Babysitting Course

A Canadian Red Cross Program

You’re an adolescent 11 years old or older and you’ve decided to become a babysitter; are you prepared for this important responsibility?  Do you know how to:

• Feed a baby or change a diaper?
• Prepare a simple meal?
• Play games with children of all ages?
• Prevent injuries and keep children safe?
• Handle an emergency if one happens?

A good babysitter knows all of these things and more.  Learning them can be easy and fun with the Red Cross Babysitting Course.

As personal protective equipment (PPE) is required and evaluated in this program a convenient keychain that contains a face shield and gloves has been included in the course cost and will be issued to each participant along with their required text, the Babysitter’s Manual.

Course Duration:                      8 hours
