Thanks everyone! And yes I still have to do daycare in the basement 
But I've been down there and I;m used to being down there now it's cozy and quaint so I'm excited either way!!! I did look into it and I needed another accessible exit on my main level.

Congratulations!!!
I got the majority of my clients originally from advertising with postcards (from vistaprint). I have a lot of information on my website and they visited there and then contacted me. Being on Facebook groups and advertising (mom groups, community groups, etc.) REALLY helped as well. Word of mouth has been the best advertising for me lately!

How did you use the post cards? I just ordered business cards from vistaprint but I have no idea how I'd use post cards...mail them out???? To what kinds of locations?Congratulations!!!

Congrats! I've always had good luck with CL.

If you are going to advertise on CL make sure that you set uo a seperate email account for it because you will be getting alot of spam from it
Mom2Five+ 10:57 AM 02-05-2013
Congrats! Try cl like the others said and there are some daycare websites that you can advertise on for free also

ive passed out the postcards personally at different baby excluvise stores or around my neighborhood.. but had no luck..How did you use the post cards? I just ordered business cards from vistaprint but I have no idea how I'd use post cards...mail them out???? To what kinds of locations?
vistaprint also has a direct mail program where you give them a area and they will have the postcards mailed out FOR you to ppl that meet a certain demographic that you choose.. looked like a great way to go.. but i didnt have the necessary income at the time..
