Frankfort, IL – Frankfort Park District is set to empower young individuals with essential childcare skills through its Babysitter Training program. The sessions, scheduled for April 15 and 17, aim to educate 11 to 15-year-olds in various aspects of babysitting, from safety to setting up a babysitting business.
