Safe Sitter Babysitting Course
This course is two courses in one. The 5-hour Safe Sitter curriculum is designed for young adolescents no younger than 11, and is combined with a 3 hour CPR First Aid AED course. CPR Central's Safesitter Babysitting Basics program is the only babysitting course in the region that certifies children with a real CPR card. The same CPR card that is held by many working adults. This class also includes a Safesitter book, a real CPR barrier device, two instructors per class (when staffing allows), water, soda, and a full pizza party lunch.
When people hear "babysitting training", many immediately think of diaper changing, bottle feeding and keeping kids entertained. Yes, caring for infants and children does involve all of these important tasks. However, a well-rounded youth development program with a medical basis, such as Safesitter, focuses on so much more. It presents serious life skills in a fun way!
Our students are not just highly qualified babysitters. They are young professionals with practical life and safety skills. Students learn safe ways to market themselves as qualified babysitters. They learn how to determine if a job is safe and what it means to be responsible for children every time they babysit.

Most importantly, Safesitter students feel more comfortable taking care of their younger siblings while parents are away because they have learned more about responsibility, personal safety and what to do in case of an emergency.
In addition to CPR and choking procedures, this course will also discuss basic first aid, defibrillator use, personal safety for the babysitter, injury prevention, how to care for children (feeding, diapering, etc.), preventing problem behavior, behavior management techniques, ethics, and babysitting as a business.

It is with a heavy heart that we must announce that our Safe Sitter program has been cancelled for 2023.
Since Covid, it has difficult to maintain Safe Sitter instructors and most have moved on to new opportunities. This course could return in 2024 but we won't know until next year.

Until then babysitters 12 and older can take our Pediatric CPR and First Aid course to obtain CPR certification for babysitting, a similar course but without the Safe Sitter babysitting component.
Call (833) 277-2368 to find out more about Pediatric CPR First Aid and to see if any discounts can apply to babysitters 12-15 years old.
