I typically wait an hour before texting parent to ask if so and so will be coming. How long do you wait?

Parents have to notify me within 30 minutes of their expected arrival time if they are going to be late.
If they don't call, they are considered a "No-show" and marked absent for the day. After 3 "No-shows" termination may occur.
It is a matter of simple respect. NOT calling your provider is really a disrespectful and immature thing to do.
Either way, I RARELY text or call a parent about their absence. Not unless I really really think something is "off" and it's not normal behavior for the family to not show up or call.
Otherwise, I won't chase my clients and "remind" them of their ADULT obligations.
