Instructor Linda Freeman (right) welcomed Officers Cameron and Kelley--during pizza time to meet all the students and discuss 911 calls . This will be an annual instructing course for students age 11-15 in Brookfield (and surrounding towns). Students certified may (with parents permission) have their names, address and phone, in a (stored) directory at the library for parents to peruse and call Baby Sitters! The Friends of the Library sponsored half ($20.00) of the $40.00 registration fee for this course for each student. 13 students have successfully completed the AMC Baby-Sitter Training. Only Brookfield walk-in parents will have access to the Directory at the Merrick Public Library.
Students practice feeding, diaper changing and dressing with 'practice babes' supplied by the American Red Cross....
American Red Cross Instructor, Linda Freeman (formerly of Brookfield!) encourages a moment of humor with the student participants of the mandatory 6 hour course for certification. Students attended two sessions on Wed. Feb. 4 from 4-7 and Thurs. Feb. 5, 4-7 to complete the certification process.
