A first babysitting job is a real responsibility: someone else’s child, someone else’s home, and decisions that matter. Our full-day Babysitting Safety & First Aid course prepares young sitters to care for infants, toddlers and school-aged children safely and professionally — from feeding and diapering to behaviour guidance, injury prevention, emergency procedures and introductory first aid.
This is First Aid Responder’s own program with original curriculum and materials. Eight hours cover both child care skills and safety skills — including the “business” side: communicating with parents, preparing for assignments and presenting yourself professionally. Participants receive a Certificate of Completion.
Participants receive a First Aid Responder Certificate of Completion. This is our own youth program — it is not a workplace first aid certification and is not affiliated with any other national training agency’s babysitting program.
