Babysitter Training Course

Needham Youth Services (Formerly the Needham Youth Commission) offer a Babysitting Training Seminar for new babysitters or for those with limited experience who desire a refresher course. The training is six hours and is offered as a three-day course. Students must be in the sixth grade and at least 11 years old to take the class.

The class will cover all the basics of babysitting: from interviewing for the job to safe tips for play, feeding and more. Basic emergency procedures will be covered, as well as elementary first aid responses. Students will not be certified in first aid techniques.
