In this episode of the Blaze Trails Podcast, India, Iona, and Rehna are diving into a must-know topic for every outdoor-loving parent—first aid essentials. From personal experiences to practical tips, we’re talking about what you really need in your first aid kit and why it’s so important to be prepared when out exploring with little ones.
India also chats with Sammy from Happy Hearts, a former registered nurse who now runs first aid training specifically for parents. She shares her journey into first aid education and breaks down the key skills every parent should know, plus what to pack in your first aid kit for outdoor adventures.
We also get into the nitty-gritty of dealing with ticks—how to remove them properly, why it matters, and how to stay calm if your child gets one (yep, Sammy shares her own real-life experience with this!). Plus, we talk about emergency situations—when to seek help, how to stay prepared, and how tools like the What3Words app can be a lifesaver when you’re out in nature.
This episode is packed with practical tips and reassurance to help you feel more confident when heading outdoors with your little ones. So, grab your headphones, maybe even check your first aid kit while you listen, and join us for this essential conversation!
