on Phillip Street.

Does this certificate work outside the state I train in?

Yes — as a Registered Training Organisation (RTO 91399), the statement of attainment is recognised anywhere in Australia. You'll need a USI before it can be issued, which takes a couple of minutes to set up free at usi.gov.au if you don't have one already.

Is this different from the standard first aid certificate?

It's built on top of it. HLTAID012 includes everything in HLTAID009/010/011 plus content specific to infants and young children — anaphylaxis, asthma, febrile convulsions and the emergencies more common in care settings — which is what ACECQA's National Quality Framework specifically requires for education and care staff.

What scenarios does the child-specific content cover?

Beyond standard CPR and first aid, expect practical work on managing anaphylaxis and asthma episodes in children, recognising febrile convulsions, and responding to the kinds of incidents that come up in early childhood settings specifically.

How often does an educator need to renew this?

As a general pattern, the first aid component is renewed roughly every 3 years and CPR every 12 months — but always check your specific service's policy and ACECQA's current requirements rather than assuming.

Is there pre-course work before the face-to-face day?

Yes — a short online module first, so class time goes almost entirely to hands-on practice rather than theory.

Can you match a competitor's advertised price?

If you find the same unit of competency advertised cheaper by another RTO, submit it through our price match page and we'll do our best to match it with a discount code for booking.
