I think DD was 4 and a bit before I was ok with being more than a few metres away while she was in the bath. Would only let her get herself out of the bath in summer because the little beggar wouldn't get out! She'd stay in there for hours if I let her, still does.
DS is 2 on thursday and if i have time before the bath i get everything ready otherwise i duck out quickly to get his pjs organised by in saying that the bathroom is directly in sight of his room. i can always hear him playing and splashing about in there. but 99% of the time i am in the room with him the whole time. its very rare that i dont get time before baths to get everything organised and if i am not in there then DH is.
I have in the last 6 months or so started the leaving the room, but I am directly across the hallway in DS room, he is in my direct line of sight, I just tidy up, get his stuff ready etc..
Most of the time though, I have a shower while DS is in the bath (we do mornings LOL) he is 3 and a bit .
