Learn to recognize and prevent shaken baby syndrome, understand infant brain development, and take precautions to prevent SIDS.

Safe Baby, Safe Child may be taken by anyone in any state.  Safe Baby, Safe Child satisfies the Texas, Maryland, Utah, and Minnesota requirements for instruction on Shaken Baby Syndrome. Safe Baby, Safe Child is under review for use in New York. This course is not accepted for SIDS training in North Carolina. Certificates are individualized for states with specific requirements.

Safe Baby, Safe Child fulfills Wisconsin's requirement for Shaken Baby Syndrome training when taken as part of the course work for "Introduction to the Child Care Profession" and/or "Fundamentals of Infant and Toddler Care." Students who use CARE Courses for both of these Wisconsin Registry requirements need to take Safe Baby, Safe Child only one time to meet both Registry requirements. Your certificate will be in your record at CARE Courses the first time you take this course. We will update this website when this course is accepted as a stand-alone course to meet Wisconsin's Shaken Baby Syndrome training requirement.
