How the Children's Trainer Works
The same proven air-bladder mechanism as the adult trainers: sized and adapted for children ages 5–11, and built to follow AHA, ARC, and ERC guidelines.
01
Deliver Back Blows
Use the included back slap pad to practise correct force and hand placement for back blows — safely, without risk.
02
Perform Abdominal Thrust
Apply firm inward-and-upward pressure between the navel and ribcage. The internal air bladder activates when technique is correct.
03
The Plug Ejects. See the Result
When technique is correct, the foam plug ejects through the translucent airway, simulating airway clearance and confirming proper form.

01
Adjustable Shoulder Straps
Velcro straps allow fast adjustments and easy switching between users during class.
02
Airway Chamber & Foam Plug
Pre-loaded foam plug simulates a blocked airway. Ejects when thrusts are performed correctly.
03
Internal Air Bladder
Calibrated pressure threshold which only activates at the correct force and hand position, preventing false positives.
04
Navel Marker
Guides correct hand placement to ensure effective abdominal thrusts every time.

Frequently Asked Questions - Children's Yellow Trainer
Trusted & Used By Organisations Across Ireland
Product Overview
Built for the Children
in Your Care.
The Act+Fast Children's Yellow Trainer fills a critical gap in paediatric first aid training. The child choking response protocol is not the same as the adult technique - the hand position, the force applied, and the physical proportions are all different. Training with an adult-sized vest teaches the wrong muscle memory for a child casualty.
The Children's Yellow Trainer is specifically scaled for children aged 5 to 11 years. It is worn by a real child or child-sized trainee, enabling the first aider to practise the correct paediatric technique on an appropriately proportioned body - building the genuine hands-on experience needed to respond confidently in a real emergency involving a child.
Children are at significantly higher risk of choking than adults. Any organisation responsible for children aged 5 to 11 — schools, creches, childcare settings, paediatric wards — should have the Children's Yellow Trainer as standard equipment.
Used in over 70 countries worldwide and CE marked for the European market, the Children's Yellow Trainer is the paediatric training standard for first aid organisations, healthcare systems, and educational settings globally.
01
Child-Proportioned Design
Scaled specifically for ages 5 to 11. The correct proportions mean the first aider practises with their hands in exactly the right position for a real child casualty — not an approximation.
02
Full Paediatric Protocol
The abdominal thrust pad and rear back-slap target enable practice of the complete paediatric choking response — both elements of the Irish Red Cross, ARC, and AHA guidelines for child casualties.
03
CE Marked & Internationally Validated
Fully CE marked for the European market and validated against international paediatric first aid protocols. The only properly certified children's anti-choking training vest available in Ireland.
04
Reusable · Durable · Portable
Built to withstand repeated sessions in school and childcare training environments. Lightweight and compact — ready to use anywhere, anytime, with no specialist setup required.
