Parental Choice is run by parents for parents looking to find the right childcare for their family to work with their careers and their family lives.
Of course, you could do all the searching yourself but most of our clients say it takes a lot of time and even then they have to do all the background research. We will save you the time and effort by meeting your criteria and doing all the hard work for you. This can often mean going through reports which have well over 100 nurseries, child-minders etc. and contacting each one. Our nursery, school and child-minder reports will list all available places that match your requirements, are rated good or outstanding with Ofsted and set out a breakdown of what each option can offer coupled with a map link from your home.
At Parental Choice we pride ourselves on the level of service and understanding we give to our clients and how we listen to their needs. If carrying out a nanny or au-pair search, we endeavour to meet each candidate and go through all their documents i.e. DBS certificate, Paediatric First Aid certificate, passport, drivers licence and we also take verbal and hard copy references. We go through their CV’s in detail and only when we are truly satisfied that we would be happy for them to look after our children do we put them forward, where all you need to do is a personality match. If you take out a Nanny search and we place the Nanny, then you are also entitled to a 10% discount on the contract and payroll fees.
Relax and let us find the right childcare solution for you.
We provide our services throughout England and Wales
Please do contact us to discuss your needs.
We understand the financial constraints that parents are under and therefore we keep our prices low, in fact well below those of our closest competitors. We want to make sure that you spend your money on your children rather than on extravagant costs.
We originally used Parental Choice to help us find our maternity nurse and went on to use them to find our nanny. They offered us a personal service and were very responsive to our needs. Sarah Jane has a city lawyer background so she’s very good at getting exactly what it is you need. She’s incredibly dedicated and we really trusted her judgement. She short listed a choice of applicants for us, set up their interviews and created us an information pack about them. If you’re busy and just need some one to do every thing for you this is perfect and offers a fantastic service. We are still in touch with our maternity nurse now as we liked her so much and our children love their nanny.
I used 'Parental Choice' a few years ago when I was working and needed help to find a 'bespoke' childcare solution for my daughter. Once I contacted them and told them exactly what sort of childcare I needed they did the rest. They found the right person (very quickly and efficiently) and dealt with all the paperwork including background checks, suitability, availability and contracts - they can even sort out the tax and pension. Parental Choice were extremely professional, well organised and friendly and did everything they could to make the process as simple and quick as possible for me. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Parental Choice.

I have been using 'Parental Choice' since September as one of the parents at my son's school worked there. 'Parental Choice' provide bespoke childcare solutions, I needed a 'nanny' for my children, and from the first conversation I had with them, I found them so helpful, friendly, and professional. They asked me many questions on what was it I was looking for, and what needs was required for example the hours and duties required, they knew exactly who to send to me to interview, and got the nanny spot on. I only needed to interview my nanny once as she ticked all the boxes!
We are very happy, the children are very happy and I would without a doubt recommend 'Parental Choice' in the future.
