Safe Sitter® Babysitter Training
As a nationally registered Safe Sitter® teaching site, Crouse Spirit of Women for Kids now offers a comprehensive babysitter training program for adolescents in grades 6-8.
Program goals include handling emergencies when caring for younger children and being equally equipped with the tools needed to safely stay home alone.
To graduate from the Crouse Hospital Safe Sitter® course and receive a completion card, students must demonstrate the practical skills needed for safe sitting and master the key concepts of life and safety skills.
The cost for this all-day program is $75, which includes:
- Learning to prevent infant and child injuries by understanding how, why and where injuries can happen
- Infant and child-choking rescue and CPR
- Age-appropriate child care
- How to prevent problem behavior
- How to organize a teen-run babysitting business
- Issues of online and mobile phone safety
