    I use my smart phone to post pictures. I take pics in the morning to show what activities we did and upload them during nap. I think parents really enjoy daily pictures.

      I think FB is my best advertisement and my parents LOVE seeing what the kids are doing all day. Heck I am constantly getting comments and likes and exposure from our FB:: www.facebook.com/wherechildrengrow To keep up with it I use the Page Manager App on my android and can very quickly snap and share a picture of an activity. I also have a habit of making pic collages of what we've done throughout the day, instead of posting all the pics individually and everyone loves that. Every once and a while I'll share some quotes or information about trainings in the area and I always have excellent response. I think my page is up to 160+ likes and I'm really happy with it. Good luck!

        I used to put down the menu each day but it got to be too much posting daily. Now I just put pictures, random reminders, things going on around town for kids. If I miss a few days no biggie. The parents LOVE seeing the pictures and a lot of the grandparents do to.

          Ditto the smartphone. uploading pics is fabulously easy with a smartphone. I need to utilize my FB page more. It keeps me accountable

          though some days I don't WANT to share what we ate for meals...like today, when it's become "clean out the fridge and cupboards" week, and we are having some odd combinations (that are still healthy and still hit the food groups! but I'm glad I'm not on the food program...). The kids are eating REALLY well so they don't mind. But some parents might raise eyebrows at them.
          Hee hee! Look, I have a signature!

            Thanks

            Thanks everybody! I have to app and I will just have to utilize to more rather than downloading pics from my camera and editing... As long as the kids love it and I can say to people check out your page and see how we operate I think its a worth while investment!
            Thanks again guys and I love everyones pages.

              Hi all! Thanks for sharing your facebook pages. I have a blog www.greengatepreschool.blogspot.com, but I do not have a facebook page for my business. After looking at all of your wonderful sites I think I just might! I have a facebook app on my smartphone so it would be simple to post the pics regularly.

              How do you go about making a business page if you already have a personal one. Then do you have it private or public?

                I agree that the pages mangers app on my smartphone helps a lot! I've actually gotten one (of my 2) families through my facebook page, so I feel it's pretty important to me. And the parents love seeing the pictures of the different things we're doing. I don't post every day ... maybe once or twice a week.

                  I post a lot of pictures and at one point I used to post daily announcements. Now since I don't have a full daycare I only post if there's something going on like a field trip or say something about the children.
                  I'm actually scared to even post stuff on their now since that was one of the reasons why I got cited. nothing bad btw but some for sure some info they were looking for.
