Mini First Aid was founded in January 2014 by mum of six, Kate Ball, with a mission to deliver high-quality baby and child first aid classes to parents and carers. Since then, the business has grown rapidly and now trains over 2,000 people every week across the UK in basic and life-saving first aid.
Our multi award-winning classes are designed to be relaxed, accessible, and confidence-boosting - giving you the knowledge and skills to act in a medical emergency. We offer sessions for the whole family, including parents, grandparents, carers, and even children as young as three.
In 2021, Kate and her husband Matt appeared on Dragons’ Den and secured investment from Sara Davies MBE. Since then, Mini First Aid has continued to expand, including the development of our own range of brilliant first aid products, now stocked in major retailers.
Mini First Aid classes are CPD-accredited, and we are proud members of the First Aid Industry Body. We also provide a comprehensive range of certified first aid courses for those needing formal qualifications. As the UK’s leading provider of paediatric first aid, we are passionate about empowering families and professionals alike with essential first aid skills.
I’m Beth, mum to two children, James (7) and Ruth (4). I have worked in nurseries, schools, and children’s social care for years, so have always had first aid training, but I am delighted that I’ve now completed all my training with Mini First Aid and I get the opportunity to pass this on to the parents and carers of Bristol. I really believe that one of the most important things you can do when looking after little people is to know how to care for them if something goes wrong, and that’s why I love meeting you and sharing my knowledge and enthusiasm for first aid with you. All my sessions are relaxed and informal, while offering you the chance to practice skills and get a better understanding of how to keep those you care most about safe.
I’m Karina, I am delighted to join Mini First Aid Bristol! I have worked as a paediatric nurse for over 25 years gaining a great foundation of knowledge and practical skills that can be used in emergency situations. Also, as a proud parent to two teenage children, I have had to manage a number of medical emergencies along the way. I feel passionate about sharing the knowledge I have gained, with both adults and children, to teach essential life skills needed to feel confident when accidents happen.
