ASCIA recommends that once an allergen is introduced, you keep offering it at least once a week so it stays part of your baby’s regular diet 🥜👶

Why? Regular exposure helps their body keep tolerating the food. If it’s introduced and then dropped from their diet, there’s a chance an allergy could develop ⚠️

My hack 💡 one jar of finely ground tree nuts in the fridge. I often add peanuts, and mix in chia seeds, h**p seeds, or whatever I have at the time. Nutritious, easy, and one less thing to think about 🙌

Ensure the meal is fine, with no whole nuts in it. 😊

Fever is one of the most common presentations to emergency, and a common discussion point in our courses.

Soooo many myths and misconceptions associated with fevers 🌡️ The biggest one I hear? “Their temp is 40… will they overheat or have a seizure?”

The number on the thermometer doesn’t tell us how unwell a child is. A child with 40.2°C isn’t necessarily sicker than a child with 38.2°C.

Fever is the body’s normal response to fighting infection. And while febrile convulsions can happen, they aren’t caused by how high the number gets.

What we look at instead 👇
🫁 Breathing: is it fast, noisy or laboured?
💧 Hydration: are they drinking, and are they still having wet nappies?
👀 Appearance: are they alert and interacting, or floppy and hard to wake?

Seek medical help if your child:
• is under 3 months with a temperature of 38°C or more
• is having trouble breathing
• is drowsy, floppy or hard to wake
• has a rash that doesn’t fade when pressed
• is refusing fluids or having far fewer wet nappies
• has a seizure
• or if you’re worried. Trust your gut ❤️

No shade to the robots. Great for meal plans, terrible at back blows. 😂

In an emergency you get your own two hands and whatever they already know. So give them something to know.

🤕 🤕 🤕 A head injury is any knock, bump or blow to the head, big or small. Most are mild, and you can care for your child at home. ❤️‍🩹

Moderate or severe head injuries are less common in children but can be serious.
Symptoms often show straight away, but can take a few hours to develop. If you’re worried, see a doctor or health professional.

🚨Call an Ambulance (000) immediately if you’re child-
〰️ injured their head at high speed or from a high fall
〰️ loses consciousness (passes out)
〰️ keeps vomiting and cannot stop
〰️ has severe concussion symptoms that do not get better after a few hours.

Always err on the side of caution with head injuries. We discuss this in all our first aid courses too. 🤕

Rural Infant & Child First Aid Education Program designed specifically for parents and caregivers living in regional Victoria with support from Rabobank Australia
〰️ Coming up-

📍 Mildura
📍 Nagambie
📍 Leongatha
📍 Camperdown (sold out)

Rural families face unique challenges when emergencies occur. Ambulances can take longer to arrive, distances to tertiary hospitals are greater, and access to evidence-based health education is often limited. Cost and location are the two biggest barriers preventing rural parents from accessing quality first aid education, we have partnered with Rabobank Australia to close that gap.
Every parent deserves access to life-saving education, regardless of their postcode.
Strictly limited spots.
