Clients have all different manner of reasons for NOT choosing a minder, same as they do FOR choosing a minder and they can be the oddest or simplest of reasons. AS to the type of dwelling Again no rhyme or reason. Some minders have a large garden, some a playroom etc I am lucky I have both plus pets.. I also live in a 'deprived area' and I do a lot of work via social services this often can put clients off when they start getting curious about the other children in my care - not that I tell them anything confidential but sometimes it doesn't take a lot of working out.
You just be you - you will appeal to some clients and not others - don't take it personally good luck. I have been registered for about 2 months now and i live in a council housing on the ground floor flat with a huge communal garden, the flats is not that great its how you keep it. It wouldn't bother me what type of home a childminder has aslong as it's clean and tidy and safe.
When I was looking for CM for my youngest i searched everywhere for a CM living in a flat, as my youngest has additional needs and accident prone. Can't find your answer?
