Safe Sitter
This nationally recognized and award-winning curriculum teaches 11 to 13 year-olds how to handle emergencies while caring for younger children. During the course, instructors provide students hands-on practice in basic lifesaving techniques so they are prepared to act in a crisis. Instructors also provide tips to help sitters become confident caregivers, including safety and security precautions, such as what to do if a stranger comes to the door and when and how to call for help. Information on child development, age-appropriate activities and the business aspects of babysitting are also provided. To successfully complete the Safe Sitter program, participants have to pass a rigorous practical and written test to show that they have mastered the key concepts and have the skills necessary to handle any emergency.
Cost is $25 per student for the 1 day class and includes lunch.
Gift Certificates are available.
