Red Cross Babysitting Course-Virtual: $45:
This Red Cross Virtual Course is designed for youth ages 11-14 who want to learn how to take care of younger children. Whether it's to make a little extra money setting up a babysitting business, watching younger siblings or getting a jump on what it takes to work at a summer camp, this course will teach participants the first aid and leadership skills they need to be successful.
Virtual Learning Format: In order for all program content and skills to be taught, youth will be provided with blended learning activities when they receive their book that need to be completed BEFORE their scheduled instructor led Zoom session. A family first aid session will also be held prior to the Zoom session as some skills need an extra set of hands and pair of eyes to make sure it's done correctly. This is also a great opportunity for parents to learn a few basic first aid skills too!
Red Cross Home Alone-Stay Safe Course-Virtual: $40:
This Red Cross Virtual Course is designed for youth ages 9-12 who want to learn the skills to stay home alone safely.
Virtual Learning Format: In order for all program content and skills to be taught, youth will be provided with blended learning activities when they receive their book that need to be completed BEFORE their scheduled instructor led Zoom session. A family first aid session will also be held prior to the Zoom session as some skills need an extra set of hands and pair of eyes to make sure it's done correctly. This is also a great opportunity for parents to learn a few basic first aid skills too! Please actively support your child in their learning. It's important that not only are they confident in their skills but that you are too!
Thank you to all of our amazing Medic Camp families for your support of our virtual camp this summer! We had almost 200 future doctors and medical professionals join us and more than half attended multiple weeks! Our virtual format provided new opportunities to use technology, think outside the box and reach kids outside of our local geographical area. We had Medics join us from across Canada, the US, Mexico and even Cuba! After 7 weeks of delivering our virtual camp and requests from parents to offer more, we're pleased to present our programming schedule for Fall-Winter 2020-21 which includes the Red Cross babysitting and home alone courses also in the virtual format.

Who Are The Medics?
NEW - Medics LIT
Medics LIT are our leaders in training. These bright energetic youth already have demonstrated leadership skills at school or in their community and want to take leadership to the next level. They will participate in a Red Cross Standard First Aid & CPR-C certification course as part of their Medics camp experience. They will have fun with like minded peers as they develop leadership skills that will help them be successful in both a camp setting and in life.
