Nope. They decided to go with another friend who wasnt going to charge them.
So still looking for two spots to open. I have one with cherokee nation but still have to send in an application before i can accept it

How much is your average weekly rate? $85/week is really low and where I live our cost of living is even low. Are you licensed? Have you called a referral agency to find out the going rates in your area? I would stay close to the average rates. Starting out is hard. I advertised back starting on Halloween for November openings. My first kids started in January and BOOM I interviewed 3 families in December/January all who started, but the first handful of interviews were pretty much to gain knowledge of what people ask because they didn't sign up or come back. I have had a few tours since January and 1 signed up and 1 didn't. Both spent an hour here for a tour, but things happen for a reason and I'm very happy with the families I have!

its 125 in a daycare center, i am liscensed but we are a small home so charging less seems more appropriate anyway.

Do you have a website? Having a website is the best form of advertisement in my area. It's a big area and many people do a Google search to find child care.
