Purpose of our organization:  Safe Sitter is a medically accurate instructional program designed for 11-13 year olds. It is one of the few programs we are able to offer pre-teens. It is an opportunity to increase self-esteem through teaching life-saving techniques and promoting early nurturing skills. Because Safe Sitter's immediate goal is to reduce the numbers of accidental and preventable deaths among children being cared for by babysitters, the course stresses how to handle emergencies - major and minor. The course is intensive and interactive.
