    My dauaghter bought some for her to pass out to clients (musisc therapy) and she got them done at Staples. Every so often they have a printing special for a box of 500 I think it was. She uploaded the info online and sent it and then picked them up at the store a few days later. Forget now what the price was but at the time it seemed reasonable - 2 years ago so not sure what the price is now.

    Have you made a website yet? I use www.freewebs.com and I'm really happy with it. A website is the best selling tool you will ever have. People read your ad then click on your website link and read more info and see all the pictures and fall in love with you before they even meet you.

    I use webs too and I am really pleased with it. I love that you can track the traffic coming through your site to see how effective your advertising is. I do however really like playfelt's website that she created on yola. It looks very professional and I like the gallery pictures.

    I spent a bit of money, not much only $100, on taking an idea of mine to a graphic designer. I basically drew what I wanted and she made it into a digital crayoned picture which is exactly what I wanted. Se made posters with rip off sections and business cards so I got a bunch of those in the price too. Then she put the file on a disc so I can use it on my computer also. Really wirth the money but I will be looking in to uploading it onto vistaprint myself for free business cards in the future. Thanks

    Thanks Jose and welcome to the forum ... just so you know in general most forum members are very reluctant to click on links such as this, specially when the members is NEW and their very first post they share is designed to take them away from the forum to some other unknown site - this is what seasoned forum users assume is a TROLL looking to spam forum members unsuspectingly ... cause for all we know that is some sort of spamming link that will take you to a site that will phish your contact list in order to spam them or install a Trojan virus on your computer or is a PORN site wanting to drum up traffic and so forth for some malicious intent.

    If you are truly aiming to HELP childcare providers we invite you to follow the rules for the forum and post in the 'Welcome I am new' section and tell us a little bit about yourself, perhaps posts some useful support in various threads not directed at getting members to go to some third party site - because without a frame of trust people will not take your advice anyway and even than instead of hiding the URL within a short cut - just put the whole URL so that people know where they are going when they click on it

Their three great desires are to be listened to, to understand, and to demonstrate that they are exactly what we expect."

    I am fortunate that I am a trained graphic designer and so is HB so I can do all my own logo setups, cards, advertising etc. I tend to stay away from places like vistaprint and shutterfly since those companies are taking jobs away from trained professionals in my field by offering .14 cents a Christmas Card etc.

    I also am setting up my own website using wix.com

    I used www.fiverr.com for a logo and it hit and miss, but eventually one of the designers got it right, I think I spent $20 or $25 and I'm pretty happy with it. I then hired the same designer to do some "signs" and business cards for me, although fiverr doesn't allow exchanging contact info for offsite contact, it worked out well for me.

    You can have your own website from Yola or wix they will give you a good opportunity to have your own website without cost and it is very easy to make an website.

    If you want your logo, business card etc. Just visit www.hamiltoncopycopy .com. You will surely have your things printed at your location by simply order them online.

    In case this thread is still relevant for people looking for a website, I recommend the hPage Website Builder- https://www.hpage.com for your creating a website since it's affordable and you don't have to hire a web designer or web developer to code stuff for you. You can basically do everything yourself. Makes for really effective advertising too. Go brand yourself with hPage!

    Greetings to all. For those interested, I created*a system allowing Childcare Providers to build quick,*simple and free to use websites called circletime.ca* . It's currently in a beta state as*there are still a few minor adjustments to be made, but it is accessible right now to anyone wanting to create a website of their own. It is designed very specifically for Childcare Providers, meaning there are predetermined fields in a predetermined layout. The goal was to make it simple and practical for busy people to quickly get a website up and running. I based the available fields on my own research of day care websites, trying to offer as many of the most popular pieces of information available.

    Just so there are no misunderstandings, this is not designed to compete with sites such as*wordpress, wix or the like. It is also not designed to compete with Daycare Bear;*it is not a listing service or information service (past whatever information you provide on your own Page of course).*

    Currently it*offers 10 different themes to choose from, which will increase if the site proves useful and popular. All pages are responsive, and should work on any device big or small, in any browser!

    Check it out - I welcome all suggestions and comments!

A few tips...

Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
Updates
We expect providers to keep their listing and available openings up-to-date. However, to prevent oversights, openings expire after 45 days.
