Hey,

So I have only been advertising for a week so I know these things take time but I am wondering if my rates are too high for parents. I have had a ton of interest but once they hear my rate they loose interest. Based on Daycare Bear I am within the range, not even the top end. I am just wondering if it is too early looking at cutting my rate a bit to acquire clients with all the competition. There seems to be a surplus of care providers in my area at the moment. I had an interview with a family and they were clear that they loved me and the program but they would need to think about things as they felt my rate was too high. That being said they have recently moved and had been paying a cheaper amount elsewhere so they may not know what they will have to pay for care in their new neighborhood.

I am in a unique situation as I am also not currently taking infants so I need to attract some toddlers which are harder to find. Any suggestions?
