Babysitting Basics

Welcome to "Babysitting Basics," a transformative three-day program designed to empower teens aged 12-18 with the essential skills and confidence needed to excel as babysitters. In partnership with Greenville Technical College, our dynamic program offers hands-on learning and interactive sessions that go beyond the basics, preparing participants to handle any situation with poise and preparedness.

The final day of the program is dedicated to CPR and First Aid certification, providing them with a valuable credential recognized by healthcare professionals and families alike. By the end of the program, they'll emerge as confident and reliable babysitters, ready to make a difference in the lives of children and families.
