It is acceptable for children ages 11 to 14 to baby-sit, with the expectation that the parent, guardian, or caretaker will be returning to supervise the children later that same day. It is acceptable for teens aged 15 and older to baby-sit younger children for more than 24 hours. Certification of teen babysitters is not mandatory under the Minnesota babysitting laws, but many responsible teens chose to take a babysitting class such as those taught by the American Red Cross. A good babysitter should be trained to handle emergencies including choking. They should be skilled in first aid and CPR. (laborlawtalk.com)
