Certifiably Sittable
Now that you’ve changed dipes with a bud and been a mother’s helper, hook up with the pros—the American Red Cross or Safe Sitters. After a couple sessions, you’ll receive an official certificate to let folks know you’re prepped for anything that might pop up—be it a scraped knee or a power outage. Log on to www.redcross.org or safesitter.org to find a location near you.
