    Default Shall i, Shan't i?

    I've got my business cards, got some advertising posters, filled in my form for Childcare link and the local Council, but i'm hanging back from the big push.
    I think its mainly because i've still got quite a few policies still to do and also the pre-school committee work is taking over my life and my free time
    Can you ladies give me some advise?
    I would like to start advertising but i'm scared someone might want me straight away and i won't be ready for them (paperwork wise) and i hardly get enough time at the computer as it is!
    And i'm also a bit overwhelmed at the moment, but i've had a nice letter from my mentor who's been allocated to me and i'll get to meet her after half-term so would it be best to wait until then?
    Don't know what to do for the best

    start advertising now - yes you'll wet yourself when you get your first enquiry but it will give you the kick you need to finish your policies etc.
    the first parent i met i thought i sounded like a complete idiot, but i am now minding their son so can't have been too awful!
    Blessed Be!

    Thanks Kindred! I know i'll sound daft as well and i'll get a squeaky voice, but it all depends on what the parent is like as if they don't make me feel at ease in my own home then i don't think i could work with them.
