Basic Education for Safe Travel (B.E.S.T.) Training

Minnesota law requires all licensed day care and foster care providers to complete a child passenger safety class in order to transport children. The Child and Restraint Systems (C.A.R.S.) training is transitioning to B.E.S.T. Carver County Public Health offers the B.E.S.T. training to Carver County providers. Contact Carver County Public Health with any questions, or request the B.E.S.T. training.
