Hi, did we used to get a discount for childcare.co.uk via this site or anywhere else? Have seen someone look at my profile who looks ideal for my availability but don't want to pay £20 a month!

Click on 'Private Messages' in the blue banner near the top of the screen, click 'Send New Message' in the list to the left, then start typing Richard's name, it will appear in the list which comes up as you start typing. Then do a message like when writing a post.

HTH :D

You'll be surprised how quickly your post count goes up if you write a few posts a day. This forum is very addictive sometimes! :D

Ive got a moutain to climb to reach 300! lol so basically if we get to 300 and obviously keep posting past this do we get perks? Like discount off childcare.co.uk? I too have had a few people look at my profile but as I have just left my job to start minding I literally dont have any income so dont really want to pay £20 but need mindees asap. I might have a family of 3 (which would be perfect) but mums undecided yet.

I haven't heard back from Richard yet, it is Saturday after all though :) I thought there used to be a discount to buy the membership with childcare.co.uk but haven't seen anything on here about it lately so may be wrong, will hopefully hear from him Monday

Hi Vix84, I have recently contacted Richard (few wks ago) for the same thing and he told me that if I paid the full amount he would refund me the discount so maybe there isn't a code anymore. I have just signed up again today.

Maybe I will have enough posts by next year lol. I've spent a fortune on that childcare site over the last few years. Paid for annual membership this year. It has got me most of my new parents though :) Just need some more now!

I can't afford the year subscription at the moment :( I wish over new year I took up the half price offer they were doing.

It is 50% discount but you have to be a green member. I think occasionally it is open to all members as I saw it once before I was a green member. Any discount through this forum would be for you and you only though. Your friends would have to be a green member of this forum. You couldn't pass the code on or you might be excluded from using the forum.

Hope this helps :thumbsup:

Yes but it's all relative. That fortune is well spent as the site has paid for itself in work! :D

I only joined the forum in September and didn't use it very much to start with. I passed 300 posts around Xmas I think. Just have to keep chatting!

(You added another just by posting that!) :laughing:

Oh yes i realise that , I am already a gold member and used a code that the forum gave me, they wanted to do the same and get their own codes :-)

looks like they need to get busy chatting :thumbsup:

Brand new childminder here : No children apart from my own.
If you become a member of childcare.co.uk Can parents contact you ? Or can they only contact people if THEY become members ???

300 posts ! wow.

Second one! The person with gold membership can initiate the conversation. After the initial message, the non member can send one back.

Get chatting, you will be surprised how quickly you can get to 300 posts and you can get to know people and get terrific help :thumbsup:
