Hang in there (if you can). Sometimes it is really slow. I was advertising last year from April and didn't find people until September. Months were going by without even a phone call and I was starting to have my mom jokingly ask me if I had any calls yet. It was frustrating. I think things pick up around the fall when kids go back to school. A lot of parents have a lot of vacay in the summer I guess or time their maternity leave to end after the summer.

I did door to door flyers, mail box signs, etc but I think one of the best things is just to network and tell anyone and everyone that you are looking when you talk to other moms and providers. I found it useful to go to mom playgroups and chat with them too. Sometimes the mom's there need daycare or are going back to work soon or else they might know someone who does so give a card. I hope you make the best decision that you are happy with
