Better Sitters Today, Better Parents Tomorrow.
by Amy Kingery, Public Relations & Communication
Coordinator, Seven Rivers Regional Medical Centero

When Sadie Taylor, 12, first heard about Safe Sitter� from her
cousin, Sadie asked her mom to sign her up for the next class.
Besides just starting to babysit for families at church, Sadie was
also starting to babysit her younger siblings � all four of them!
Sadie said she �liked knowing what I was doing.�

A year later, Sadie showed her mom that she had learned the
lessons well when she saved her younger brother, Cade, who
was choking on pennies. Sadie and her siblings were playing
in the living room while their mother was close by in the
kitchen. Unknown to all of them, Mia, Sadie's two year old
sister, had found two pennies, which she gave to Cade, seven
months.

�I heard him make a weird noise � one I'd never heard before.
My mom heard it too and we saw his face was changing color.
My mom looked in his mouth and saw a penny, which she
removed with her fingers. Then we realized he was still
choking. I used the skills I learned in class. He started crying
when the second penny came up in his mouth and then my
mom took him back from me.�
