[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you should have paid her, OP, but I don't think you made some major mistake and there is no "cancellation rule" unless your sitter has one and tells you ahead of time.

Personally, I think your sitter is pretty immature by just ignoring your calls. She should just tell you she isn't open to sitting because you didn't pay for 90min one day.

[b]She should also check her messages.[/b] [/quote]

She should probably get a cell phone.[/quote]

To me that wouldn't matter - the nanny/babysitter held open 9 to 5 for this family.  She should be paid for 9 to 5 regardless of whether she picked up her messages 12 or 13 hours before her start time.  [/quote]

Nope, she didn't work she shouldn't get paid. If you want a job where you get paid the exact same amount every time and have certain exact hours then get a job that is salaried, babysitting is hourly. Just like if you work at Burger King you might be on the schedule Saturday from 8am - 4pm and then at 7:30 they call you and tell you not to come in until noon. Tough luck, you won't get paid for 8-12. That's life for these types of jobs.[/quote]

That is clearly not how this sitter feels!  And the sitter is not the one posting - her ex-employer is.  The OP wants the sitter to work for her again (OP apparently believed as you do) and the sitter won't even return her calls.

Who lost out in this situation?  The person who believed as you do.  [/quote]

Theres thousands of good babysitters, everyone has been in OPs shoes thinking they have found the ONE, but there are many more out there and many more even better than this one. Just because OP has fallen in love with this sitter doesn't make me feel any different. OP hasn't really lost anything, she just isn't looking around.[/quote]
