That would depend on the conditions of employment.
There is no particular requirement. Most psychologists of our acquaintance spend at least an hour on paperwork and other details for every hour they spend with a client. In an institutional setting, that could be more or less. In private practice, different yet.
Yes. Many times they work for a hospital, medical group, or mental health clinic that requires them to be "on call" which means they are contacted any time day or night. This includes weekends. When a child is in mental distress they have to be helped and it can't wait so this is part of the job of a psychologist.
they also do birthdays

Well when i had one it was not on weekends on like school days but it might have changed.
I think that child psychologists need a safe working environment where they can work without having to; worry about getting hurt. It should also be clean and peaceful.
Psychologists administer this screening. Child Psychologists have been screening for this disorder longer than adult Psychologists so sometimes General Physicians will refer a patient to a Child Psychologist

Psychologists' work environments vary by subfield and place of employment. For example, clinical, school, and counseling psychologists in private practice frequently have their own offices and set their own hours. However, they usually offer evening and weekend hours to accommodate their clients. Those employed in hospitals, nursing homes, and other healthcare facilities may work shifts that include evenings and weekends, and those who work in schools and clinics generally work regular daytime hours. Most psychologists in government and industry have structured schedules. Psychologists employed as faculty by colleges and universities divide their time between teaching and research and also may have administrative responsibilities; many have part-time consulting practices. Increasingly, a good number of psychologists work as part of a team, consulting with other psychologists and medical professionals. Many experience pressures because of deadlines, tight schedules, and overtime.
