I would tell them or even a write up a letter letting the parents know that May 25th you will be unavailable to care for their child. This will give at least a couple of wks for them to prepare for alternative care for that day.

In your contract do you provide a back up in case your out or do you have it said that parents need to have a back up on their own?

I don't provide a back up but sometimes a family member will sub. for me in extreme cases.
