COVID-19 Pandemic Resource List 2020 Parenting Tips

Featured Tip - Leaving a Child at Home Alone

When is it OK? Ask yourself...

• Is your child physically and mentally able to care for himself/herself? • Does your child obey rules and make good decisions? • Does your child feel comfortable or fearful about being home alone? • Is your home safe and free of hazards? • Does your child know where you are and how to contact you at all times?

Make a plan!

• Have a trial period. Leave the child alone for a short time while staying close to home. • Role play. Act out possible situations. • Establish rules. Make sure your child knows what is (and is not) allowed when you are not home. • Check in. Call your child while you are away. • Don't overdo it. Even a mature, responsible child shouldn't be home alone too much.
