Learn how to be a ‘Safe Sitter’ this summer with Carmel Fire Department

The Carmel Fire Department will host several Safe Sitter courses throughout the summer. Safe Sitter prepares students in grades 6 to 8 to be safe when they’re home alone, watching younger siblings, or babysitting.

There will be five Safe Sitter sessions. Each one will be held from noon to 5:30 p.m. on July 18, July 25, Aug. 8, Aug. 22, and Sept. 12. The cost to attend is $65 per student.

For sign-up more information, call Keith Freer at (317) 571-4245.

There will be changes to the class for the safety of participants. These include:

  • Temp check when entering, hand sanitizers present, distancing – seating spaced out and limited attendance to half as normal
  • CPR practice will not include giving breaths to the manikins
  • Masks at this time will be optional
