since the legal age in Michigan to stay home alone is 12, i believe that the legal age for babysitting is also 12.
there is not a legal age for babysitting it is up to the parents and what the feel comfortable with
Adults think that every state has their own law on the legal age to babysit and the legal age to stay home alone. There is NO legal age. It depends on their maturity level, experience, and whether or not they're certified. That is why a 7 year old cannot stay home alone or babysit, they are NOT ' too young '. They are simply not mature enough and will not handle an emergency the correct way. Most parents trust babysitters who are ages 13+. I think 13 is a good age to start babysitting. 12 is a good age to start staying home alone.

There isn't a 'legal' age. It's pretty much whatever the parents want. That if, of course, if you are just watching kids for a family you know. However, if you want to get a job at a child care place, then it depends on the place itself.
