Our Childcare Services

Nannies

We offer various nanny services including full-time nannies who provide consistent daily childcare, part-time nannies who offer flexible support, live-in nannies who reside with the family for round-the-clock assistance, and temporary nannies who are available for short-term needs. We also have specialist nannies with expertise in areas like newborn childcare, special needs and multilingual education. With the largest pool of childcarers in your area, we know who to talk to on your behalf and we'll only put forward the best and most suitable childcarers for your family needs.

Babysitting

Babysitting generally involves looking after children in the evening while parents are out. Babysitters may be expected to fulfil a variety of tasks, including preparing meals, playing games, providing transportation to and from activities, reading stories or helping with homework. Finding the right babysitter can be daunting. That's why we offer babysitting services in your area, whether you need a regular babysitter or just a one-off. With us, all the necessary checks are completed, ensuring your safety and peace of mind.

Whether you’re looking for childcare for a wedding, christening, birthday, conference, festival or other special occasion, we have the solution for you. Reach out to your local team today.

Early Years Qualifications

Our Scottish agencies are SQA-approved providers. We offer Scottish Vocational Qualifications (SVQs) in Social Services (Children and Young People) at SCQF Levels 5, 7, and 9. Our work-based qualifications combine on-the-job assessments with written work, preparing you to meet industry standards and qualify as a childcare practitioner at SCQF Level 7. Funding may be available through Skills Development Scotland (SDS) or the Student Awards Agency Scotland (SAAS), with an interest-free payment plan also an option. Unique to Tinies, our role as a recruitment agency provides us with daily insights into the job market, enabling us to support you in finding employment during and after your training.

Scottish Tax Letter

This service allows Scottish families to register their nannies in order to claim from a Childcare Voucher Scheme, Universal Credit or Tax Free Childcare. Once we have registered the nanny, our team will provide with a letter that confirms that the nanny is a "registered nanny" and a registration number that you will have the use for the duration of the employment of the named nanny. In the case of Tax Free Childcare, we will also upload the nanny's contact details on the Tax Free Childcare portal so that HMRC can create an account for them.

Hear From Our Customers

Our Team

Martine Nadler - Director

My Tinies journey began in 2011 with my husband Jacques when our own children were young. As a parent who also has a background in childcare and education, high quality provision is my top priority. Involvement in the industry is key and that is why I continue to supervise our mobile creches and maintain my CPD in line with SSSC registration requirements. 

 As Head of Centre at our SQA approved training centre I work with my assessment team and stakeholders to ensure the highest standards are met when delivering our childcare training and Modern Apprenticeships.   

I am involved in our local community and have taken on voluntary roles and fundraising for local charities. I currently mentor a young person with MCR Pathways, and I am a panel member for Children’s Hearings Scotland.   

Jacques Nadler - Director

I am originally from Paris, France but moved to the United Kingdom in the summer of 2000 to complete a Post Graduate Certificate in Education. I taught languages in England and Scotland for fifteen years. 

I absolutely loved being a teacher, and not just because of the summers off! It was greatly rewarding to work with youngsters, help them improve themselves and make a difference in their lives. 

In my role as Head of Languages I was involved in the recruiting and training of new staff. Joining Tinies allowed me to satisfy my entrepreneurial personality within a childcare context that is dear to my heart. 

In my work for Tinies, I have and will always look to serve the best interest of the children by providing their parents or nurseries with the highest calibre of childcarers. 

Salma Mohammed,
Office Administrator

With a degree in Business Information Management, I worked in the business, computing, and administration sector before joining Tinies in 2022. 

As a parent, I know the importance of recruiting appropriately qualified and experienced childcarers who are passionate about nurturing young minds. An eye for detail and my dedication and enthusiasm ensures that only the best carers join the Tinies team.
