That all sounds good to me I would maybe add in their the hours and days that you have open. is it p/t f/t??
do you have any pets
also, are you licensed? what certs do you have if any
i have a lot of people ask me if I smoke so i always make it a point to advertise from a smoke/pet free home.
when you say meals which ones do you offer??

I'll add my typical hours. It's for f/t or p/t. We do have pets. I need to get my CPR cert renewed so I don't want to advertise that. I'm not licensed. Meals-breakfast, lunch, 2 snacks.

To limit the number of bullet points I would put the breastfeeding and cloth diapering info on the same line (that's what I do anyway, lol). Instead of a semi-colon in the first line I would use two dashes (--) or a regular colon. I would add the word "included" to the line about meals.
For a title, I usually have the best luck with titles that mention that meals are included, how many openings, whether the openings are immediate, stuff like that. "1 Immediate Opening; Meals Included!!" got a bunch of responses recently, as did, "Need 2 friends to join our fun, active daycare! Meals included!"

Your ad looks great!
I would remove the semicolon in the first bullet. And this is silly, but I would make backyard one word.
Good luck!!

I would add the age ranges you will accept. Infant care is hard to find here so if someone advertises for infant openings i'm sure they will fill fast.

I think it looks great. I agree to add the hours.
