Safe Sitter Babysitting Classes

About the Course:

The Safe Sitter® course prepares students in grades 6-8 to be safe when they’re home alone, watching younger siblings, or babysitting. The class is filled with fun activities, videos, games, and role-playing exercises. Students even get to use CPR manikins to practice choking rescue and CPR!

Who Should Attend This Course:

Babysitting is a big responsibility! This course is designed to help prepare middle school aged students (typically 6th-8th grade) to be familiar with some of the things they will encounter as a babysitter. Students must have completed 5th grade to attend the Safe Sitter babysitting course.

Course Content:

Our Safe Sitter® Babysitting Classes Cover the Following Course Content:

  • Safety Skills: Students learn how to prevent unsafe situations and what to do when faced with dangers such as power failures or weather emergencies.
  • Child Care Skills: Students learn tips to manage behavior that will help them stay in control of themselves and the children in their care. Students also learn the ages and stages of child development, as well as practice diapering.
  • First Aid & Rescue Skills: Students will learn skills such as choking rescue.  Students also learn a system to help them assess and respond to injuries and illnesses.
  • Life & Business Skills: The ability to screen jobs, discuss fees, and greet employers will set students up for success now and in the future. Students practice these skills through various role play.

What Do I Need To Know About This Course:

Please read the following before registering your child for the Safe Sitter Essentials Course:

  • A great deal of information is presented in a short period of time during the Safe Sitter® course. We want every child to succeed in the course, and we will work with you to make alternate plans if your child has difficulty keeping up. Please contact us BEFORE REGISTERING if there is anything about your child that we should know or if your child needs special accommodations so we can be sure we are the right facility for your child’s training.

  • This course covers some topics which children may be sensitive to including first aid topics where small amounts of blood may be shown on video and how to handle children throwing up.

  • There is no age that students are automatically ready to babysit. Babysitting is a big responsibility and all tweens and teens need maturity and confidence to take on that responsibility. They also need an interest in caring for children, as well as appropriate training. Finally, it is important that parents of a prospective babysitter agree that their child is ready to take on this responsibility, and be available to support them as needed.
  • Please read and complete the Safe Sitter student registration form. You will need to upload this completed form during your registration. If you prefer to pay in-person, please contact us to schedule a time to drop off the registration form/payment at our office in Longwood/Lake Mary, FL.

IMPORTANT: You must complete the online registration and payment to reserve a seat for your child in this class. We have to pre-purchase materials for the class for each student so we do not accept walk-ins. Additionally, there are no refunds for this course once registered for any reason.
