There is no 'legal' age to babysit in most states, including Montana. Most authorities would say that a 12 to 13 year old can be left alone for a couple of hours during the day. Their ability to watch another child is more limited.

However, leaving a child in a car is never considered a safe thing to do.

There is no age. Whatever the parent feels is right, and your parent too. Taking a course with Red Cross or some organization like that will make it more likely you'll get hired as well as safer for the kid.

There is no law in Washington regarding the age for "casual labor"

casual labor includes babysitters, lawn mowing, house cleaning, newspaper routes etcetra. These types of jobs are not covered by minimum wage, overtime or age laws. However, if the babysitting is conducted in a public building, it may be regulated by city or county rules/ordinances.
