[quote=Anonymous]You should talk to them in person AND draft a letter, to follow the conversation and ensure full understanding. Tell them that you've realized you need a reliable schedule so you can fill any open gaps with work at the childcare center or with other families and will be asking for Xdays notice if they need to cancel. For nanny jobs. 1-2 weeks notice is reasonable. For babysitting, 24 hours notice is most common. Let them know that this is your livelihood and you need to be able to plan ahead financially so you will be implementing a cancellation fee of $X whenever they can't give you enough notice. They ought to be very understanding of this but if they're not it may be time to find a new position that can guarantee you hours.[/quote]
