Many mothers on Mumsnet mention their own experiences of babysitting, often for money, from the age of 12 and in some cases younger. One highlights how attitudes are different in Germany and Switzerland where children commonly walk to school alone from the age of six.
Children 9 years of age cannot be responsible for younger children or be left alone overnight.
