Video Transcript

"This is how to use a babysitter. Safety is very important when it comes to your children and family. That is why when you hire a babysitter it is very important that you discuss safety, evacuation and the danger zones in the home. For example if there is a fire in the home, the sitter should know the escape route to leave. Also, all sharp objects should be put away where the child cannot reach them and danger zones in the home such as this oven and the stairs. If the child is not old enough to walk up and down the stairs by themselves, the stairs should be blocked off so the child cannot fall or tumble. Also CPR and first aid are very important training for a sitter should know. They can take classes at the local fire station. Also the first aid kit should be in places where the babysitter can reach them. Emergency number should already be posted in case emergency contact people need to be called. My name is Aisha and thank you for watching."
