What's the best time to contact a potential childminder?

Probably being too sensitive about this but am looking for childminder and am wondering what time of day is best to make contact. Is it during the day when they might be busy with the children but is in their working hours or in the evening when they could be more available to talk?
Can any childminders out there tell me their preferences.

To me it really doesn't make any difference as anytime of the day can be a bad/good time!
If I get a call I say it is a bad time I arrange a mutally convienient time to call again!
Give a call, but I wouldn't call before 9:30 as most are out doing the school run!
