No. That would be considered child endangerment. An eight year old is not mature enough to be responsible for a younger child. The eight year old needs an adult caretaker herself.

Will a 13 year old babysit a 8 year old?

Well, yes. They are five years apart and just so long as the 13-year-old is responsible, there's no reason they can't babysit an 8-year-old. It does depend on the parents, the kid, and the babysitter though. Each case is different. There is no way that makes sense!

Can an 11 year old babysit siblings?

That totally depends upon the child. The best babysitter I ever used was eleven years old. She was certified in infant and child first aid. Also she was certified in CPR for infants and toddlers. Beyond that she was patient and loving.
