Safe Sitter Classes
Committed to Training Better Sitters Today ... Better Parents Tomorrow
Safe Sitter is a medically accurate babysitting preparation program designed
for adolescents ages 11 and up. The competency-based, interactive curriculum
was written by a pediatrician and teaches safe and nurturing child care techniques.
The Safe Sitter course includes babysitting as a business, babysitting ethics, how
to care for the choking infant or child, rescue breathing, personal safety, how to
care for children (diapering, feeding, entertaining, etc.) injury prevention, basic
first aid, preventing problem behavior and behavior management.
Teaching methodology includes hands-on-manikin practice, role-playing, games and
discussion. To ensure high quality, a low ratio of student to instructor is required
- no more than 8 students per class.
The class is taught from 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM with 1/2 hour for lunch followed by a short
commencement ceremony for parents at 4:30 PM. The charge is $50. Each student is to
wear comfortable clothing - no short shorts, halter tops or tank tops and bring lunch
in a bag that will keep the food cool.
