[quote=Anonymous]I stopped reading replies about half way down. First, talk to the family that cancels a lot and say that you need to work with a guaranteed amount of hours each week (with a regular schedule). If this position is more of an occasional type of work, whenever they need some help, then don't cancel any other work you may have on that day for them. You are already scheduled for something and just let them know if they can't make it a regular schedule, that there are going to be many times that you will already have something else (if not always). They as employers can decide if they want to commit a regular schedule to you (with regular guaranteed pay) OR they can then find someone else for when you are not available (or just find another sitter to use totally). I would not be canceling ANY other work for them, especially if they are known to cancel on you at a time when it is too late for you to find something else (whether it is 24 hours before or even a week before). Talk to them in person about all of this, you can make notes to refer to while talking to them, but talking is necessary.[/quote]
