Babysitting
    Training Course

    At Coast2Coast, we offer the Canadian Red Cross Babysitting course. This course has been revised and updated to focus more specifically on caring for younger children regularly and during emergency situations. It is a Red Cross-approved course that emphasizes First Aid and CPR skills for infants and children.

    This Babysitting course will cover topics such as managing problematic behaviours, professionally conducting yourself as a babysitter, and learning how to run a small business. Our Babysitting program promises to deepen and enhance the responsibility that older youth feel when caring for younger children. At Coast2Coast, we believe this amazing babysitting course is for any pre-teen or teen looking to care for children of all ages.

    Saika's teaching style is exceptional. She has a remarkable ability to break down complex concepts into easily understandable segments, making it accessible for everyone, regardless of their prior knowledge. Her enthusiasm for the subject matter is contagious, and it kept the entire group engaged throughout the session.

    Overall, I left the training feeling empowered and equipped with the knowledge to handle first aid situations effectively. If you're looking for a comprehensive and enjoyable first aid training experience, I highly recommend Saika. Thank you, Saika, for your dedication and for equipping us with such vital skills!

    I received my CPR certificate at the Richmond Hill location. The class was amazing. Mitra was the best teacher. She explained everything in detail and made the class easy to understand.

    Scott F was the best! He really engaged our group well and made the content fun to learn (not easy to do!). I could have done another full day with him. I feel prepared and confident to handle a first aid emergency if I need to, and inspired to continue my education in this space. Thank you Scott!
