[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pp here who does expect an explanation if someone tells me they are taking a job and then cancels. You are right - my recourse would be to just not hire that person and if burned badly enough to let my neighbors know too if they asked about that sitter. I frankly am skeptical that finding an occasional sitter is all that hard though. (A great nanny - yes - but a date night sitter? I [b]basically need someone capable of not frightening my kids in the 1 hr they are awake before lights out[/b] while the date night sitter comes. I just don't think it is all that rough a job or tough to find someone to do. [/quote] If that's your bar, then of course its easy to find a body, but said sitter also has to be willing to deal with you, like your kids, and feel well compensated for their Friday/Saturday night. I'm not sure you realize this, but date night sitters are usually from your area and you can also gain a reputation. I would venture to guess that this is exactly OP's problem. Sitters for some reason don't like working for her. [/quote]
