A childminder in Warrington and Wigan is a brilliant childcare option, thanks to their flexibility, locality and affordability

Our quality assured tiney childminders are located in homes all across Warrington and Wigan, so it’s easy to find a childminder near you. As all childminders are home based, you’re more likely to find them in residential areas unlike some nurseries. Childminders also offer Warrington and Wigan parents smaller adult to child numbers than packed local nurseries, meaning children benefit from the same high quality care, but in family style home from home environments. Plus, unlike a local nursery, childminders can offer wraparound care for school age children and are more likely to be able to meet the specific needs of busy Warrington and Wigan families.

What are my options for childcare in Warrington and Wigan?

Warrington and Wigan parents have 3 main childcare options to choose from - nanny, nursery or childminder. Only childminders and nurseries are regulated forms of childcare - meaning they are inspected by either Ofsted, or an Ofsted approved Childminder Agency (like tiney). Just like nurseries, childminders are trained to deliver the EYFS statutory framework and are regularly inspected to ensure standards are being met. Tiney childminders are also inspected (quality assured) yearly, more frequently than any other childcare type, meaning peace of mind for families that choose to work with them. In terms of location, all childminders operate from their own homes and will look after a small number of local children. Whatever option you choose, the table below will help you find the childcare choice that’s right for you!

Common FAQs

Is a childminder cheaper than a nursery?

On average childminders in Warrington and Wigan are cheaper than Nurseries. Rates vary by location and services offered, but in almost every area you’ll find a tiney childminder that offers a great combination of quality and affordability when compared with local nurseries.

Do you need qualifications to be a childminder in the UK?

There's no formal childcare qualification needed to be a childminder in England, but childminders do need other qualifications and checks. As regulated childcare professionals any registered childminder in England must undergo stringent background and safety checks, including any members of their household over the age of 16. At tiney, all our childminders across England are also trained to high standards - meeting our 'trained by tiney' quality bar, enabling them to deliver the EYFS statutory framework and having qualifications in food hygiene, and Paediatric first aid.

What are the benefits of using a childminder?

tiney childminders provide extra benefits to parents over a typical Ofsted registered childminder, with more frequent quality assurance visits, and the benefit of the tiney app for families. In Warrington and Wigan, childminders are also beneficial to families due to their convenient locations across the region, and their flexibility. Many families find that the family style homes of childminders, combined with the smaller blended age groups of children who attend the settings, are important benefits over local nurseries.
