I am full and have 3 parents looking for 2/3 days a week. It 's nice to be popular but I can't fit everyone in and I hate saying no because you never know what is round the corner.
Wish some of you lived nearer and I could pass some work your way

In my street along theres 5 minders !!! And we are all full ( or as full as we would like to be) Plus i've had three calls this week, and one visit ( who didn't like me much )
busy here too!! crazy as it's so true...with our job you just never know whats round the corner...I can go for ages with not a call and then...at at once!

a mummy to a new puppy! My lovely King Charlie!
I have managed to squeeze in a couple more since Christmas and I am sure I already said I was as full as I wanted to be
Northampton is still very quiet. I am desperate for full timer and have only had a part time 3 hrs a day enquiry. I ideally I want full time niot just term term, which all mine are.
Wishing it would pick up

See if they want a cm the other side of caerphilly
Will do hun
i new to all this and havnt relly had any enquries i live in the wrose bradford area and it really quiet
It took me a while to fill up - hope your phone starts ringing soon x
Any one overflowing down on the south coast, newly registered here and need some calls!!!
I'm in South Northants and its very quiet here too! wish you could pass them my way!!
I am full to bursting, only had a slot on monday and friday available - had a call yesterday for a 10 month old on a friday term time only!! Seeing them next week so fingers crossed!!! Not looking to actually fill the monday but if the call comes..... will see lol!!!! Had a call today for 16 month old twins 2 days a week but no room so had to pass on numbers of other minders. Thing is, the ones who are currently desperate for mindees do not appear to be advertising anywhere, just relying on word of mouth which seems a bit odd!!!! - and they don't pop into the childminders group even for a quick cuppa and catch up and to be honest i'm more likely to pass on numbers of Minders I see on a regular basis - maybe its just me?!?!?

Out of curiosity - how have they found out about you - is it via the website channels of what was Parent Know How (PKHD) now Family Information Direct (FID) or down to local advertising/word of mouth?
i'm trying to measure its effects...
One was a previous parent who has had another baby. one was a recommendation from another parent and one was from the internet. childcare.co.uk
Ive got 1 from *****, 3 from chldcare.co.uk, 1 recommendation from another parent and another 2 because i made flyers last sumer hols and got my yougest son (aged 9) to hand them out whenever he passed someone with a buggy
I don't get any enquiries down here on the South Coast...have just joined childcare.co.uk so hopefully may get some interest. Mum of lo I care for full-time has just lost her job and is looking for a new one at the moment so she is retaining a space but it's so worrying that she may not find one for a while. Only have one other lo part-time a few hours a week
I've also had 3 this week, one for twins aged 2, a 6 month old, and 1 year old but im full to bursting
another curiosity question - why childcare.co.uk?
what did it offer differently?
what made it better?
