I had always used baby on board signs/kids on board signs until i done a first aid course and the subject came up, and it was brought to my attention that its good to have signs up if the children are in the car but to remove them when they are not, as the tutor who was a paramedic often arrived at car accident scenes where there is a sign in car that a child is on board and they are often hunting for a child that was never in the car to begin with, so something i definately think about now which i never had before.

I have one for 25 watch...a local initiative giving police the freedom to stop the car at any time if they think that someone under 25 is driving it

Also one that says 'Don't Bother all valuables have been removed from the car' which i put in the window if parking anywhere.

I have one that i got from ebay which says registered childminder with my phone number. Its brilliant for advertising especially at the school & toddler groups.

I removed our 'child on board' sticker permanently as I found that other drivers would drive too close behind us - it doesn't happen much now that it's gone!! We just have a Darlington FC scarf and, at Christmas I have 'my other's car's a sleigh!' - I'm not allowed that one up all year!

I have white lettering across the back window:

Interested in baby signing?
Visit www.Chelltune.co.uk

I don't think it has attracted business but it certainly makes people stop and ask me about baby signing.
