Find Pediatric First Aid and CPR Classes Near You

Pediatric First Aid and CPR classes are essential for child care providers to ensure the safety and well-being of children in their care. Below is a list of individuals and organizations offering Pediatric First Aid, Health & Safety, and Pediatric CPR classes in Ventura County.

Note: Since September 1, 1999, California law requires all training to be EMSA-approved (Emergency Medical Services Authority) or provided by an accredited college or university. Approved programs issue an EMSA sticker on training completion cards, which is mandatory for compliance. Community Care Licensing will check for this sticker on CPR, First Aid, and Health & Safety certification cards to ensure they meet state requirements.

The pediatric CPR and Pediatric first aid training must be from the American Red Cross (ARC), American Heart Association (AHA) or an Emergency Medical Services Authority (EMSA) approved training organization. Potential training organizations can call EMSA @ (916) 322-4336 for application now. ARC & AHC are named in the legislation and do not need addition approval. When you enroll in a course or organize a course, it is suggested by CCHP that you confirm that the instructor is an approved trainer from an approved training organization. You can check the training agency by contracting EMSA (916) 322-4336, or CCHP’S new Health line services which has telephone numbers of approved agencies available. Providers are encouraged to work with their local Resource & Referral programs and community colleges in their search for required trainings.
