- - Babysitting is short term child care and parents today are increasingly concerned for the safety of their children. This program follows three teens as they learn the demands of safety-centered child care. They use a check list to insure they have all the information they need before parents leave. They know how to reach parents or get help in an emergency. They have "what if" plans for various emergencies. They ask about the children's eating patterns, learn how they should handle incoming phone calls, and deal with friends. They know about restrictions and get the lay of the house before starting.
