Babysitting Course
Ages: 11 through 15
Location: Jaffray Fire Hall, Jaffray BC
Day/Time: April 29, 2017 - 9:00 am start
Fee: $75 per person
The Babysitting course, refreshed and revised, now has a greater emphasis on First Aid skills. The Canadian Red Cross Babysitting
course covers everything from managing difficult behaviours to essential content on leadership and professional conduct as a
babysitter. Babysitting promises to deepen and enhance the responsibility that older youth feel when caring for younger children. This updated curriculum, complete with new science, also provides improved learning when it comes to giving the appropriate care in the event of an emergency.
Please contact First Aid Instructor/ Youth Leader Melainie Hatt at 250-919-6403 OR [email protected] to register and secure your seat.
