This is not a legal age but it is an interpretation of the law that children shouldn't be left alone if they are under 14.
Leaving a 14 year old to look after younger siblings depends on the maturity of the child and the circumstances under which they are left to baby sit.
It depends on where you live or where you what to babysit for instance mane in 1 place you have to be 13 or in Hawaii you have to be 12.

I think the legal age is 12 years old.
According to the Office of the New Zealand Childrens' Commissioner, a child must be 14 years old to be left at home alone or in charge of younger children.
There is currently not a law that specifies the age a child has to be to stay home alone overnight. It is left up to the parents to decide if their child is mature enough to handle it.
