Safe Sitter®

Safe SitterAccepting a baby-sitting job is a big responsibility. Baby sitters need to be prepared for anything. That’s where Safe Sitter® can help. Safe Sitter® teaches adolescent baby sitters how to handle crises, how to keep their charges secure and how to nurture and guide young children. In the process, these 11- to 14-year-olds become confident, responsible and compassionate teens.

Safe Sitter® teaches baby sitters how to:

  • Care for a nosebleed and other basic first aid skills
  • Change diapers
  • Talk to a 911 dispatcher
  • Screen baby-sitting jobs to decide which ones to accept and which ones to refuse
  • Learn Rescue Skills for CPR and Choking Infant/Child
  • And much more!
