What a lovely informative website!

Thank you for the link to the forum

Lovely, especially the colours, I like blue (as you probably noticed with the forum

), it is very relaxing on the eyes.

Thanks for the link

Oh, I'm not sure why that is. I've just tried and it seems to working fine for me.

Nice site

plenty of info.

Can I just ask, you refer to we/us, but then I can't actually find anything about who "we/us" is? Is it just you, or do you work with an assistant or fellow CM? If that's the case it would be a good selling point and worth mentioning clearly. If not, I'd change to "I/me" as it's confusing!

Hope you don't mind the critique!

**DudleyChildmind** · 28-01-2009, 07:10 PM

I don't mind at all and thanks for taking the time to look

Myself and my daughter are Childminders and we work together and it's great but she doesn't look after any children at the moment but she is hoping to again soon.

**Pudding Girl** · 28-01-2009, 07:11 PM

Ahhhh!

Well mention that, it's a huge plus point that you should be exaggerating

**DudleyChildmind** · 28-01-2009, 07:17 PM

I never thought of that, thanks for pointing it out. I just need to reword it now and I'm not very good at that so I'll get my thinking cap on

**misst104** · 28-01-2009, 07:49 PM

All I can say is WOWWWWWW!!!! You have obviously put alot of time and effort into the website and it really shows

Lots of info, very well worded, lovely pictures, great testimonials....shall I go on!!!!!!

I can't imagine I will ever be able to produce anything this good or provide what sounds like such a brilliant service. If I was looking for childcare I would certainly be knocking on your door!!!!

Aww that's a lovely thing to say, thank you

**DudleyChildmind** · 01-03-2009, 06:33 PM

I don't want to sound cheeky but I've just added a guestbook to our website and I know the children would love to hear from you so if you have time would you be kind enough to leave a message please?

Thank you

**Pauline** · 01-03-2009, 06:39 PM

I tried but when I clicked the guestbook it tried to open mail and I got a message that a programme was trying to access my address book and that it could be a virus and to select no!!

**DudleyChildmind** · 01-03-2009, 06:42 PM

Oh no

I have purposely done it so it opens up in an email to protect the children from unsuitable messages being left.

I have no idea why it's causing a problem though, sorry. Thanks for trying though. I will look into it now.

**Pauline** · 01-03-2009, 06:43 PM

Can't you use a guestbook that is moderated, then you can delete any messages before the children see them anyway.

**DudleyChildmind** · 01-03-2009, 06:44 PM

I did think about that Pauline but I don't want to host it myself and the free ones are full of adverts so the email was the next best thing I could think of.
