🩹 Online Emergency Response Course
Respond fast, stay calm, and keep children safe with our Online Emergency Course.
At The Au Pair Club, we know medical emergencies can happen at any time. Families want caregivers who know what to do when a child is choking, injured or needs urgent help.
That’s why we created our Emergency Response Course. Learn first aid, respond to choking, burns, cuts, bites and broken bones, and become the calm, confident caregiver families trust.
This course is just R600 (about $30 USD) and takes only 5 hours to complete. You’ll get lifetime access to our Au Pair Academy, a downloadable certificate, and access to our Job Portal to find childcare jobs.
Whether you’re just starting out or want to refresh your knowledge, this course will help you become the trusted caregiver families rely on in an emergency.
