I have experience at the earliest age of 13 and have been since. I babysat two kids from age 7 and 9 until they were 14 and 16. I also watched two kids from 3 and 6 until they were 7 and 10. I no longer watch them since I moved too far from them. I did basic/light housekeeping as well as cooking and transportation.
