Safe Sitter Babysitting Classes

The Safe Sitter babysitting class is designed to teach students ages 11-13 how to be safe when caring for younger children. Even if they are not babysitting outside the home, the skills they will learn in this course are very informative and useful. Students will learn how to run babysitting as a business, childcare skills, CPR and choking rescue, as well as basic first aid.
