Paediatric & Neonatal Transport Services
Gentle Care for the Smallest Lives
Life Savers Ambulance Services
When it comes to newborns and children, medical transport is not just about speed — it’s about precision, warmth, and specialised care.
Life Savers Ambulance Services provides dedicated Paediatric and Neonatal Transport Services designed to safely move infants and children while maintaining ICU-level care throughout the journey.
From premature newborns to critically ill children, we ensure safe, monitored, and compassionate transfers by road, rail, or air, depending on the child’s condition and distance.
What Are Paediatric & Neonatal Transport Services?
Paediatric and neonatal transport involves the specialised medical transfer of newborns, infants, and children who require continuous monitoring and advanced life support during travel.
Unlike adult transfers, neonatal and paediatric transport requires:
- Specialised equipment sized for infants and children
- Trained neonatal and paediatric medical professionals
- Temperature control and infection safety
- Gentle handling and continuous monitoring
Life Savers Ambulance Services provides dedicated transport solutions tailored to the unique needs of babies and children.
Why Specialised Neonatal & Paediatric Transport Matters
- Because Children Are Not Small Adults: Newborns and children have different physiology, oxygen needs, airway anatomy, and medication requirements.
- Continuity of ICU Care: Our transports act as mobile NICUs and PICUs, ensuring no drop in care standards during transfer.
- Early Intervention Saves Lives: Safe and timely transport to advanced neonatal or paediatric centres can significantly improve outcomes.
- Reduced Stress for Families: Parents can trust that their child is being handled by specialists trained specifically for paediatric and neonatal care.
