YIPPY! I get to become a tech some time soon!! I'm so excited, today i was at our community baby shower, i was there working for WIC as and talking to mama's about breastfeeding, ect. and there was another booth seat up that had info on car seats i was talking to the lady there about car seats, they had a cosco 3 pt infant seat, a evenflo convertibable, and a graco combo seat... not the best choices by far... but they were just demo seats so i guess that's ok right??? Oh my, anyways she's checked my seats for me before but wasn't able to help me to much b/c she has started having back issues and installing seats i becoming harder, i said something about how i woudl love to become a tech, and she about died when i told her the certification can be as low as $60 depeing on the class, the said she would be getting in touch with the agency and see if they would hire me on as a tech, it would be only 1 time a month for 3 hours, but still i woudl feel better giving out info then they out dated they like to give out, as in harness only to 40lbs, boosters are fine, not much at all about pushing extended rfing, she was shooked when i showed up at the check with my dd rfing she is 2 years old. I'm just very excited, only bad thing is there aren't any classes schedualed yet, in my area execpt for one in champaing IL that's only 45 min from me but the last two days of the class is when i'll be heading for FL for vacation...
