Our babysitting certification training can provide you with the skills you need to be an effective babysitter who knows how to keep kids engaged and safe while the parents are away. A certified instructor leads participants ages 11 – 16 in this one-day course by the American Safety and Health Institute. By the end of the day, trainees earn Babysitting Certification and are more qualified than ever to keep up with the children for which they are hired to care.
