Our classes were offered on Tuesday nights (5-8pm) for like 10 weeks OR all day on Saturdays for 5 weeks.

We chose the Saturdays (9am-4pm with an hr lunch) and used both grandmas and some aunts and uncles as our babysitters so no one got use more than twice. We also had a Saturday that was CPR in the morning and final paperwork etc. in the afternoon. So a total of 6 Saturdays.

Because they require 15 hrs per year here and PRIDE training was 30 hrs, we did not have to do any further hours until our second year. They send us occasional letters letting us know of an upcoming seminar and whether child-care is available upon request etc. and we are allowed to take some online with approval.

Good Luck!
