Why Your Daycare Needs an AED
Children, staff, parents, visitors — your center serves thousands daily. Cardiac emergencies don't check age at the door. State laws increasingly require AEDs in daycares.

Any Staff Member Can Respond

One-button operation with real-time CPR coaching. Staff, coaches, custodians, office staff — anyone can use it with zero training. The Rescue Ready light confirms it's always operational.
