Even though we all hope we will never have to use the skills this presentation teaches, it provides you with the skills in an easy to understand format and gives you the confidence to know what to do in an emergency

Being an RN myself and a future mom I was glad to see other RN's try to prevent accidents and tragedies ahead of time. Its easy and fun to watch with all too important info being delivered. I highly recommend.

What a fantastic video! From the viewpoint of a firefighter, and a father...this is a video that all new parents should watch before they even consider leaving the hospital. The producers cover material that is important for new parents to review. Honestly, in my job, you would be amazed at what goofy things people do and oddly enough...what they DON'T know. This video puts it all in perspective in an easy to watch and understand format. An excellent video for new parents....or in some cases....'experienced' parents, also!

The video was highly informative in dealing with most emergencies concerning a child. This was a great way to learn what to expect when something goes wrong with a child without panicing and wasting valuable time. The guidelines given are the latest associated with the American Heart Association for use with an infant under duress. I would highly recommend this video for anyone with an infant or a child who would like to gain time and control in an emergency. This was everything I expected.

$20 for this? Let me help you avoid spending any money at all on this poor quality, terribly-produced and ultimately very surface approach to life-saving techniques. Over half of the content is so obvious that I was practically offended by the amount of time devoted to it (strap your children properly into their carseats, etc.) versus the quick, passing stabs at First Aid and CPR. On the upside, the DVD does at least repeatedly advocate taking a course, which I will do. And I would suggest you do it as well, but hopefully before you waste your own time and money on this movie first. Or invest in another, hopefully better, one.

This video was painful to watch! So boring and incredibly thin on info. It is mostly just two women talking at the camera. There is zero first aid information. The video simply consists or these women telling the camera that people should baby-proof their houses, and then some demonstrations of CPR and choking response. That part (the demonstrations) was fine, but I expected a little more than that. I suppose I thought "safety" meant more than just basic advice about baby-proofing. I also bought a pediatric CPR and first aid book, and that is much more helpful. The visuals provided in the video are not strong enough to make it any more useful than just reading a book.
