The Life Safety Pro • Family safety, first aid, CPR & emergency preparedness
Family Safety Resource Center
Simple, parent-friendly safety guides for common childhood emergencies, first aid questions, home safety, and emergency preparedness. Built to help families know what to do now, what to watch for, and when to call 911, Poison Control, or a doctor.
If your child is having trouble breathing, is unconscious, is having a seizure, or you cannot wake them, call 911 right away. If it is a possible poisoning, swallowed battery, swallowed magnet, medication mistake, or chemical exposure and your child is awake and breathing normally, call Poison Control: 1-800-222-1222.
Start Here: Three Simple Safety Steps
You do not need to prepare for everything today. Start with one small safety step, then build from there.
Know who to call
Save 911 for life-threatening emergencies and Poison Control at 1-800-222-1222 for possible poisonings, swallowed batteries, swallowed magnets, medication mistakes, and chemical exposures.
Build a ready first aid kit
Keep supplies organized, labeled, and easy to find at home, in the car, at school, or with your childcare provider.
Practice the skills
Reading helps, but hands-on practice builds confidence. CPR, choking response, bleeding control, and first aid are skills families can learn before an emergency happens.
Build a safer home one step at a time
A good guide helps you know what to do. A well-organized first aid kit helps you act faster when something actually happens. Start with the resource you need, then make sure your home, car, school, or childcare space has the supplies to respond.
First Aid and Emergency Guides for Parents
These quick guides are here to help you take the next right step in a stressful moment. Full printable guides are being built, but the quick steps below can help right now.
Head Injuries & Concussion
Use this when your child bumps their head, falls, or may have a concussion.
- Call 911 or go to the ER: seizure, repeated vomiting, worsening headache, confusion, trouble waking, weakness, slurred speech, or one pupil larger than the other.
- Watch closely: behavior changes, dizziness, headache, nausea, sleepiness, or not acting like themselves.
- Do not: ignore symptoms just because your child did not pass out.
Choking
Use this when a baby or child may have food or an object stuck in their airway.
- Mild choking: coughing, crying, or making sounds — encourage coughing and stay close.
- Severe choking: cannot cough, cry, breathe, or make sound — act right away and have someone call 911.
- Practice matters: choking response is easier to remember when you have practiced the steps in a class.
Button Batteries
Button batteries can cause serious internal injury and should be treated as time-sensitive.
- Call Poison Control now: 1-800-222-1222.
- Do not: wait for symptoms. Serious injury can happen even if the child looks okay.
- Do not: make the child vomit or give food or drink unless Poison Control tells you to.
High-Powered Magnets
Small powerful magnets are different from many other swallowed objects because they can attract through the intestines.
- Get medical guidance quickly: especially if more than one magnet may have been swallowed.
- Call Poison Control: 1-800-222-1222 for immediate guidance.
- Do not: assume everything is fine because your child has no symptoms yet.
Poisoning & Ingestions
Use this for medications, cleaners, detergent pods, plants, chemicals, or unknown substances.
- If awake and breathing normally: call Poison Control at 1-800-222-1222.
- Call 911: if the child collapses, has a seizure, has trouble breathing, or cannot be awakened.
- Have ready: the product or container, amount, time it happened, and your child’s age and weight.
THC / Edibles
Use this if a child may have eaten a cannabis edible, gummy, chocolate, drink, or unknown product.
- Call Poison Control: 1-800-222-1222 for calm, judgment-free guidance.
- Call 911: trouble breathing, extreme sleepiness, seizure, or you cannot wake them.
- Do not: wait to see what happens if you are unsure how much they ate.
Allergic Reactions & Anaphylaxis
Use this for hives, swelling, trouble breathing, vomiting after a known allergen, or a sudden severe reaction.
- Call 911: trouble breathing, swelling of lips, tongue, or throat, repeated vomiting, fainting, or symptoms in more than one body system.
- Use epinephrine: if prescribed and anaphylaxis is suspected.
- Do not: rely on Benadryl alone for a severe allergic reaction.
Burns
Use this for hot liquid, fire, chemical, electrical, or contact burns.
- Cool the burn: use cool running water. Do not use ice.
- Cover: use a clean, dry dressing.
- Get medical help: burns to the face, hands, genitals, large burns, deep burns, electrical burns, chemical burns, or burns in very young children.
Animal Bites
Use this for dog bites, cat bites, scratches, or bites from wild animals.
- Wash: rinse the wound well with soap and running water.
- Control bleeding: apply gentle pressure with clean gauze.
- Call a doctor: puncture wounds, bites to the face or hand, signs of infection, unknown rabies vaccine status, or wild animal bites.
Nosebleeds
Use this when your child has a nosebleed and you need a simple step-by-step plan.
- Sit up and lean forward: do not tilt the head back.
- Pinch the soft part of the nose: hold steady pressure for 10 minutes without checking early.
- Get help: if bleeding is heavy, caused by serious injury, or does not stop after repeated pressure attempts.
Each full guide will include: when to call 911 vs Poison Control vs your doctor, clear steps, what not to do, printable quick cards, and trusted sources.
How to Use These Family Safety Resources
- Start with the situation that matches what happened: head bump, choking, magnets, poisoning, allergic reaction, burn, bite, or nosebleed.
- Use the emergency note first if your child is not breathing normally, cannot be awakened, is having a seizure, or something feels seriously wrong.
- Follow the “do this now” steps in order. Simple steps are easier to remember in a stressful moment.
- Use printables for your fridge, diaper bag, classroom, childcare center, or first aid kit.
- Take a class if you want hands-on practice with CPR, choking, bleeding control, allergic reactions, and first aid basics.
If you ever feel unsure, it is okay to get help. You are not bothering anyone. You are protecting your child.

Take the next small step toward being prepared
You do not have to do everything today. Start with one guide, one checklist, one organized first aid kit, or one CPR and First Aid class.
These resources are for education and preparedness. They do not replace medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or emergency care.
Designed by a Firefighter & Paramedic
First aid kits built by a paramedic, for the parents who never want to be caught unprepared.
Calm, organized, child-focused kits for the everyday emergencies families actually face. Built from real field experience, not a generic supply bag.
You're not failing. The kits are.
Most first aid kits are built for offices or stuffed with filler that has nothing to do with a child. As a paramedic, I have seen how fast a calm afternoon turns into a scary one. You should never have to wonder whether the kit in your hand has what your child actually needs.
Hi, I'm Jeremy. I built this for my family first.
I am a firefighter and paramedic, and I teach pediatric CPR and First Aid. I have run the calls and seen what families actually need in the moments that matter. So I built a kit I would trust for my own kids, organized, practical, and free of the filler that fills most kits.
- Firefighter & Paramedic. Built on real emergency experience.
- Teaches Pediatric CPR & First Aid. A certified instructor who trains caregivers.
- A Dad First. Built for his own family before yours.
