Welcome to Parents Info for Salford

The place where Mums, Dads, Grandparents, Carers and any Professionals who are supporting families can search for childcare and a range of other services for families, children & young people in one place.

We would always recommend that you contact us to get advice on making your choice, and to find out about childcare costs and current vacancies. We can also offer

  • a search more specific to your needs
  • free childcare offer for 2, 3 & 4 year olds
  • details of financial help towards costs of childcare
  • local family & parenting support
  • parent and toddler groups
  • details of school nursery places

We also hold a wide range of information on services and activities for children & young people, such as

  • leisure and sports activities
  • things to do and days out
  • parenting
  • help and advice

You can search for childcare by area and find out what is available, but remember not all childcare providers choose to display their details on the internet, so don’t hesitate to contact us for the full picture of childcare and other family services available. Our experienced and friendly advisors will be happy to talk with you.

We also have information and advice and the support available if your child has a disability or additional needs.

We can also offer information, advice and guidance if you are interested in working in a childcare setting, or thinking about becoming a registered childminder or setting up your own childcare business

Our helpline is open Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm 0800 195 5565 or you can email us anytime at FIS@salford.gov.uk
