Infant Safety Guide
The Infant CPR & Choking Guide
Your quick reference for infant CPR, choking and AED use — written to be kept somewhere you will actually see it.
This is the take-home reference from our infant CPR class, covering the core sequence, the difference between gagging and severe choking, and how to use an AED. It closes with a one-page quick reference designed for your fridge or your phone.

Inside this guide
5 sections. One clear plan.
- 01Baby Is Unresponsive. Start Here.The core sequence — safety, response, help, CPR — plus compression rate, depth and the 30:2 rhythm.
- 02Gagging vs. Severe ChokingJudge by what the baby can do, not how dramatic it sounds. Back blows, chest thrusts, and when to transition to CPR.
- 03Use It as Soon as It ArrivesAED pads, placement and prompts — and why you never wait for the AED before starting CPR.
- 04Infant vs. ChildThis guide covers birth through 12 months. What changes once you are caring for an older sibling.
- 05Your Emergency Quick ReferenceThe one page to keep on your phone or fridge, with a readiness checklist to run before you leave class.
This guide is educational and complements the care you get from your own provider — it does not replace it. Bring anything in it to your next appointment, or talk to one of our nurses.
