First Aid for Families & Nannies

Due to our ongoing commitment to training domestic help in the UAE homes, we have partnered with Back to Basics to offer their award winning courses.

Back to Basics courses were designed with the UAE community in mind – each course takes into account the region’s specifics, and focuses on dangers such as drowning, insects, sunburn etc. It is the only course to be designed with parents and nannies in mind, and all video footage on the course is custom made to this effect. Do not take second best, the Back to Basics courses are what you need!

Back to Basics courses are 6 hours long, broken down into 2 sessions of 3 hours each, with a lunch break in between. We are pleased to offer a complementary lunch to our attendees.
