Because trust is everything

Trusted with what matters most

Every Tinies caregiver is fully vetted

Choosing childcare is one of the most important decisions a family can make. That is why every Tinies candidate is carefully interviewed, referenced and checked before being introduced for work with families.

Our vetting process is designed to give parents reassurance and peace of mind. Where required, this includes enhanced DBS or PVG checks, reference validation, right-to-work checks, relevant qualifications, first aid requirements and any specialist experience needed to support your child or family circumstances.

We take time to understand who we are placing into your home, because trust, safety and suitability matter. We do not just send CVs. We help parents make confident childcare decisions.
