Our Process

How We Support Your
Childcare Search

Finding dependable childcare can be challenging for busy families. That's where we come in. We combine real childcare experience with practical support to help make the process feel simpler, clearer and far less stressful.

01

Tell us about your family

We start with a relaxed 20 minute discovery call to understand what matters most to you — your routine, childcare needs, preferences and the kind of support you're looking for. No overwhelming forms, just a genuine conversation.

02

We do the research for you

We help shortlist suitable nurseries, nannies or childcare options based on your needs, saving you hours of searching, emailing and chasing availability.

03

We organise your shortlist & viewings

Once we've identified suitable options, we provide a carefully considered shortlist along with availability information and support arranging nursery viewings where needed.

04

You decide, with support along the way

Choosing childcare is a deeply personal decision. We're here to help simplify the search and connect you with trusted providers, while offering guidance throughout.

Our Story

Founded by childcare
professionals

"We created The Childcare Broker because we believed families deserved a simpler, more supported way to navigate the process."

The Childcare Broker was founded by two childcare professionals and friends with over 20 years of combined experience working across the childcare sector.

Between us, we've worked as babysitters and nannies, within nursery settings, in VIP hotel childcare, and as travel nannies supporting families throughout the UK and overseas.

Our background gives us a practical understanding of both childcare and the realities families face. We know what quality childcare looks like, what questions matter, and how to help families approach their search with confidence.

At the heart of it, we're simply passionate about helping families find childcare that feels right for them.
