Participants will learn how to care for a choking infant or child, basic first aid, personal safety for the babysitter, injury prevention, how to care for children, preventing problem behavior, behavior management, ethics, and babysitting as a business. The program includes a babysitting manual and a completion card. Participants should bring a baby-sized doll to class.
