    Hi ,
    You should go by whatever is in your contract.

    If Mum needs to change them she will need to speak to you about it and ask you if you can agree to new contracted hours. Until then I would be charging full. Its not your fault or your problem that her employers are messing her about after all.

    If its a while before you invoice her/charges are due I would probably just mention it to her in a 'Oh dear I really hope you work something out with work soon, because I will still need to charge you for contracted hours? ' kind of way...

    Good luck

    best wishes,
    Wendy
