The Montville Recreation Department is sponsoring SAFESITTER BABYSITTING CLASSES for Grades 6th-8th.
Safe Sitter® prepares students in Grades 6-8 to be safe when they’re home alone, watching younger siblings, or babysitting. Students learn life-saving skills such as how to rescue someone who’s choking, and helpful information like what to do if there’s severe weather. The lessons are filled with fun activities and role-playing exercises. GIRL SCOUTS will receive a badge if full course is completed.
