A good age would be age 12 or 13 years old, but also, you should make sure that you (or anyone else) are mature enough, and can handle caring for a child for a set amount of time, and it would be good to take a babysitting class.

∙ 14y agoIf you are just doing it around the neighborhood, ten, eleven or twelve is usually a good age. People start to trust you more, and your parents or legal guardians or whatever can put in a good word for you around town. Once you get a few baby sitting jobs, and (if) they go well, you get more and more. It's kind of gradual, though, so don't freak out if you don't have jobs pouring in after your first five jobs. If you get one steady family, that's great, because you know you're doing your job right. Back to the main point though... you could probably start around ten eleven or twelve years old. Hope this helped!

∙ 12y agoA large part of this depends on the maturity of the child in question. How responsible is he or she? Can he/she be trusted? Some 12-year-olds may be capable of caring for a younger child for a couple of hours, while a great many 16-year-olds would be hard-pressed to care for a pet rock.

∙ 12y agoI started being a "mommies helper" when I was 12 years old. A mommies helper just is there to watch the kids when the mom is home. Then when I started officially babysitting I was 13.

How old do you have to be before you can babysit?
Hi there! I think somewhere between 11-13 is a good age to start babysitting. If you want to start before then maybe try being a mother's helper- which basically is babysitting the kids with the parent(s) at home. Hope this helps! Thanks!

You have to be 11 years old, but you also need a legal permit that you can get from your school office. Without the permit, you're not getting farther than pulling your neighbor's weeds.
Where can I find the best safety training for my babysitting business?
The American Red Cross or a local non-profit that is specific to infant and child safety is the best way to start. You should also seek certification in child and infant CPR. Not only will this make you more marketable, but it can mean the difference between life and death in an emergency situation. Babysitting child care classes are also available through the Red Cross.
