The final meeting for Babysitting was held on 4/17.  The girls did a great job throughout the classes.  They learned how to make nutritious snacks, provide first aid and games to play with kids.  They also created resume portfolios and baby sitting kits, which will be entered in the fair.

Babysittings Beginnings

Babysitting Beginnings met tonight for the 3rd time!  Tonight, they learned about first aid and safety from Stacey G.  They practiced the Heimlich Maneuver and learned about how to bandage wounds.  They also reviewed the items needed to make a first-aid kit and how to treat many common injuries including burns and animal bites.  Everyone did a great job and special thanks to Stacey!
