    I love the fact that if you have a question to ask and you think it is a silly question, you are never made to feel that it is a silly question on this forum.

    Almost everyone on here are kind and supportive even if they have a different opinion to you.

    I would also like a "like" button

    i love the forum as there are so many minders (even among regular posters and advice givers) that come from different backgrounds, different levels of experience and with different approaches to minding.

    I love seeing new minders feeling comfortable enough to post lots of questions without feeling nervous.

    Improvements...............hmmm, tricky one. More smilies!!!!!!!!!

    What i love: the fact that I can come here and get support and advice from other childminders who know excatly what I am going through on a daily babsis asa childminder, sometimes i dont even have to ask the question, but just search a keyword and find out the information, I also love how friendly the site is.

    What I would improve: Having a better childcare finder featured on the site, like childcare.co.uk

    the forum is my home. i would be lost without the support, advice and friendship i have had from the forum. i wouldn't have met some amazing childminders either, if not for the forum. its the first place i look in the morning, and the last place at night. i miss it when i am away and half my conversations to DH start 'on the forum ....'

    i'd like to be able to search again in under 30 seconds! and i'd like a like or thanks button too

    There's nothing that I can add that hasn't been said already

    Again, I'm with the majority, a like button, shorter search time...oh...and the "new posts" button at the bottom of the page to save me scrolling up to the top each time! I'm lazy, me!

    I would like a 'like' button or similar if it is possible please.

    I often go into threads and see the answer already written there so I don't want to duplicate what someone else has said when there is no need...

    But the OP must go back to their thread and wonder why so many people have looked at it and only 1 or 2 commented - it can be quite disheartening for them.

    I know a percentage of the views are from google bots etc but there must also be a lot of forum members who are seeing the posts and reading a good strong reply which doesn't need another comment adding.

    I don't want to enter the competition please Richard

    I love my forum family... They are always here when I need an ear, be it on the forum, by email or phone.

    I love that now I have a bit more experience I feel more confident helping others.


    changes... the ability to 'like' a post (facebook) or the ability to 'thank someone for their advice' as on mse forum
    boo

    Thank you very much for all the entries.

    The winner chosen at random is ~Chelle~ - congratulations!

    It seems most of you pretty much like the forum as it is which is great

    There were quite a few requests for a like/thanks button and also for a mobile app.

    I will do everything psosible to get both of these implemented as soon as possible.

    Thanks again

    I love this forum as even though I am new to childcare and only became registered this year, I feel part of a network of professionals of whom I can get in touch with at anytime, via the forum and receive prompt responses/feedback/advice on absolutely anything!

    This forum takes the isolation out of childminding and makes each and every one of us part of a virtual team. It's our hub.

    Improvements? Being new, I find it hard to navigate sometimes, there may already be one but a sitemap would really help

    Forgot to say...even though the comp has finished, still adding as its still useful feedback
