For short time frames, sure why not.
They aren’t mature enough
YEs you should be 11 or 12
I don't believe that there is a legal age,but I personally believe that you should be at least 12 or 13.
you have to be 12 years old in order to babysit
the law is you have to be at least 12 to babysit! hope this helps!
If you are responsible and if the parent knows you very well, then it should be okay to babysit at ten years old. In Addition: It also depends on the laws in your area. In many places, you have to be at least 12 years old to babysit.
i bet its 12. i am 12 and all of my friends babysit or have been babysitting. everybody i offer to babysit thinks i am too young, even close family members and neighbors I've known for years think so. i really need the money!!!! what i should do?
For any state, it should be atleast 11 or 12, when they are more mature.
I think that this all depends on maturity. If you are twelve, you should be able to look after at least 3 children but you should never babysit more than 5 kids unless you are old enough to. Then again, if the family trusts you with 5 kids because they know you are practical, responsible and caring, you should be okay. Be sure to check with your arents before you babysit anyone, though!!
In Canada, you should be able to babysit at age 11. The States should have a similar law.
12 and up
12+
