Important Information
for Parents and Employers

Our Babysitting Certificate of Completion and Wallet Card recognizes a student's commitment to gain the knowledge and skills needed to handle the challenges of babysitting. It is not a degree or license or accreditation.

Continuing Education

An online class cannot cover hands-on topics such as emergency first aid and CPR. We recommend that students continue their education by supplementing this course with a Basic First Aid and pediatric CPR class.

 

Q My yearly pass is ending. I really love your Encyclopedia and all the class notes. Is there any way to extend my membership?
A

Yes! You can renew your pass. You can test yourself again and get a new certificate and wallet card. It's a good idea to do this every year. There's always new safety, security and chidcare tips to learn. To renew, just click here to get started. It's the same low price: $17.50 per year.

   
Q What is your refund policy?
A

We have the best Babysitting Certificate course in the world, so our no risk guarantee is simply the best.

Our course and product are guaranteed. No fine print. No arguments. We mean exactly what we say. Your satisfaction is GUARANTEED.

If you are not completely satisfied with our Babysitting Course, our Business Kit or our service for any reason, you may return your course materials, Certificate and Kit and we will refund you your full purchase price.

 
Q How old must I be to take the class and babysit?
A We have no age restriction on taking our course. We recommend our class for 11-17 year olds, and we've had students older who've enjoyed our course.

The legal age to babysit is different in every city. Please ask your police department or child protective services for this information and decide how old you would like to be when you take this class.
 
Q My registration codes don't work.
A

If you are using AOL, please be sure to replace your screen name with the number we give you. You cannot enter the class using your screen name.

Also, you must register for the class before you can begin classes. Please go to the register button on any page of our site and click on it. Fill in the registration information with the name of the student who is taking the class. This allows us to send you your certificate, and it activates your pass to the class.

 
Q I am clicking on "Start Class" and my registration number doesn't work?
A

You must register for the class before you can begin classes. Please go to the register button on any page of our site and click on it. Fill in the registration information. This allows us to send you your certificate, and it activates your pass to the class.

 
Q I am clicking on "Register" and my registration number doesn't work?
A

Did you cut and paste your information from an e-mail program? If yes, place your cursor to the right side of the last number or letter of your verification code and press "delete" on your keyboard. This will get rid of any invisible characters generated by your email program. Now hit "enter".

 
Q When I fill out the credit card information, whose name should I use? Mine or the student's?
A

Please input the name of the cardholder when you sign up. You will have an opportunity to change that name to the student's name at registration.

 
Q On my browser, when I click START CLASS or REGISTER the entry box says Username and Passcode. Where do I fill in the Registration number and Verification Code I got from your e-mail?
A

Please input your registration number where it says "Username". Please input your verification code where it says "Passcode". Unfortunately, these are standard on browsers and we have no way of changing these boxes to match our system. We're sorry for any confusion.

 
Q I paid, but I clicked past the page that had my entry codes on it when I signed up. Then I didn't get an e-mail back. What happened? What do I do next?
A

If there's a typo in your e-mail address, or your e-mail box is full, we won't be able to send you a passcode. Please contact us here at Customer Service via e-mail by clicking here. We ask for you to write us via e-mail so we'll have a correct address for you. Give us your first and last name, how you signed up (credit or mail). We'll look up your record and re-send you the information.

 
Q Help! I signed up and I didn't get a passcode!
A

Usually the problem is either a typo in your email address file, or your email file is full so we can't send you your passcode, or the mail box has a parental control on it that doesn't allow mail from babysittingclass.com Please send an email to: customerservice@babysittingclass.com. Include your phone number so we can contact you if we have a question.

 
Q What is the order of the class?
A

Please go through classes 1-6 in order, beginning with #1, Childcare Basics, and ending with 6, Beyond Babysitting. Be sure to take the quizzes. They're fun, and they'll help you later when you take the test.

 
Q Do I have to look at all the classes in one sitting?
A

No, students can leave each class and come back to it whenever their schedule allows. Quiz scores in the lessons are not stored or tallied.

 
Q How do students take the test?
A

After a student has finished all six classes, we invite them to go to the Babysitters Class Menu and click on the "Test" button. Students have one year from registration to review each topic and take the test as many times as they need to pass.

 
Q What if students miss questions on the quizzes and test?
A

Our quizzes and test are stress free because if a student misses a question, they get immediate feedback. If a student doesn't pass the final test, they also get immediate feedback about what they need to study. Students have up to a year to retake the test and pass it.

 
Q

I loved the class. Do you offer first aid or CPR training that complements this course?

A

Yes! We are an affiliate of Safety Campus.com. They have an excellent online First Aid and CPR certification course that complements our class! You can do your CPR coursework online and then go into a testing center to do the "dummy" breathing part of the class. For more information, click here.

 
Q How do students get their personalized certificate and business kit?
A

We ask each student to REGISTER at the beginning. That tells us the student's name and mailing address. As soon as a student has taken the test and passed it, our program automatically alerts Customer Service to send them their personalized Babysitter's Certificate and Business Kit to the name and address given to us upon class registration. Students usually receive their kit within a week after passing their test.

In the rare event that a student does not receive their kit, or there is a problem of any kind, we ask them to send an email that contains their first and last name and registration information to customerservice@babysittingclass.com.

 
Q What browser should students use for the best experience?
A

This class and the Babysitter's Business Kit was designed with the input of over 200 babysitters and built by the e-training professionals at Cybercat Consulting. It runs best using Internet Explorer. For best results, students will need: Internet access with a 28.8 or faster modem. Internet Explorer 5.0 and above - available FREE for download - or AOL 5.0 and above.

Note: Using AOL? For best results download that free copy of Internet Explorer. Students will probably have to resize their computer screen size to 1024 X 760 so that you can see all the content.

 
Q What is your Babysitting Encyclopedia all about? Can you give me a sample list of topics you cover?
A

Yes! From A-Z, our online Babysitting Encyclopedia is all about hands on situations that a Babysitter may face. In each article, a babysitter describes the topic and gives suggestions about what to do to handle that situation.

Your pass to the class gives you access to the encyclopedia and our Live Help for a year from your date of registration. We add new articles all the time. Here is the list of Article Titles and Topics as of 12-30-03.
