As childminders (& often parents) we use this iste a lot and were wondering if (pretty please) we could have a Topic called Childminders club or childminding club.....for us to discuss issues like pricing/advertising/conflict with parents/children/training etc.....I know you have lots of topic - but we think this is different to Going back to work or Childcare topics that exsist......iyswim
Thanks - even if the answer is no

Hi there

Sorry for delay in getting back to you. We've had a number of requests for different clubs/topics within talk and will be discussing all at our meeting tomorrow morning. If you wouldn't mind waiting another day, we'll be able to come back to you with an answer then.

Rachel, Carrie and Justine

thankyou so much for putting us up for consideration.

we really think that this is a worthwhile subject

We would really like it to be in the club section if possible.

I have just finished work for the day and I am sure the other childminders will all be very grateful and supportive of the new club, when they finish work for the day.

like I said in previous post:

Happy childminders = happy children = happy parents = happy mumsnet.

I thought I would bumpity this so those who were busy working earlier could see that we have had a reply from Rachel

thanks rachel! would really appreciate a childminders club as we have a really important job and a club would be an extra support system which is much needed for us childminders.

Hello again, sorry - not ignoring or avoiding you, just still deliberating over a couple of things. Good news is you will get your topic and it will def be with you by the end of the week. I'll post here as soon as it's up and running. Thanks for your patience!
