Town sets more babysitting workshops

Remember the Huntington Town babysitting workshops we told you about last month? (If not, click here.)

More have been scheduled at the Dix Hills, Greenlawn, Melville and Centerport fire departments. You can call 351-3171 for starting dates, times and exact locations.

They are open to young teenagers and will run for four consecutive weeks, one hour session each week. Participants who complete the course will receive a certificate of completion and their name will be placed on a course completion roster.

A parent or guardian seeking the services of a babysitter can either call Project EXCEL or the participating Fire Department for the name of a local youth that completed the course. At that time, an interview can be set up to discuss family childcare information, emergency numbers, household rules, etc.
