This CPR & First Aid Training course meets the California State regulations for child care providers. You will practice life-saving mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and care for choking on manikins. First Aid teaches injury prevention and how to respond to emergencies and accidents. This class covers age birth to adult, though emphasis is placed on pediatric ages cared for in child care programs. This is a two-year certification.

When combined with the Preventive Health class, it meets the state licensing requirement of 16 hours to operate a child care program.

Are you thinking of opening your own family child care program? If so, this free event is just for you! At this workshop, an experienced staff member will give an overview of each required step in the licensing process. Our bi-lingual facilitator will cover information on health and safety trainings, application submissions, an orientation and follow-up appointment with Community Care Licensing (CCL), how to assess your budgeting needs and potential expenses, and what to think about as you plan your new business venture. There will also be discussion around teacher-child ratios, yearly schedules and vacation days, and how to establish rates for clients. Many aspiring family child care business owners have lots of questions about setting up home environments as spaces for learning, so our instructor will allow for plenty of Q&A time at the workshop as well. This will also include conversation about the impact on other people living in your home and how to best arrange the business in a way that will accommodate residents and clients alike.

Note: To get a family child care license, you have to go to a Community Care Licensing orientation. Be sure to pre-register and pre-pay the $25 fee to attend by calling CCL at 510-622-2602 or going to www.ccld.ca.gov
