jack was probably 2 when we would let him have a shower alone and about 27mths when he wa shaving abth, we are within ear shot and constantly calling out or checking but yeah he has baths alone
Not sure when we started doing it, but we leave ours and they're about 3 and 18months.
I'd say it depends on each situation - in our situation, our house is quite small, and the kids quite chatty, so when I hear them stop chatting, I'll stick my head in. And the bathroom's quite central so I'm walking past quite often.
I imagine it'll be different in our new house where the bathroom is tucked away a bit more, I might have to find something to do much closer. And obviously I don't go out of earshot, like outside or anything. I don't think I'd be putting washing on the line during a bath til they were much older, as in old enough for someone to come and get me if things went wrong.
DS1 turns 4 in November and he doesnt have unsupervised baths. I nearly drowned as a child so maybe thats why but I wasnt planning on leaving him unsupervised til 5
