the little top
Beautiful bespoke family events, styling and fun
Wedding Childcare
The Little Top are the original wedding childcare specialists. We create beautiful spaces for your smaller guests with toys, games, dressing up rails and amazing craft activities, and provide our fantastic team of friendly, professional childcarers and mind blowing entertainers.
​
Children can really make a wedding; however during certain parts of the day, both children and parents can really appreciate a bespoke perfect space to escape and be entertained and looked after.
​
Our Staff
We provide trained, friendly professional wedding childcare staff with DBS checks and experience in childcare/children's entertainment. At least one member of each creche will hold a Level 3 childcare qualification and paediatric first aid certificate.
We work to OFSTED childcare ratio guidelines:
Age of Child -- Adult to Child Ratio
Under 1 year- we recommend 1 on 1 care
1 - 2 years -- 1 adult to 3 children
2 - 3 years -- 1 adult to 4 children
4 + years -- 1 adult to 8 children
​
If you have any children with special needs we will make sure we provide the right team with the right experience to look after your children. We only use trained, experienced staff from our own team and from our sister agencies we have long standing relationships with.
We have full public liability insurance through a leading childcare specialist, and are happy to talk to your venue about any questions they may have.
We always like to give a personalised quote to suit the style of your wedding, the children, the parents, the venue and your budget. Some example prices are below, however, we make sure you receive a completely bespoke service, so please do get in touch to discuss your specific event and childcare needs.
