Childminders with websites?

[Littlepurpleprincess]

I have just moved and I'm advertising in my area. I've been thinking about having my own little website. Most households have access to the internet now and I though it would be a good, instant way of parent's checking out what I do, reading my policies and that before they contact me if they want.

Do any of you other childminders have a website and have you found it useful?

Hi, yes i have a website and do find it very usefull.
I pay very little for it as i have it with freewebs so just pay a yearly subscripton to have adverts removed.

wow thats really good! Was it difficult to make?

And can you up date it easily?

I don't cm anymore but when I did I also built my own website using freewebs, it's really easy, I had never done anything similar before and managed it on my own. I found it useful to put on my CIS/FIS listing so parents could click the link to my website and instantly have more info, pics of setting, references, everything basically. Really usful and impressed parents too.

No its really easy to upadte and build.
So glad i done it as i know im the only CM locally who has one and it does impress parents..

ok now I'm having a row with DP over what to call it....

What do ya think?
