Pros
You work more for the family and less for the company. However, the company does offer good support, ie sending in a replacement when you are unable to go to work. As a student, your schedule will often mirror that of the child's, so that is easy to schedule classes. It's also nice to pick up a couple on call shifts for extra cash.
Cons
Being on call can be a little unpredictable and mess up your plans. The rate that the family pays is a much higher rate than you receive.
