8 to 10 years-Should not be left alone for more than 1Â½ hours and only during daylight and early evening hours. 11 to 12 years-May be left alone for up to 3 hours but not late at night or in circumstances requiring inappropriate responsibility. 13 to 15 years-May be left unsupervised, but not overnight.
It is important to consider these alongside what you know about your child and what your child tells you about his/her comfort level with staying home alone. County social service agencies generally recommend that children under 12 years of age not be left home alone. Before leaving children under 12 at home, parents should carefully consider their options and their childâs abilities.
