when i first started it took a good 4/5 months to find a mindee and that was word of mouth through a friend. i find most my calls and enquiries now are through word of mouth too and i spent ages advertising at the start.
have you given the local schools, pre-schools, children centres your details or a leaflet? also local drs, toddler groups, community halls could have a poster or leaflet.
if you have your own children at school start telling everyone and anyone that your a childminder and have vacancies!
also maybe get talking to other childminders (childminding groups are good) and ask them to pass on any call they may not want.
good luck, hope that helps x
