[quote=Anonymous]I would think it's less about age and more about how smooth bedtime goes. If everyone has a bedtime routine, and a standard bedtime, and the baby is sleep trained (or just a naturally good sleeper) and can put himself to sleep after a fairly short bedtime routine, then you would be good to leave with an experienced sitter. If the baby need to be rocked and rocked and rocked, and maybe fed to sleep, and that doesn't always work, and the two year old does five rounds of getting up needing water or a stuffy or a hug or whatever, and the 4 year old basically has to be bribed to bed, that's not going to work. But if you don't mess around about sleep training and bedtimes and routines, I would think you'd be fine by the time the baby is ready - so 4 or 6 months. [/quote]
