The YouTube “vlogger” style presentation brings a youthful, high-energy spirit to the program content and the colorful magazine format of the student book makes learning fun. From getting started with your business, working with parents and children, key safety caregiving and first aid tips, CABS will set you up for babysitting success. Students must be present for the entire class and successfully complete the core learning objectives to receive certification valid for two years.
