I guess if I were just starting out or really needed the clients, I would take those PT families making it clear that if you get a ft client you can offer them first refusal for the spot but will have to let them go otherwise. Often when starting out we do what we need to to get our names out there. It may mean working second and third shifts or taking on PT clients. The BEST way I've found to attract good clients? Having kids in your day care. Very few people are wiling to be the Guinea pig when it comes to child care - potential clients are going to want to tour and see happy, engaged kids. Just a thought.
