Babysitter Training( with CPR / First Aid / Choking certification)

The American Red Cross Babysitter’ s Training with Adult & Pediatric First Aid / CPR / AED – BL course prepares youth ages 11-16 to care for children and infants safely and confidently. It includes hands-on activities videos and discussions to develop essential real-life readiness babysitting skills. The course covers feeding, diapering, picking up and holding children safety and emergency response. We want to prepare participants well for emergencies but CPR can be physically demanding and participants should ideally weigh at least 85-90 pounds to participate. The First Aid / CPR / AED Blended Learning course includes an online portion and an instructor-led classroom skill session. The online portion must be completed prior to attending the in-person training and must be taken on a PC or tablet with a high-speed Internet connection. Allow approximately 2 hours to complete the online portion. Upon successful completion of both the online and in person portions of the course a valid 10- year Babysitter’ s Training digital certification and a valid 2-year digital certificate for Pediatric First Aid / CPR / AED is issued.
