We go to the local fire dept. Four hours covers both 1st aid and CPR. It's a course specifically designed for the average citizen, daycare providers, supervisor at job sites etc. Very easy to understand and done in a friendly and casual way.

The Red Cross ones around here are VERY intense, VERY detailed and VERY long and designed mainly for nurses/EMT's who are re-certifying. Super serious etc.

While it IS a serious subject, our local firemen make it fun and entertaining with their stories and humor, while getting the important info across.

I know other fire departments do the same thing. Maybe call your local station?
