[quote=nannydebsays][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It always depends on what you want. Some people are happy with a 'warm body' and a smile. [b]Others want someone who would instantly know what to do in the most extreme emergency[/b]. [/quote] Call 911? Otherwise you are talking about either a paramedic/firefighter or emergency room physician.[/quote] "Warm bodies" may or may not speak decent English, may or may not know infant/child CPR and First Aid, may or may not have a clue about illness in infants and toddlers. I would consider calling 911 the bare minimum response to an extreme emergency. If a child is choking on something and stops breathing, the "warm body" can call 911 and wait until someone arrives. Someone with CPR/First Aid training will know how to try to help the child until paramedics/firefighters arrive. That might mean the difference between severe brain damage due to oxygen deprivation and a traumatized child who will recover fully.[/quote]
