I loved the demonstrations. The quiz at the end was a great way to test how much I absorbed from the videos. I have already put together a first aid kit!

So much! You’ll get 13 bite-sized videos (totaling about an hour and 15 minutes) on all of the infant and child safety topics that BabyCenter parents ask about the most: CPR, fevers, choking hazards, when to call the pediatrician, how to administer infants’ medication, babyproofing, water safety, and so much more. Each video also comes with a PDF download of lesson notes (so you don’t have to take them yourself!). And there are even optional quizzes to test how well you’ve retained the information, as well as bonus downloads, like a handy dosage chart of how much medicine to give your baby, based on their weight.
There’s also a private community group within the BabyCenter Community that’s exclusively for parents and caregivers who are taking this course.
Oh, and you’ll get a certificate of completion when you finish the class. (Please note that this is not the same as formal CPR certification – more on this below.)
Expecting parents tell us that they like taking CPR in the second or third trimester, before baby arrives and life gets busier.
That said, it’s never too late to take this course. Accidents can happen at any age, and our course covers CPR and choking rescue maneuvers for babies under 12 months, as well as for children 1 and older. Plus, there’s a lot of great safety info that will help you well into the toddler years and beyond – on topics including fevers, bumps and bruises, and so much more.
Absolutely! Caregivers and babysitters of all types will also benefit from knowing this lifesaving information.
There are a few things: First and foremost, this class is taught by C. Anthoney Lim, M.D., M.S., a dad himself and a top pediatric ER doctor who treats emergencies day in and day out. Because of his unique experiences in the field, he's able to offer the most helpful advice possible on infant and child safety. We've paired him with Anna Jimenez Lyle, a mom who learns alongside you in the course and asks the questions we know come up most often for parents and caregivers.
This course also covers a ton of different topics that go far beyond basic CPR and choking rescue maneuvers (although we cover those, too!). We also get into common illnesses and injuries, when to call the doctor or head to the ER, and more.
Finally, you might be debating whether to take this course or an in-person CPR class. While in-person options certainly have their own benefits, the great thing about this course is that it can be referenced any time throughout your 12 months of access. So you can revisit it when your baby gets a fever, or when your child is starting solid foods and you want to brush up on choking rescue maneuvers. (For this reason, it can also be a nice refresher if you’ve already taken an in-person CPR course.)
While this class does offer a certificate of completion (which can come in handy if you're a babysitter or a nanny), it does not meet OSHA requirements for workplace certification.
The course is quite comprehensive, but if you have a question that isn’t answered, we encourage you to take advantage of our private community group for parents and caregivers enrolled in this course. In addition to utilizing the group for support and seeing what other parents are asking, you can rest assured that BabyCenter editors will be checking back weekly to answer common questions that come up.
You’ll have access to everything within the course for 12 months. We also encourage you to save or print the 17 PDF downloads included in the class, which ensures that you’ll be able to reference all of the helpful information in them for years to come.
We made BabyCenter Courses because we believe that every parent should have access to the best advice possible, from the best pediatric experts possible. Course fees allow us to partner with top healthcare professionals, some of whom typically have months-long waitlists.
We work with these experts to create and medically review all of the information in the course, as well as to package it in a format that’s easy to digest, complete with short videos and PDF downloads that you can re-reference whenever you need them.
Can you find some CPR and safety information for free online? Sure. Will it be as heavily vetted and helpfully compiled as what we have in our course? Doubtful.
We’re positive that you’ll love our courses – and we will happily give your money back if for some reason you’re not satisfied within 30 days of your purchase date.
We encourage you to visit our extended FAQs for more details on this policy, as well as answers to other questions you might have.
We feel strongly about making BabyCenter Courses widely accessible. So each month, we give out a limited number of free courses to parents who couldn’t otherwise afford them. All we ask in return is for an honest review. If you’d like to apply for this program, click here.
