Over how many years does the novel 'Frankenstein' take place?

For English class, I am writing a sequel essay to Frankenstein in the perspective of the creature after Frankenstein dies. I want to convey that he is a child stuck behind his own alter ego persona and that he is really just a good, innocent child underneath everything. My teacher thinks he's like 30 years old, but I thought he was more around 6. Any clear cut answers? I'm talking about the original 1818 version but I guess the 1831 one would be fine in this regard. I am DEFINITELY not talking about the (or any, for that matter) movie.
