No show

[crayolamom]

I think it happens to majority of us at one point or another.

I do not reschedule no shows regardless of the "excuse". Also if parents are more than 15 minutes late for an interview I kindly decline.

I had a parent show up to my house a half an hour after the scheduled time because she was walking the dog and another one because her kid slept in. So I just tell them sorry I am leaving now as our meeting was set for this time and your were late.

I don't remind people either. They need care so if they are serious they will show up. For people who plan on not showing up I think that would happen with or without a reminder.
