Here I come to save the day
As part of our post-adoption homestudy nine years ago, our agency required us to attend classes in Infant & Child CPR and to submit our certificate of completion for our file. At the time, doing so seemed like just another step in a looooooong series of hurdles to become parents.
And like the other hurdles, I came at it and jumped over it, doing what was required to the best of my ability. Then I left the hurdle behind, never to give it another thought.
Time has passed. My dad had a heart attack. Another family member choked on a morsel. Both incidents had good outcomes.
But what if. What if *I* were called on to save the day. Would I? Could I?
I’m signing up to take Child & Infant CPR through the American Red Cross.
How are your skills? How about the skills of your neighbor, your sitter, your child’s older sibling, or anyone who takes care of your sons and daughters? Could you save the day? Could they?
The American Red Cross is offering Mile High Mamas a 15% discount on this class. This link goes to the Colorado chapter AND the class is offered online, so you have no excuse not to click over and register (unless your skills and those of your child’s caretakers are already tip top). Use the coupon code “BLOGGER” at checkout.
You’re welcome.

It is saying “Error: Invalid Coupon Code.” Is this available for the Adult/Child/Infant CPR & Basic First Aid? Could it be? I would really like to have the first aid as part of the class.
Hi, Angela.
I have notified my contact at the Red Cross. As soon as I hear something, I’ll let you know here in this spot.
Thanks for letting me know!
Did you hear anything back on the link?
I’ve been wanting to take a CPR class and am woefully inadequate in this area.
Angela, I’m told to make sure you’re using all caps for “BLOGGER”.
Let me know if you still have difficulty and I’ll continue to troubleshoot.
Amber, this would be a good idea for you, especially if you continue to participate in risky activities that involve Gs.
What about my other question.
Is this available for the Adult/Child/Infant CPR & Basic First Aid? Could it be? I would really like to have the first aid as part of the class.
I am also asking Angela’s request to see if this discount code could be part of the Adult/Child/Infant CPR & Basic First Aid class. Thank you.
Hi, Angela and Kia.
I have asked my contacts at the Red Cross to respond here to your question. They’ve been very responsive, so I’m sure we’ll hear soon.
Thanks for asking!
