Babysitter's
Handbook ($10.60 inc. tax)
The Babysitter's Handbook can help you learn about the
responsibilities involved in being a good babysitter. Use the handbook when
taking the Babysitter's Training Course and then take it with you whenever you
baby sit. The handbook contains information and fun activities to help you learn
about:
Safety and Safe Play— Should they really play with that toy? When is it
okay to play outside? Learn how to prevent injuries by watching out for
safety-related problems and fixing them.
Leadership— How do you have fun with the kids and still stay in control?
Find out the best ways to negotiate, mediate, and encourage positive behavior.
Basic Care— Feeding and diaper changing can be, well, kind of messy.
Learn how to handle these situations, and other babysitting basics, like a pro!
Professionalism— What should you ask during a babysitting interview? What
do you need to know to have a safe and responsible babysitting experience? How
should you act when you are "on the job"? We'll teach you how to put your best
babysitter food forward in all situations.
First Aid— Every babysitter needs to know what to do if an accident
happens. Get straight-forward advice on how to manage everything from scrapes
and bruises to life-threatening emergencies.
First Aid Fast ($5.30 inc. tax)
First Aid Fast is an illustrated quick-reference guide that
provides first aid essentials. Well organized and easy to use, it provides
step-by-step guidance for the following emergencies: breathing emergencies,
cardiac emergencies, injuries to muscles, bones, and joints; poisonings; and
much more! Sized to fit in your purse or briefcase, glove compartment, desk
drawer, backpack, and, of course, your first aid kit. Indispensable for parents,
grandparents, family and friends.
First Aid and Emergency Preparedness Quick Reference Guide ($10.60 inc. tax)
The Quick Reference Guide is a spiral-bound version of First Aid Fast.
Quick reference tabs, easy-to-read type, simple instructions. It really should
be called "First Aid Fast."
