my step son is 11 and is baby sitting a 2 yr old and an 8 yr old-is this ok?
11 or 12
Yes, when I was 11, I started babysitting. Only if you are mature and know CPR and know how to handle children.
if you take a course, any age or it depends on the person you are babysitting
It depends on the age of the child but yea if you think you can handle it
First off, being only ten years old and wanting to babysit is too young ,because at that age you are technically still a child yourself. Thirteen is considered the minimum age to start babysitting.
you can start babysitting
A child must be 12-13 years of age to participate in a babysitting course in Indiana, but there is no set legal age to actually babysit.Hope this helps!- Keener Demeanor -
Age of babysitting in WisconsinI would say eleven or twelve, or like the other person said, they start taking classes at 11 finish somewhere around twelve, then start babysitting.
A great way to begin a child to start babysitting is if they have a little sister or brother. Giving them extera responsibilitys with there care will help out. A good age is around 9 years old, but nothing big, easy things like when you take a shower and you need the toddlers watched after by the 9 year old, that's great. Nothing more than that. Once they hit 14-15 they could watch kids around 6. 16 is a perfect age for her to go out and watch other poeples kids at there houses once she gets the babysitting license. She has to be 16 to get the lisecnce I believe. After that its smooth sailing for her. This is only from my experience with children, and my own babysitting Exp. I am a male and I started babysitting at the age of 13. I watched children for a few days at a time. Once I hit 14-15 it was easy as pie.
Aslong as you can do the job,age doesn't matter
twleve or older you just have to be mature
Yes!! You can babysit at age 11 as long as you are responsible it should be fine.
