    Check around for sign prices. That seem s very expensive. I got 50 signs for $200. But I would go with the signs before the newspaper.

        As a parent I look in the phone book, pick the ones in my area, and then drive around and check them out, and usually I find one or two that werent in the phone book but noticed their sign in the yard. That is what I do, so either way you will get noticed.

          Vista print. You can get business card and supplies very inexpensive. Also you can get a car magnet pretty cheap there too! Put your business cards out at any restraint that has a bulletin board and also put them on or around the diapers at the store. Call any centers and let them know you will take any kids they don't have room for. I have a center that refers all babies to me since they don't take babies. Word of mouth is the BEST way. You can even call schools and let them know. Just take them a flyer or card, and you could do after schoolers.

            You can go to Lowes or Home Depot and get a metal realtor type frame for about $15 and and they have boards that you can interchange in them for around $5.00. You can decorate them and make them look however you want.

            I had bought vinyl decals for the lettering which is why mine was so expensive initially. It looked real nice and was easy to read. I think next time I'm just going to use stencils and paint....just in case I have to replace it again.
