Enrolling in the online Responsible Adult Course was easier to do than expected. 

It surpassed my expectations especially in terms of course content.  I was also learning a lot at my own pace. 

During the course Mariah was very generous in sharing her knowledge. She was there whenever I needed clarification.

I really enjoyed the course. I am 66 years old and have 2 adult children and a Nana of one (so far) .

The course was a very good refresher for me. As you tend to forget a lot over the years 😀.

I have worked and volunteered at schools for years and have now decided to help out at a local daycare.

Thanks to this course I am able to do that. Thanks so much.
