Benefit from over 130 years of Norland know-how

Established in 1892, Norland has a world-class reputation for excellence in early years education. As the first educational establishment to offer childcare training, Norland has been pioneering from the start. Our online courses offer you the opportunity to benefit from over 130 years of Norland know-how.

We are now offering an introductory course to babysitting designed specifically for teenagers and young adults. This free online course created by Norland covers a variety of topics from how to deal with different behaviours with emotion coaching techniques to the laws and rules of babysitting and how to communicate with parents.

This course is the first of a series of courses created to give everyone, everywhere a solid insight into childcare from the comfort of their home.
