Becoming a successful babysitter

The behaviour and misbehaviour of children

Handling Emergencies

Caring for a sick or injured child

Prevention and basic First Aid

Students

Students of this course must be at least 12 years old or turning 12 within the calendar year. The program enables the students to demonstrate their capabilities and maturity by completing the course under the responsible direction of the instructor. The Canada Safety Council recommends that the Babysitter Training Course be supplemented with First Aid and CPR training.

Students must attend all sessions and establish a passing grade of 75 per cent on the final examination in order to receive their certificate.
