    Your local pre-schools, toddler groups, doctors surgeries, schools etc.....anywhere that parents go with children. Even your local newsagents may display a poster for a small charge. Some places are less helpful than others but if you don't ask you won't know. Put a notice in your car...Registered Childminder has vacancy, mobile No. & area you live in.
    Local colleges often need childcare for student's children and there will be a new intake in September so I would try there too.
    Good Luck

    childrens play centres like cheeky chimps etc usually let you put poster up on the wall

    I am a nanny too. I have advertised my vacancy with nannyshare.co.uk and got a fairly good response. Maybe you can try them out. Bye and all the best.

    Would you be able to put childminding vacancies on this site though? Does it have a cm section? would be interested to know as could add this to my list of sites.

    Good luck with filling your vacancies - make sure you tell everyone (and I mean everyone) that you are a childminder
