:angry: :angry: :angry: Do you think its worth your while upgrading to gold membership on the childcare.co.uk?? My local FIS no longer advertises childminders!!! Not happy!

I am a gold member and find it very useful to be able to reply to other members / parents who might want to use my services.

some LAs are setting up their own systems as well so keep in touch locally :D

I've no idea, I'm not a member.

Didn't want to read and run - hopefully someone will be along to answer you soon

I am not sure the new system is up and running in East Cheshire yet.

Some LAs are responding quicker than others to the FIS site closing down.

I think they said end of May when I last spoke to them :D

I recently registered and had forms from my fis to complete which i duely did. I then looked on the site and couldnt find a link or anything! So i just put it into google and found where they advertise everyone. i can remember it now but give me a minute and ill have another look......

I find it extremely useful to be a gold member. I have messaged many parents looking for childcare and as a result we have taken 4 of them on.:D

ok,took a while but i got it www.openfamilyservicesdirectory.org.uk ,(ofs)national coverage, local family services
i think its council run so just put your postie in and theyl bring up a list with all cms details on that you originally submitted, if you consented to having your details online.
