Difficulty filling spaces
I have 6 children on roll at the moment, all after schoolies, ranging from ages 6 to 10, all term time only. I have one leaving in January, one leaving in July and two leaving in November. I have no under 5's and haven't had any for over a year...not so much as one phone enquirey! I advertise with my LA, Childcare.co.uk and *****. I've been an Ofted registered Childminder for over 12 years, so i'm very experienced. I also have a level 3.
I was just wondering how you all advertise your spaces and can anyone offer me any advice, we seem to be drowning in Childminders, Nursaries and After school Clubs in this area and i'm worried i may have to give it all up, which i don't want to do but i need to earn a wage!
