Babysafe

This safety class, designed for new and expectant parents, and others who care for infants, is offered in collaboration with Children’s Hospital and Regional Medical Center. We discuss developmental milestones, how to foresee the new safety challenges that arise as babies become more mobile and skilled, and how to let baby explore his world while still keeping him safe from harm.

Topics include:  safety-proofing your home, motor vehicle safety, sleep safety, suffocation prevention, choking prevention and treatment, preventing fires and burns, drowning prevention, poisoning prevention and treatment. Infant CPR and choking rescue are briefly demonstrated and practiced. At the class, you will receive a packet of handouts with invaluable information on all the safety topics we cover.

Class is taught at a Children’s Hospital facility at 70th and Sand Point Way. Class is 3 hours.

This class can be taken before baby's birth, or when baby is young (i.e. anytime under 8 months old). It is recommended that parents leave babies with a babysitter is possible, to allow them to concentrate on class material, but if necessary, they can bring baby along. (We do ask that you take baby out to the hallway if s/he is making lots of happy noises or sad noises.)
