So...You Want To Be a Babysitter?

Well, there’s more to babysitting than watching and playing with children. 

When parents leave, YOU’RE the BOSS... the head honcho ... the person responsible for keeping kids comfortable and safe...

... And, 9 out of 10 times, you can probably do it blindfolded, but it’s that one time when you turn your back... or you don’t think ahead ... or you panic in an unfamiliar situation that can cost you everything.

Because, if something goes wrong, you may never be asked to babysit again... you could lose your part-time money maker ...  and even worse ... end up with a hurt kid on your hands.

How bad is that?

That’s why, regardless of what you already know about kids, and how many kids you’ve looked after before, a babysitting training program will give you the knowledge and confidence to handle anything.

Plus, you’ll get some terrific tips on how to get babysitting jobs and how to make a good impression when you meet parents for the first time.

(You’ll be able to get jobs over other babysitters hands down!)

• The confidence  to care for kids of all ages and deal with difficult situations

• The capability to remain calm and handle emergency situations.
• And, the ability to administer basic first aid. 

 

What’s the Difference Between the
Home Study Program and
In-class Training?

Not much!  What you learn in class and in the home study program is exactly the same. In fact, for some it’s even better, because you can start immediately, and learn at your own pace from your own computer.

Plus, all home study participants get a personal instructor who they can contact by email seven days a week. They are available to answer questions, give advice, and mark your assignments. 

Oh yes, you will have to complete a short test to show you’ve understand what you’ve been taught – but no biggie!

Basically, we understand that not every teen can participate in weekend courses, some live miles away from training centers, some play sports and others are busy with chores and family fun.

And, we know that some boys would rather not try diapering in front of a cute girl, right?

So a home study program is a perfect alternative.  Plus, your parents can see exactly what you’re working on and step in when extra help is needed too.

So it’s your choice!

The most important thing is that with Kidproof you’ll learn the right techniques, from a child and family safety expert. We are world-famous for teaching teens to predict future dangerous situations and what to do if an emergency happens.

You see; if you know what you’re doing, you’ll keep calm – and when you’re calm the kids you’re babysitting will be calm too.
