I think the legal age limit to baby sit is 14 or 15 and i don't think its to long probably over night you won't get in much trouble but its suggested 14 or 15+ because they have more knowledge on what to do and how, NOT saying that a 12 year old isn't capable of doing tasks That's what the state thinks
most people think 13 but i think it would be ok for a 12 year old to mind a 1_3 year old for £10 an hour for a while
around £4 an hour.
around 1-2 kids
u have 2 be 20 years old or more
In Iowa, there is no specific age requirement stated in state law for a child to babysit their siblings. It is generally recommended that a child be mature enough to handle the responsibility of caring for younger siblings, and the decision is left to the discretion of the parent or guardian.
10 years is very young to babysit. If it is for a short time, or for your own siblings, it is old enough. Otherwise, most parents would be comfortable with a babysitter 12 or older.
Not a good idea. A 13 year old is not considered old enough to be responsible. Most places say a 12 or 13 year old can babysit for a few hours during the day, but certainly not for several days by themselves.
Monkeys will have new siblings each year for a number of years. It is hard to say an exact number. Twelve to fifteen is highly possible.
i bet its 12. i am 12 and all of my friends babysit or have been babysitting. everybody i offer to babysit thinks i am too young, even close family members and neighbors I've known for years think so. i really need the money!!!! what i should do?
Im not sure, but in Australia i think its 14 years, I am not sure how many kids a 14yr old can babysit though. Hope that was helpful.
you have to be 12 years old in order to babysit
11 is okay for younger siblings but 12/13 is the age for actually babysitting other children in your neighborhood or community. I HIGHLY recommend waiting until 11 1/2 to start babysitting younger siblings or anyone.
In California there is a limit age to be left alone which is only about 2-3 hours if under 18 and those hours are only in the daytime.Parents should be strongly cautioned on how they left there children home for so long maybe a hour is fine but not for 3 or say 4 hours. If your 16 it might well 3-4 hours as you get older time limits may be longer.Once you reach 18 you can live on your own with out time limits of being left alone at your parents home.
I was told 13 last night by a family member, but after looking on the internet every site I read has told me 14 years old.
A child must be at least 8 years old to stay home alone in Georgia. At this age and in this state, they can babysit siblings as well.
