There is no legal age to babysit in North Carolina. It is whatever age the parents feel responsible and allow you to babysit. In general, 12 years old is a reasonable age to start babysitting.

It really depends. If your older child is 15 and younger is 10. You should be good. but, ask your older child if they feel comfortable babysitting. sometimes if they are two close in age they fight a lot, and you don't want to leave your household to fighting.

An older sibling who has to provide for younger siblings has a great deal of pressure mentally and financially and they are new at parenting and trying to be patient; let their younger siblings know they are loved while trying to meet their needs day to day. While the older sibling may begrudgingly think life is not fair even though they love their younger siblings they need to see into the future that they will have gained respect as a role model to their younger siblings. Depending on the age of the older sibling they may have no alternative, but to divide the younger siblings amongst the relatives in the family for a period of time which can lead to feelings of guilt.
