In this episode, Tammy and Tania unpack one of the most common questions parents ask: “How old is old enough to stay home alone?”
Together, they explore the developmental skills kids need before taking this step—things like emotional regulation, problem-solving, impulse control, and knowing what to do in an emergency. They also talk about age guidelines, legal considerations, red flags that a child may not be ready, and the small practice steps families can take to build confidence along the way.
Tammy and Tania share practical scripts, real-life examples, and gentle reassurance to help parents make this decision with clarity rather than fear. Whether your child is asking for more independence or you’re wondering if it’s time, this episode will help you navigate the transition safely and thoughtfully.
