The Voice of West Feliciana Business
Greetings!
The American Red Cross and the Women's Service League are partnering together to offer "The Ultimate Babysitter's Training Course".
As parents often face the tough question of who will become the trusted family babysitter, this may help you to make that decision. The American Red Cross has a history of success with the programs it sponsors. The course will be for students aged 11-15. They will learn responsibilities and qualities of being a good babysitter with skills in first aid and basic care,along with many other areas needed to supervise children, as well as providing certification in CPR and First Aid.
Known as the most complete learning experience, the Ultimate Babysitter's Training Course has been reviewed and supported by the US Consumer Product Safety Commission, Girl Scouts of the USA, Boy Scouts of America, YMCA of the USA, Boys and Girls Clubs and 4-H.
The course is being offered here in West Feliciana Parish which students must attend on the two consecutive days, Monday, December 29th and Tuesday, December 30, from 8:00 am until 5:00 pm at the St. Francisville United Methodist Church Fellowship Hall in St. Francisville. The $50 cost per student will pay for the certification fees for CPR and First Aid.
This event is valuable to parents and students. For more information or to sign up, call Kati Williamson with the Women's Service League of St. Francisville at 225-635-2885. Space is limited so get your student signed up today.
