Rated 5 out of 5 stars on Trustpilot 18 September 2023 I attended a 2-hour Mini First Aid course, the first in St Andrews, Fife & Forth Valley. Lynsay's class was relaxed and packed full of useful information. However, I felt that the way Lynsay explained each area made the info easy to retain. I've done other first aid courses before and this is the most comprehensive and helpful one yet, with lots of opportunities to practice your techniques on dummies. Fully stocked first aid kits were available to buy at responsible prices, which I did as I knew I would forget to restock once home. Highly recommend this class.

Rated 5 stars on Trustpilot Excellent paediatric emergency first aid course today with Lynsay from Mini First Aid Fife and Forth Valley.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars Mini First Aid Course Today me, my wife and our 5.5 month old baby attended a course led by Lyndsay (in Dunfermline) and we were very impressed by the content of the course, but even more by the instructor who clearly takes pride in the quality of her work and was very knowledgeable, kind and patient with the course delegates. We left with confidence of how we would intervene in aiding our little one for a wide array of potential medical scenarios that hopefully will never arise. As a consequence, this information and Lyndsay's kind instruction will be invaluable for us as we raise our wee man. Many thanks to Mini First Aid, and especially out wonderful instructor. We can wholeheartedly recommend this course, and we will be looking to book onto some of their other courses in the not too distant future. G, C and M Date of experience: March 22, 2025

Rated 5 out of 5 stars Excellent Class and Teacher Both of my children have attended the Early Years First Aid class at different times and both loved it and learned a lot. I had booked my son in for a class yesterday. Despite my son being the only person to turn up, Lynsay was happy to go ahead with the class. She made us feel very welcome and was very attentive to my son and taught him in a fun and engaging way. Thank you to Lynsay for your generosity and we will be back to do the next level when the children are ready. Date of experience: February 14, 2025

Rated 5 out of 5 stars Emergency pediatric 1st aid course Attended at Salvation Army Hall Hayfield Rd Kirkcaldy Lynsay was our instructor. I was renewing 1st aid cert as a registered childminder. Lynsay was great she put everyone at ease especially the younger attendees (lm 59).She detailed the schedule for the day and it ran like like clockwork finishing bang on time. The course was informative and the both the practical and theory were great. There were plenty opportunities for breaks/coffee etc and everyone was fully engaged for the entirety of the day . I would have no hesitation in recommending the course and the instructor 👍 Date of experience: March 29, 2025

My husband and I attended the mini first aid course in Kirkcaldy and both feel so much more confident as a result!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars Highly Recommend Thank you so much Lynsay. We loved today's class. Everything worked well and was aligned with the age group brackets, level of understanding. Simple. Effective, interactive and you did well in being in tune with my Sons needs to maximise his learning potential. Amazing class with an heartfelt story as to the origins and reason behind the development of mini first aid. That really provoked my thoughts and highlighted the importance of having the skills and knowledge we learned today. While also giving my Son confidence in being able to assist someone should he ever need to. Loved it. Date of experience: February 13, 2025

Rated 5 out of 5 stars Great for grandparents I attended a class at the weekend run by Lynsay Allan in Dunfermline, Fife. I am about to start looking after my 11 month old grandson for a day or two a week soon and was looking to remind myself how to deal with emergencies should they occur. I found the class to be excellent - it was well structured, informative, and moved along at pace. There was a chance to to ask questions and to try out the best practice. The workbook has all of the key points listed and the products for sale at the end of the class are all reasonably priced / very handy to have in the house. I would strongly recommend this 2 hour investment for grandparents who may think they know all of this stuff - but like me, probably don't... Date of experience: September 07, 2024

I attended the baby & child first aid class today in Dalgety Bay. It was very relaxed & had lots of useful information. Was great to be able to try out some techniques on the dummys too. Especially seeing how hard you need to give the back blows to a baby! I stocked up on my first aid kits at the end of class too 😊 24/04/2024

I attended the Baby and Child class with Claire on 31st Oct. The session was very good and as a new granny I found it useful. I have attended first aid courses previously and knew some of the basics but this was a great refresher course with up to date advice. Being able to practice on the baby and child mannequins helped to increase my confidence. Claire was very friendly and we all felt relaxed and comfortable asking questions.

I did a blended pediatric first aid course in St Andrews on the 30th of November with Lynsay. I did 6 hours online and 6 hours in the class on the Saturday. The facilities were fantastic with a bonus of free parking. Lynsay is very organised and had everything set up by the time I arrived. She is friendly and very knowledgeable. This was by far the best first aid course that I’ve ever been on. She made it fun and interesting and was very hands on going through everything throughly. She really is good at what she does. Nice little bonus was that coffee and tea was offered as well as a lovely sweet treat. I cannot recommend Lynsay enough. Thank you so much Lynsay for everything. It was such a pleasure to have met you. 5th December 2024

A massive thank you to Lynsay for her Paediatric First Aid Course I attended at the weekend. This course was delivered to a very high standard, and Lynsay was incredibly professional and communicated the training in a way that suited everyone. Information was broken down into manageable segments which really helped me, and the practical element was completed in a fun but informative way. Thank you again Lynsay 12th March 2024

Rated 5 out of 5 stars Trustpilot review 5 Feb 2023 Excellent mini course for first time mum to be! I attended the child first aid course with Lynsay from Fife as I wanted to be prepared as a first time mum to be. The class was brilliant, delivered exceptionally well in an easy to understand format with plenty of time to practice on the dummies for CPR and choking. Lynsay made sure we left with all of the knowledge we needed to feel confident in delivering first aid. A lovely lady, with a very warm and welcoming nature and I’m sure I’ll be back again to take part in other classes as our little one grows. Excellent follow up email with more links and information. Thank you Lynsay you are an excellent teacher! Date of experience: 04 February 2023

We all thoroughly enjoyed the day. And feel so much more confident. Many thanks ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd July 2025 Emergency Paediatric First Aid

Forth Valley Mini First Aid Rated 5 stars on Trustpilot I attended the mini first aid course with my two daughters. My aim was to get useful information that would help me in my new granny role. The 2hour session had a great amount of very relevant first aid delivered in a friendly manner by Lynsay. This included a booklet, hands on sessions with baby and child first aid mannequins. I left feeling much more confident if I ever find myself having to use the training. Although there was a lot covered Lynsay emailed additional resource links and encouraged you to get in touch if anything needed clarified. There was also the chance purchase some useful items. I would recommend this mini first aid course. Date of experience: 23 November 2023

I seen a post on Facebook and I thought I would give it a try and I would definitely recommend it, it has made me feel confident about keeping my baby safe and I have learned a lot of new information , something like this is so important and so handy to know especially in an emergency. Thank you so much 💕

This class was super informative and left me feeling confident that I’ll be able to support my daughter if an emergency was to arise! I was nervous going into class especially upon realising I was the only one attending solo but Claire had the class feeling totally relaxed and a safe space! I felt able to speak up and ask questions and Claire got us all involved without that pressure feeling of feeling forced to speak up and answer questions! I also really liked that there was the option to purchase products at end without these being pushed on you! Really enjoyed that the class was responding to situations for babies or children. 5th August 2025 Would recommend to others, thank you!

I attended a baby and child first aid course with Lynsay and it was just what I was looking for. All the things I had been worrying about not knowing how to deal with were covered and I came away feeling so much more informed and able to deal with issues that might occur with my baby. Lynsay was great and made the environment relaxed despite the scary nature of some topics which was fab as I think a relaxed environment is much easier to learn in. Added bonus was that I could take my wee boy with me which is ideal if you might be lacking in childcare options! My wee one was made welcome and he just went about his business - playing with the dummies when he wasn't sleeping 🙈😂. Being able to bring him with me was such a nice option to have as I think I would have struggled to attend otherwise. All in all, an excellent class for the price that all parents/grandparents/carers would benefit from! Highly recommend! Facebook recommendation

Lynsay put us instantly at ease and was very informative and patient with everyone, the session was highly interactive and Lynsay even offered to hold babies where needed so everyone to try out techniques. The session flew by and at the end we felt much more assured about how to give first aid not only to babies but to children (1-18 years).

I recently attended the Mini First Aid Fife Course in Dalgety Bay at the end of October. I’ve always worried about things, managed to deal with it but then when my first baby came along my anxiety sky rocketed. Her whole life depends on me and that alone made me 10x more anxious. This first aid course really put my mind at ease and in a very relaxed, yet professional manner, Lynsay was able to provide me with tools and techniques (should I need them) regarding baby and tots first aid. Cannot recommend this course enough, and I also purchased the mini first aid kit for my changing bag as well! Thank you Lynsay. Danielle x 03/11/2023

My partner and I had a great experience at baby and child first aid yesterday. Lynsay was extremely friendly, knowledgeable and supportive throughout the experience. We were a little nervous to attend but as soon as we arrived she put us at ease. We learned so much but not overwhelmingly so which was fantastic. We definitely left feeling more confident which was the whole aim. Thank you, I recommend anyone who has kids, is having them or looking after them to come on this course. You won’t be disappointed 4th August 2024

My daughter attend the Early Years class and it was great. Super informative and delivered really well for little children to remember. My daughter loved it. I'd highly recommend it. It's so important for them to have these tools. They learnt about plasters and bandages, recovery position, 999, what to do about a head trauma and the signs to look out for, and more. Lynsay was really lovely too. Great with the kids 🙂 Facebook recommendation

I attended my 2 hour first aid session last night and couldn’t recommend it enough. It gave just the right amount of information to leave me feeling confident should I need to use first aid. Lynsay delivered everything so clearly and ensured we all kept up in a gentle and informative way. As an expectant mum I felt it really important for me to know the basics, and I’m really glad I attended. 27th April 2023

Rated 5 out of 5 stars Trustpilot Review Brilliant course We received the baby and child first aid training course at home yesterday delivered by Lynsay who covers Fife and Forth Valley. As a parent who has had to administer CPR in the past, I was a really anxious ahead of the course however Lynsay kept me re-assured through check in’s ahead of the day so I knew exactly what to expect. I found each of the topics so insightful and I really responded to how Lynsay delivered the content. She kept checking in with me to make sure I was ok which made me feel really safe.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars Baby and Child First Aid - Fife My husband and I attended a Baby and Child First Aid class in Fife. Lynsay, the course leader delivered a brilliant session that has positively impacted on our confidence levels in dealing with any of the topics covered. The opportunity to practise CPR and choking treatment was invaluable. The class was really welcoming and friendly and we both felt that we could ask any questions we had. It was also great to be able to bring our 4 month old baby along. This meant that we could both attend the class which we felt important. As a new Mum, Lynsay made me feel comfortable to move around with the baby, and to feed, change and allow the baby to squeal during the class. She was even happy to help out with the babies. As well as new and improved knowledge and skills, we were also able purchase some items to help us deliver effective first aid at home. However, there was no pressure put on us to purchase these. We would recommend this class to other parents and carers. Thank you Lynsay. Date of experience: June 27, 2024
