Baby Sitter Training

Interested in becoming a babysitter? If you're ages 11 through 15 years old, head over to  as members of the American Red Cross teach an 8 hour course to help you develop your skills in leadership, safety, safe play, basic care, first aid and professionalism. 

There is a $75 fee for this 8-hour class, but just know it will pay for itself once you start babysitting!
