[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I leave my 11, 9 and 6 year old at home alone often. I work from home, but I occasionally need to run errands or have an appointment and I leave the 3 alone. My mom k dear can call me from her iPad. We have Ring and I can see if anyone comes at the door. I haven’t left them alone for date night yet, but I will probably start doing that in a year or so. Having 3 is different though because if something happens to one, the others can always call me.[/quote] Not judging but this would be illegal in MD. You can’t leave a 6 year old in the care of kids under 13. So the older two could be home for intervals but not the little one. To answer OP, you can start slowly with your child for short stints, but you should probably have a sitter for regular/longer stints while in ES. [/quote]
