well the best way to find out that answer is call local law enforcement. i can tell you i am from Florida and i asked an officer floridas laws and was told that a child that is responsible can babysit over the age of 9. i had a 12 yr old that babysat a 9 and 2 yr old. glgl
Answer to the QuestionYes, it is legal. However, it is probably not a good idea. Most place believe that a teenager (13) can handle one child for short periods of time. A toddler is usually more trouble and throw a 9 year old into the mix and I wouldn't recommend it.Copyright © 2026 eLLeNow.com All Rights Reserved.
