An important course for the beginning babysitter, this program teaches the basic skills of child-care, first-aid and safety in the home. Students must be 12 years old by March 31, 2021. The Babysitter's Training Manual must be picked up at the MHRD office by Friday, February 19th.

Participants will need a pen, paper and stuffed animal or doll to practice with.

An email containing the Zoom link will be sent to parents/guardians in advance of the scheduled classes. These emails are not to be shared with anyone other than the registered participant. Youth will be placed in a waiting room until they are admitted to the training session by the instructor. Only pre-registered students will be admitted to the classes.

Participants must attend 100% of the program in order to be eligible to write the exam. We ask that an adult be on site with the learner – they do not need to be present in the video, but they should be available in the space if help is needed.
