Is there a legal age to babysit in Washington?

Answer 1

You have to be at least 10 years old to take the Babysitting Course. In the class they learn CPR for child and infant among many other valuable lessons. As far as legally, I have heard 10 for siblings and 11 for others but I have tried to research the legal age and have not been able to find any for sure. Hope this helps.
