    Website questions!

    Hi Ladies,
    I'm in the midst of developing my website! Which I'm very excited about by the way!
    I'm using it as a means for advertising, as well as for the general enjoyment of my current clients as there will be a blogging and photo gallery.

    I have a couple questions:
    1) Do you include all of your policies right on your website? (illness, late fees, hygiene, etc)

    2) If any of you are comfortable with sharing your website with me (I promise I won't be copying any of it, I just want to see what everyone includes!), I would love to see it! Just for interest sake in helping me make mine the best it can be.

    Thank you!!

    I don't mind sharing ideas at all ~ we are here to help each other. Good luck with your site. I am always updating mine. My daycare families are a part of my site as friends and get updates of pictures I post of menu items and or any other updates.

    I had one lady in my area copy and paste some lines from my site and change her playroom to look like mine ...and as going through the Kijiji ads noticed her ad before to see what I was up against when I first moved here. I know who she is and well nothing I can do about it so I thought outside the box to try to get myself out there as my part of town is saturated in home daycare! I got references from my current families and past to create a page for people to read what I type of care I provide verses what I can put on a web site and decorate my walls with.
    Find a way to market yourself- for me it was what my current and past families had to say. Different angle to go with for you??
    Have fun with your site

    I have the hexagon table. Got it around this time last year on the clearance of summer stuff at Toys R Us. I don't have the umbrella for it but we have it in the shade. We take our drinks out there and leave them at the table while we play. What I really like is even if two people sit on one side and there is no one on the other it hasn't tipped. It can seat two people on each side so 8 altogether.

    What I love are your babies and washable too.

    Jen, your website is beautiful. Your play room is amazing, no wonder your children love to be with you. Your whole site radiates warmth and fun. If I were a child, I would want to come!

    jec, love your website. i admire the water and sand table. genius!

    inspiring, i might consider making a website for my winter project.

    so, is webs free? I use a basic blogspot site to list all my policies and information. I guess website is more organize.
