I've heard that some babysitters take classes at local hospitals or community centers. What do they teach you? Are they worth it? Does it matter where you go to take them? (link)

yes.those classes help tremendously.I took one last summer through a local hospital, and I learned alot of valuable skills. it was beyond first aid and telling kids to stay away from matches.They taught us everything from diaper changing to CPR on babies; tricks and games to get kids to cooperate,etc.Also,went into alot of detail and specifics; what to do and not to do. And at the end,we got an official badge that said we were trained babysitters. Parents really like that you take these courses,because it shows you are prepared to handle anything and everything babysittng will throw your way(expect the unexpected)
good luck
