    I’m kind of suspicious about a babysitting job some person asked me, because they were adults, and I’m currently almost 12, but they didn’t add add any period at the end of a sentence, and they even spelled ‘have’ as ‘hav’. I asked if they have been background checked, and they replied that they haven’t been yet, and they wrote: “Don’t worry you’re safe.” That kinda raises my suspicions…should I be worried? What do I do?

    Question
    How old do you need to be to start baby sitting

    • @BabysitterBoss
      @BabysitterBoss  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Age isn't as big of a deal as readiness. Take a Safe Sitter class (find one here safesitter.org/find-a-class/) and you'll know if you're ready!

    • @alexiegauthier9810

    • @hassanm427
      @hassanm427 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      hey, so I'm pretty sure if your 9 it isn't ideal because waiting for you to be the Legal age to sit at home alone is also required. for instance here in Australia, you need to be 10 years old to sit at home alone and 13 to take of others at home alone so you need to pretty much be 13 to babysit. Check the legal requirements in your country.

      You should absolutely ask about any allergies a kid may have! Some allergies may be minor, but some are real serious (like need an EpiPen type serious). Going in knowing about any allergies will help you in the long run and make sure the kiddos stay safe. Thanks so much for the great question!
