Ontario Child Care First Aid for Providers
Every second counts in an emergency—especially when caring for children. As a child care provider, early childhood educator (ECE), or daycare operator, you play a vital role in keeping children safe. But are you fully prepared to respond to a medical emergency?
In Ontario, Intermediate/Standard First Aid with CPR-C and AED certification is a legal requirement for child care providers under the Child Care and Early Years Act (CCEYA). At First Aid 4U, we provide WSIB-approved and CSA-compliant training designed specifically for child care settings, ensuring you have the confidence and skills to handle any emergency—big or small.
