Babysitting Skills Course
Our Babysitting Skills Course is a popular two-day programme for young people aged 14 and over, designed to build confidence and prepare them to become responsible babysitters.
Open to all young people, the course covers key topics such as communicating with parents, play skills, safety, first aid and promoting babysitting services. Participants also receive access to an online folder of resources.
To support their learning, we have developed a bespoke AQA Unit Award, giving every participant the opportunity to earn a certificate upon successful completion of the course.

"Everything my son does with Krunch has given him a space where he can truly be himself."'
T has really enjoyed attending youth club. He looked forward to it every week and couldn’t wait to tell me what he did. His confidence has improved immensely. Thank you.
I enjoy going to youth club as the youth workers are always up for a chat and I know they’re people I can trust.
My favourite thing to do at youth club is have time to hang out with my friends, play football and have loads of fun.
Mentoring has helped me to keep calm and gain more courage to not be so shy. It’s helped me build up confidence.
Thank you so much for all the work you are both doing, the children have shown such an improvement in the last few weeks since having mentoring.
Thank you for the work you are doing in our school, it is invaluable, and the young people are really benefitting from all the work you are doing with them.
Thank you so much for putting on these activities through the school holidays. My kids love attending and always say how much they have done in just a few hours. It’s great for them to be outside playing with other children and building on their social skills instead of being in front of a screen. The food also looked delicious, and although my kids never usually eat that much salad, they dove straight into the salad bar you provided. Thank you for such a great provision that I can afford!
I have learnt what respect really is and how to keep my own personal boundaries.
Thank you ever so much for the course. I really have learnt a lot, and because I’ve done the course I put it on Facebook and I’ve had three new families ask me to babysit which is now a regular thing! Thank you again for the experience!
This course was a great experience and has definitely made me more confident. I have gained some vital life skills.
Just a quick email to say thank you so much for running this great course. Lauren really enjoyed the day and found it very interesting. Lauren has been working as a babysitter for a while, but I think this course is helping her have confidence in herself and what she has been doing.
I just wanted to say a huge thank you for putting on such a brilliant two day babysitting course! Sarah learnt so much and it has hopefully given her a lot of confidence to look after other people’s children. She also said that the staff were all so lovely and very helpful.

At Krunch we are committed to invest in the next generation and have a wide range of services strategically designed to provide support and help young people grow.

We offer a range of small group sessions designed to support and engage all young people in a safe, inclusive environment. Our activities include a D&D games club, an LGBTQ+ club and our Babysitting Skills Course.

The Junior Volunteer Programme is for young people aged 14 to 17 who want to volunteer with us at Krunch South West.

We have strong, positive relationships with local schools and regularly provide tailored support to pupils.

Our detached and outreach youth work takes place in the community, meeting young people where they are – whether in parks, town centres or local estates.

We run a range of activities and trips during the school Easter and summer holidays, usually funded by the Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) Programme as well as local town and parish councils.

Our youth clubs offer a safe and welcoming space where young people can meet friends, try new activities and build their confidence at their own pace.

Our mentoring focuses on individual need, supporting young people to discover strategies for positive outcomes in their personal and educational lives.
