Registrations open for Schneck Safe Sitter classes

Signups are underway for this summer’s classes for young babysitters in the area of Schneck Medical Center in Seymour.

The free Safe Sitters classes keep the babysitters up to date on how to keep their charges safe with lessons with a medical basis taught by specially trained team members from Schneck Medical Center.

The sitters will learn life and safety skills to give them the tools to handle emergencies when caring for younger children.

The one-day class is for sitters entering sixth through eighth grades. Registration is required. Classes will be held from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at a variety of locations and they fill up quickly. Each class is limited to 12 students.

The first class is set for June 5th at Schneck Medical Center. Other sites include the Scott County YMCA, Jennings County Public Library and the Washington County Community Learning Center.
