American Red Cross Babysitter’s Training

Class Description

American Red Cross Certification Program (Ages 11–16) Give your teen the skills, confidence, and credentials to babysit safely and professionally. This full-day program combines the American Red Cross Babysitter’s Training with Adult & Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED (Blended Learning format) so students leave fully prepared to prevent emergencies — and respond if one happens. How the Blended Learning Format Works The CPR/First Aid/AED portion is completed in two parts: Step 1 – Online Learning (Completed Before Class) After registration, parents will receive an email with a personalized link to complete the American Red Cross online learning modules. These modules must be completed before the in-person class date. Reminder emails will be sent to ensure all participants complete the online portion on time. Step 2 – In-Person Skills Session During class, students will practice and demonstrate hands-on skills including CPR, AED use, choking response, and first aid techniques under instructor supervision. This format allows us to maximize class time for hands-on learning and real-life scenarios.
