First of all, the child must be comfortable with the fact that its parents will be gone for some time. Secondly, it is very important that the child know how to call for help or advice if needed.

This would depend on your divorce agreement if it is specifically stipulated in it. If not and you pay child support it should come out of that money which adjust through the years depending on your income. Length of time is specified by the court in the support agreement and is typically standard by state. If there was a divorce, it will be specified.

This can all depend on how well your child can take care him themself. An ideal age is 10.

Can I with my babysitter?

If you are asking what I think you are asking the answer is a BIG NO. If you need a babysitter you are too young to think about such things and if the babysitter took part in something involving sex he or she could be arrested for child sexual abuse. They have a place of trust that they must uphold and your parents have put this person in charge of you. Go outside and play.

Can a child be a babysitter?

No. A babysitter needs to be a trustworthy, responsible, attentive, intelligent teenager or adult, preferably with a driver's license in case of emergency. They have to be trusted to answer the phone and not tell a total stranger that the head of the house is not around, and they need to be able to answer the door wisely and responsibly. A child would simply be in too much danger as a babysitter. Even if they know all the rules, accidents do happen, and I don't know about you, but if I had a child, I would want my babysitter to be able to drive my child to the hospital. Also, if you're thinking about dinner, a child can use a microwave, sure, but they can burn themselves, and Heaven forbid a child should have access to a stove or an oven. A responsible adult will be able to make a wholesome dinner for the child, or at least be old enough to order pizza. So no; a child most definitely cannot be a babysitter.


Can a blind person babysit?

Absolutely! Of course, the blind babysitter would need to be very familiar with his/her environment -- so in his/her own home would probably work out the best. And of course (as with any babysitter) he/she should be responsible and old enough to handle everything that could come up, and should have a phone. The child being watched should be old enough to understand that the caregiver cannot see. I have a legally blind student who babysits frequently, and she always does an excellent job!
