Babysitter Certification Class

We are an Authorized Training Center for The Red Cross and I would like to offer the Babysitter Training Class for 10 teens and young adults who live in the City of Newburgh.

This class teaches the following:
• CPR
• First Aid
• Child Development
• Home safety and child proofing
• How to set up your own business
• Tools needed to negotiate with families pricing and responsibilities.
This class is approximately 6 hours, one full day with a lunch break.

The target age group is 16 – 21.
Each student will receive Red Cross Certification in Babysitting.
Each student will also receive a Health Education Programs Certification Completion Award.
In addition, each student will also receive a workbook with all the training and business forms included.

I have been teaching this program for 12 years and in addition to being a Licensed Trainer for The Red Cross I am also an American Heart Association Certified Instructor affiliated with a Licensed Training Center.
