OSF Healthcare Children's Hospital of Illinois enjoyed visiting the Warren County Public Library District to provide Safe Sitter Essentials education. Safe Sitter Essentials prepares students to be safe when they’re home alone, watching younger siblings, or babysitting. Through fun games, role-playing, and skill practice, students learn ways to stay safe, age-appropriate childcare skills, first aid and choking rescue as well as business and life skills. We are thankful for our partnership with Warren County Public Library and their commitment to providing educational opportunities to the youth of our community!
