I've only been doing this for 1.5 months and aside from my website, Kijiji and Craigslist; the best two ways I have generated phone calls is from advertising with the school and having my paper boy distribute flyers for my daycare on his route. I have just started and I get a lot of referrals from "word of mouth" from someone who's friend received a flyer or from a mom mentioning my daycare at a mom's group.

I also recently connected with another provider and I am sending her a referral for an infant (as I don't want another little one right now) and hopefully she will return the favor down the road.
