UAHT offers safe sitter course

HOPE – The University of Arkansas Hope-Texarkana will host a Safe Sitter® course on Wednesday, January 3 from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

Safe Sitter® is for young teens in grades 6-8 who are ready to learn the skills they need to care for themselves and watch younger children. The course also teaches young teens life and business skills, so that they know how to be prepared, be responsible, and be considerate whether they are babysitting or doing odd jobs for family, friends, or neighbors.

The cost for the course is $60, and lunch will be provided. Class size is limited to eight students. Parents or guardians should arrive at 2:00 for the graduation ceremony.
