@ Ellington Youth Services

Safe@Home by Safe Sitter® is a 90-minute program designed for students in grades 4-6 to prepare them to be safe when they are home alone.
Safe@Home is designed to enable any adult that enjoys teaching preteens to facilitate an introductory level program to prepare students to care for themselves when parents are away for short periods of time. You do not need to be a Safe Sitter® Instructor to teach Safe@Home.
Students learn how to practice safe habits, how to prevent unsafe situations, and what to do when faced with dangers such as power failures or weather emergencies. Students are also introduced to the Safe Sitter® First Aid Chart and learn a system to help them assess and respond to injuries and illnesses. The program is designed to prepare students for their first steps towards independence.
Each student is required to have a Safe@Home booklet ($15.00/person) and each order includes an electronic completion certificate, Facilitator Guide, and digital presentation. The Facilitator Guide includes a script to follow and includes planned questions to facilitate the discussion.
