How do you choose a childminder, when there is only one available

That's pretty much it.
I have called every childminder in this town on the childcare.gov list and they are all full, or cannot do the school run. I have found someone, one of the childminders whom I rang suggested and I am seeing her tomorrow after school.
So I have a choice of 1
I must admit she sounded nice over the phone so I am just crossing my fingers.
BTW - that is 47 childminders I have called !!!
I am feeling paranoid

Hello, I am a support childminder in Hertford, if you have no luck, with the cm you are seeing at the weekend, I may be able to help, my fellow support childmider serves the school I think your dc go to, I could speak to her as I think there are lots of childminders that serve that particular school. Good luck
