it should be noted, that if parents arrange for a baby sitter who is under sixteen years of age the parents have not transferred any responsibility for their children to be looked after. Therefore, should any harm or accident occur to a child whilst in the care of an under age baby sitter, the parents may still be held responsible and may have action taken against them for neglect.

Thats what I must have known and over time wrongly presumed it meant you had to be 15 to babysit...I am guessing I aint the only one.
