This Training Manual was developed to provide up to date
information regarding research in SIDS and the best practices for reducing
the risk of SIDS in the child care setting. The target audiences for the
Training Manual include:
- Health and Safety trainers of front line child care providers
- Persons who train the trainers of front line child care providers
- Individuals from Healthy Child Care America (HCCA) and Healthy Start Programs, Head Start and
Title V programs.
- Individuals from Child Care Resource and Referral agencies
- Individuals from child care regulatory and monitoring agencies
- Child Care Health consultants
- SIDS Alliance staff and volunteers.
The Training Manual format allows trainers flexibility regarding the
time they have to present the materials and the funds available to them in
producing materials to distribute to child care providers. There is a
PowerPoint presentation, handouts, and transparencies (overheads). As much
as possible, we have included information and resources that are relevant.
There is a breakdown of budget costs for reproducing the manual for
workshops in the Training Prep segment.
We hope this Training Manual will be an invaluable tool for trainers and
we appreciate any feedback regarding the materials. An evaluation form for
the manual has been included in the front pocket with a self-addressed
envelope. Please contact Hanan Kallash, Assistant Program
Coordinator, [email protected] or
at 410.415.6628 for more information about the training manual.
