 Are you, or is someone you know, considering
becoming a babysitter? There are a lot of things to think about. You
want to be responsible, maybe even have your own "business" where
satisfied parents will call you back again and again.
The
number one priority of this class is to give you the information you
need to keep you and the children you care for safe. Babysitting is
not just "watching" the children, but being responsible for their
safety and well being. When you are caring for a child, you are
taking care of a parent's most prized possession. Everything in
their home and your own home can be replaced - everything, that is,
except a child. babysitting is a big responsibility.
This
class is presented by the American Safety and Health Institute
(ASHI), and covers the following topics:
* Starting Your
Business * Communicating With The Parents * Playtime *
Taming The Tots * When A Stranger Calls / Ringing Telephones * Hand
washing * Feeding Infants and Children * Hazards *
