In terms of advertising, do you ever feel that you are stepping on other minders' toes?
I never used to do where I lived, because both supply and demand were great and so you never really felt like you were competition for each other. London being London, I didn't really know many other childminders anyway, and the population was transient, so they would come and go like everyone else.
Here though, it's a bit more community orientated and people have lived here for most of their lives etc etc, so I don't want to be seen as the new minder on the block who is trying to barge in and steal everyone's potential clients.
I do want to get my name out there a bit more though, but I am so nervous about stepping on toes if you know what I mean.
