At what age did you start leaving your child in a room alone?

Posted by admin

petiesmom asked:


We have a play room in the basement which is childproofed. Our son is 11 months, which I think is much too young to leave unsupervised, but I was wondering at what age he’ll be ready. At what age are children generally ready to be left unsupervised for a few minutes (i.e. putting the laundry in)? How old were your children when you started letting them play alone in a room, where you can hear them, for longer periods of time?

Thanks!
