BLAST - Babysitter Lessons And Safety Training

As a babysitter, parents trust you with their children’s lives.  Your main responsibilities are to care for a child’s needs and to keep the child safe.  Geared for students ages 11-14, who help care for siblings or babysit to earn money, this class will discuss safety, babysitting basics (diapering, feeding, etc), tips for entertaining kids, appropriate responses to emergency situations, basic first aid, and pediatric CPR.  Each student will receive a student workbook and a certificate upon completion of the course.  Caring for children is a big responsibility; this class will give you the skills and knowledge to be a great babysitter!  Students should bring a sack lunch.
