Suffering a cold sore outbreak when you have a newborn can be anxiety inducing! While they are uncomfortable for us adults when it comes to babies, exposure to the Herpes Simplex Virus can be serious.

It is normal for sultanas to be pooped out as “grapes”. Yep, you read that right.

Spring is here! This means snake season is upon us, and funnel web season is just around the corner.

Many parents believe that baby walkers encourage babies to learn to walk faster. This is actually a myth!

Don't take our word for it... here's what our CPR and first aid attendees say...
"We used CPR Kids for a private in home first aid course for our entire family when bubba was born. It was such a great way to ensure everyone who shares care of the children in our family are confident in an emergency. We highly recommend the CPR Kids course, especially the private in home option for the whole family."

"As my husband and I were leaving the venue - he turned to me and said 'that was the most worthwhile time & amount we've spent' in preparation for our first child. I couldn't agree more. Our instructor was super engaging, knowledgeable, passionate (I could go on), and delivered the information in a way that we have both remembered. I've been recommending this CPR course to everyone I've spoken to since. It's not even a recommendation - it's a must for any parent, at any stage of parenthood. DO IT!"

"I attended the public/community class with my son and daughter in law and their 1st baby. As a retired RN I found it very useful as a refresher, esp. as I hadn't any recent paediatric experience. This is an absolute must class for new parents and for grandparents for the safety of babies and children. Great hands on practical skills and great access to resources. Everyone should know the basics of CPR and First Aid - CPR Kids does this really well."
