New Tigerlily Accreditation Award: Celebrating Excellence in Child Safety

22 Sep by Tigerlily Training

With the updates to the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) Framework - safety in early years education has gained renewed urgency - and Tigerlily Training is leading the charge. With the introduction of its First Aid Accreditation Award, the UK’s premier provider of paediatric first aid training empowers nurseries and early years settings to formally showcase their commitment to safeguarding and emergency readiness. Recognised with a bespoke plaque - digital and/or physical - this accreditation symbolises an unwavering dedication to the highest standards of child safety.

Recent EYFS reforms underscore the vital need for robust safeguarding and first aid competence in early years settings. Providers are now being held to higher expectations around training delivery, policy clarity, and emergency readiness.

The Tigerlily Accreditation Award responds directly to this landscape by offering:

  • Visible Trust and Reassurance
    Display a clear, authoritative symbol of safety excellence in high-visibility areas -like reception or your website - to provide immediate confidence to parents and visitors.
  • Evidence of Professional Excellence
    Demonstrates that your setting follows rigorous training cycles and governance, bolstering credibility within a competitive sector.

Accreditation Criteria

To earn the accreditation, settings must demonstrate:

  • Exclusive Training Partnership
    First aid training must be delivered solely through Tigerlily Training
  • Regular Drills & Verification
    Conduct six-monthly first aid drills
  • Compliance with EYFS 2025 & HSE Guidance
    All training must align with the new EYFS safeguarding requirements and Health & Safety Executive standards.
  • Ongoing Oversight
    Accredited settings must report staff updates - such as new hires or impending qualification expirations - via Tigerlily’s online portal.

 

What Settings Receive

  • Plaque
    A high‑quality physical or digital accreditation mark for display, signalling exemplary standards of care and preparedness.

This award is a powerful reassurance tool for parents and an internal motivator for teams to prioritise first aid readiness.

With the EYFS reforms taking effect in September 2025 (details of which can be found on Tigerlily’s recent blog: EYFS: What’s Changing and How Tigerlily Training Can Help) - a time when safeguarding expectations are being redefined - this accreditation arrives at a crucial moment. It provides a tangible, proactive response to evolving regulatory standards, supporting settings in both compliance and competitive differentiation.

Moreover, as an early adopter of blended learning in first aid, Tigerlily underscores its leadership and alignment with modern, effective training models.

With its First Aid Accreditation Award, Tigerlily offers early years settings more than recognition - they gain a visible, meaningful, and credible declaration of safety excellence. At a time when trust, safeguarding, and transparency are non-negotiable, this award equips nurseries to demonstrate readiness, reassurance, and professional leadership.
