13 is the generally accepted age. However, this is just a guideline as their are many other factors to consider (age of kids being watched over, any state laws, maturity of sitter). In most cases, it is up to the discretion of the parent.
9 years old seems far too young, even for an intelligent and mature child.
Ummmm there isn't an age limit really. If you are 12 or younger, that might be a little bit too young, I have personally been babysitting since I was probably 13. Started out for short periods of times and worked my way up. It actually depends on the kids' ages too. Also the parents and how they feel towards babysitters. How old are you?
1o at the youngest.A kid could be 15 and be babysitting but not very responsible and did a bad job.But then again you can get a 10 year old who is great at the job and responsible.
It realy depends
I think you should really be about 13 to babysit because you are then considered a teen. However, if you are not responsible you should not babysit.
Um, well by law, your not to babysit other children until your 13 but at 12 you can babysit your sibiling.
Only if the gardians can trust you enough to babysit their children. If you can prove to them you are mature enough to babysit, then go for it.
go to hobo land on the caost of new England
Yes, an 11 year old can babysit in Virginia. The decision is up to the parents of the babysitter and the parents of the child. Most children do not babysit until they are 12 years old.
you can take out peoples trash walk there dog mow the lawn or babysit
I think a ten year old can babysit as many children they can depending on their responsibility and how many kids they can handle.
Babysit depending on how old they are (12-13 years is about old enough)
With parental permission, but should not be for extended periods.
you can be 12 years old and babysit, that more money for us future women. :)
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!!
i think 2 i am not sure......
I am an eleven year old and there is NO limit to children. However parents must recognize in what hands there leaving there child in!
