The course is well structured and contains lots of resources. It could use an additional section on different age ranges and how to adapt different babysitting styles based on them.

By Valeria Menéndez on 7/10/2021

Very helpful and informative! I liked it a lot and it’s easy to take because each lesson is like 5 minutes, so it doesn’t feel boring.

By Neda Halabi on 1/13/2021

This course was okay, but we thought it was going to have the CPR and First Aid, as well as a real babysitting certificate. We would have not bought it if we knew it didn't come with that.

By Tejas Saraiya on 6/26/2020

I really like this course because I couldn't possibly get this much information on being a babysitter anywhere else. I really appreciate the fact that this is on Udemy. Wow! It's a lot of information that I will definitely use when I become a babysitter. Thanks!

By Mia Heinrich on 5/21/2020

This is a very good class so far. I am glad he mentioned age requirements and made me look up my state's minimum age requirements for babysitting. He talks clear and gives me all the facts.

By Beth Margaritis on 3/15/2020

I’ve tried online courses before but nothing was as amazing as this one! I love how it’s videos instead of writing, it’s really helpful and I’m going to try the suggestions once I complete the training I’m doing in summer.
