What our learners say

Mel • Jul 2026

"Absolutely incredible! A must-do for parents ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is honestly one of the best courses I have ever taken! Hayley and Matt were absolutely amazing throughout. They are both so warm, incredibly patient, and it is so clear that they are top-tier nurses who really know their stuff. They made everyone feel completely at ease. Thank you both so much for everything. I am already recommending this to every single parent I know!"

Hannah • Mar 2026

"I now feel confident that I will be able to provide first aid to my children and children in my family, should they need it. It was extremely informative and the instructor was very personable. It was very well paced and easy to understand."

Shariefa • Apr 2026

"The trainers were particularly easy to engage with and well prepared. Loved the practical part of trying the steps out on the dolls and especially learning how to use the defibrillator. Really enjoyed the session."

Verified Learner • Jan 2026

"Clear, concise and plenty of easy to understand information. Absolutely. I felt safe with Matt who was calm and collected, and knowledgeable. Hayley was super at demonstrating and they both made something so overwhelming, so easy."

Angela • Jan 2026

"CPR, only seen on TV Previously, and was totally different in practice. Hopefully never have to use, but good to know, and good to have slides afterwards."

Frequently Asked Questions

Why Use HealthCore?

Training should be friendly, confidence-building, and practical. Our sessions are hands-on, scenario-based, and taught in plain English. We prioritize practice over slides, using industry-leading simulation equipment (from Laerdal and Practiman) to ensure realism. We keep the atmosphere relaxed and supportive, ensuring every candidate leaves feeling ready to act when it counts. As a nurse-led provider based in the East Midlands, we set a higher standard for safety training. Your course will be delivered exclusively by Registered Healthcare Professionals with current NHS clinical experience. We bridge the gap between theory and reality, giving you the confidence that comes from learning from those who save lives for a living. Don't settle for tick-box training when lives depend on it.

When will I get the exact venue address for my Derby course?

Listings usually name the area as clearly as we can, for example Derby (Pride Park) or Derby (Spondon), so you are not booking blind. Around two weeks before your TinyHearts Baby & Child First Aid date we email the full address, parking notes and anything else you need for arrival, once that day’s venue is locked in.

Who is the TinyHearts Baby & Child First Aid for?

The Tiny Hearts Life-Saving Skills for Parents Derby is perfect for parents, grandparents and carers who want to feel prepared to handle emergencies and first aid with babies and children. It’s also great for anyone looking after a little one - whether you’re expecting your first child or just want to brush up on your skills. The session is relaxed, supportive and hands-on, helping you gain confidence in those important first moments before professional help arrives. We understand that childcare can be tough, so we welcome newborns and children under one.

What should I wear for the session?

We recommend wearing comfortable, loose-fitting clothing (like trousers and a t-shirt) and flat shoes. Our training involves active clinical simulation and practical skills, such as CPR and recovery positions, so you will need to move around freely and kneel on the floor.

Are children welcome at the session?

We understand that arranging childcare can be stressful and that you often want to keep your baby close. Please don't let that stop you from attending TinyHearts - we are more than happy to welcome little ones under the age of one to this session.

Can you deliver TinyHearts Baby & Child First Aid for my club or organisation?

We would be delighted to work with your Derby-based organisation. Please use the “Get a quote” function above to contact us with as much information as possible. All our instructors are healthcare professionals with enhanced criminal records checks.

Is TinyHearts accredited first aid training?

The TinyHearts programme is accredited by the The First Aid Industry Body (FAIB) and more commonly known as First Aid for Parents and Carers. It is also aligned with guidelines from the Resuscitation Council UK (RCUK), The Children's Burns Trust and the UK Sepsis Trust.
