    Same here, just got 1 full-time mindee and it's been like that for months now! Could really do with some more!! Have had enquiries, but haven't been able to accommodate. Anyone close to Gravesend area, if you PM me with your details, I can pass them on to anyone enquiring?

    Same here as well. Been registered since Oct and only had 4 enquiries. Looks like I will be full soon with a mum of 2 under 5s returning to work hopefully! She just wants her partner to read the info but has already rang me up again asking a question about how soon they could theoretically start so I'm hopeful!

    Note to Helen Dempster / Emma Dines from Kent CFIS

    I have looked at your profiles we issue to parents and upload to our website

    i have made a slight alteration based upon the vacancy information we held on you (i hope they are still correct) Helen 3 vacancies / Emma 2 vacancies - i hope this helps in your search to fill some spaces you have currently.

    regards

    I am in Strood and I am very quiet, have not had a call for months and months. It worries me as I will be losing money from September when lo starts nursery. Could do with someone else. Might think about doing a bit of advertising.
