Red Cross Babysitting Course The Red Cross Babysitting Course covers everything from managing difficult behaviours to essential content on leadership and professional conduct as a babysitter.

Babysitting promises to deepen and enhance the responsibility that older youth feel when caring for younger children. Course content includes: responsible leadership, childhood behaviour, creating safe environments, caring for children, and a large emphasis on first aid skills. Participants will need to bring a doll or stuffed animal with them, and will receive a Babysitting Manual.

The course covers a variety of topics from basic (circulation and breathing emergencies and prevention of disease transmission) to in-depth (sudden medical emergencies and head/spine injuries). 100% attendance is required.

Red Cross Stay Safe! Course Real-world scenarios often call on children to respond to challenges. The Red Cross Stay Safe program teaches applicable and age-appropriate skills while increasing and reinforcing a youth’s capacity to improve their own safety.

Course content includes being responsible and accountable, the importance of following rules, safety skills at home and in the community, how to prepare, recognize and respond to unexpected situations, and first aid skills. Participants will receive a Stay Safe! workbook.

Please read the level descriptions below as a guideline to which level the participant is in. If unsure select “assess” when registering and the swim instructor will assess the participants swim level at their first lesson.

PRESCHOOL LEVELS

SWIMMER LEVELS

Preschool 1 These preschoolers will have fun learning to get in and out of the water. We’ll help them jump into chest deep water. They’ll float and glide on their front and back and learn to get their faces wet and blow bubbles underwater.

Swimmer 1 These beginners will become comfortable jumping into water with and without a lifejacket. They’ll learn to open their eyes, exhale, and hold their breath underwater. They’ll work on floats, glides, and kicking through the water on their front and back.

Preschool 2 These preschoolers learn to jump into chest deep water by themselves, and get in and out wearing a lifejacket. They’ll submerge and exhale underwater. Wearing a lifejacket they’ll glide on their front and back.

Swimmer 2 These advanced beginners will jump into deeper water and learn to be comfortable falling sideways into the water wearing a lifejacket. They’ll be able to support themselves at the surface without an aid, learn whip kick, swim 10m on their front and back, and be introduced to flutter kick interval training 4 x 5m.

Preschool 3 These youngsters will try both jumping and a sideways entry into deep water while wearing a lifejacket. They’ll recover objects from the bottom in waist-deep water. They’ll work on kicking and gliding through the water on their front and back.

Swimmer 3 These junior swimmers will dive and do in-water front somersaults and handstands. They’ll work on 15m of front crawl, back crawl, and 10m of whip kick. Flutter kick interval training increases to 4 x 15m.

Preschool 4 Advanced preschoolers will learn to do solo jumps into deeper water and get out by themselves. They’ll do sideways entries and open their eyes underwater. They’ll master a short swim on their front wearing a lifejacket and gliding and kicking on their side.

Swimmer 4 These intermediate swimmers will swim 5m underwater and lengths of front, back crawl, whip kick, and breaststroke arms with breathing. Their new bag of tricks includes the completion of the Canadian Swim to Survive® Standard.

They’ll cap it all off with front crawl sprints over 25m and 4 x 25m front or back crawl interval training.

Preschool 5 These youngsters get more adventuresome with a forward roll entry wearing a lifejacket and treading water for 10 sec.

They’ll work on front and back crawl swims for 5m, interval training, and get a giggle out of whip kick.

Swimmer 5 These swimmers will master shallow dives, cannonball entries, eggbeater kicks, and in-water backward somersaults.

They’ll refine their front and back crawl over 50m swims of each, and breaststroke over 25m. Then they’ll pick up the pace in 25m sprints and two interval training bouts: 4 x 50m front or back crawl and 4 x 15m breaststroke.

Swimmer 6 These advanced swimmers will rise to the challenge of sophisticated aquatic skills including stride entries, compact jumps, and lifesaving kicks like eggbeater and scissor kick.

They’ll develop strength and power in head-up breast stroke sprints over 25m. They’ll easily swim lengths of front crawl, back crawl, and breaststroke; and they’ll complain about the 300m workout.
