Babysitter Consent and Contact Form
This is from the American Red Cross Infant CPR portion of the 2001 Red Cross First
Aid/CPR/AED program. The text says: "This page may be duplicated by individuals and
contacts for noncommercial purposes."
It's for parents to fill out and leave with the babysitter or designated caregiver. You might want
to add information about the child's allergies ( which food, medications, insects), medications
(prescription, over-the-counter, herbal), medical conditions (Diabetic? Epilepsy? Asthma?), date
of last Tetanus shot, blood type and any recent health problems, surgeries or injuries. You could
also specify an alternate contact or two if you can't be reached.
Point out the child's Medic Alert tag to the babysitter.
Is there a list of important phone numbers next to the phone... vet, family doctor, poison control,
trusted neighbor...?
