Hugsie,
I am going through the process myself...but yes you do need child and infant cpr.
I'm amazed things went slowly at the beginning for some. I've known a couple of people that went through Riverside County and it went fairly smooth...for the most part.
I started my orientation Nov. 1, have done initial interview...start my classes in the first week of Jan. certified in CPR/First Aid.
Good luck
