Pearce
Community Center is offering the Safe Sitter® program, a six-week babysitting
class, beginning Thursday, March 5, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. for ages 11 to 17.
The class
will develop knowledge of first aid, rescue skills, and behavior management
techniques as well as provide the experience to handle medical, behavioral, or
household emergencies. Participants will also learn how to feed and diaper
small children and create their own personalized toolkit of activities, crafts,
and games to take with them to babysitting jobs. The class will conclude with
hands-on experience babysitting at Pearce during Parent’s Night Out on Friday, April
10, mentored by trained staff.
The cost
of the class is $30 for Foundation members; $40 for members; and $50 for
