American Red Cross self-paced online training for certification in Babysitting skills, safety tips, and more.

This American Red Cross online training is to provide Girl Scouts with the skills necessary to safely give care. Topics include how to provide care for infants and children, how to stay safe, what to do in an emergency, how to choose age-appropriate activities, and how to recognize and handle a variety of behaviors.

At the end of the training, Cadette, Senior, and Ambassador girls will be prepared to start their first babysitting business. Babysitting certification is valid for two years.

Complete this certification in three parts:
1. Register here to choose your online session date.
2. On the start date of your online session, you will be emailed instructions on how to complete the self-paced online training through the American Red Cross website.
Note: Registrants must have their own separate email addresses to create an account with American Red Cross.
3. This course can take between 4 - 6 hours to complete. Registrants have two weeks to complete the course.

Once you have completed the course and the class session has closed, you will receive an email directly from American Red Cross within 5-7 business days with your certificate. If registrants do not complete the course by the end date and/or do not successfully pass the course, no refunds will be issued, and registrants will need to register and complete the entire training again to receive a certificate.

 

If you have any questions or issues regarding your American Red Cross account, contact training@girlscoutsla.org

 

Refund Policy:

  • Registration is paid in full at time of registering.
  • Cancellations prior to close of registration are subject to a 10% administration fee.
  • All cancellations after close of registration: no refund.
  • The council will provide a refund if an activity is cancelled due to insufficient registrations, acts of nature, or other reasons beyond its control.
  • Please allow 2 weeks to process refunds. Refund will be credited back to original form of payment.
