Nursery or Childminder

I have to return to work in October and wondering if I should look for a childminder or nursery? I live in Bridgend County and drive so can travel for either. I mainly work from home and hoping to only go back 4 days a week. Does anyone have any suggestions of what they would do and also does anyone know potential costs? I have been burying my head in the sand and now wondering if I’ve left it way too late! My child would need to be looked after 8-6pm, 4 days a week. To be honest this terrifies me and I don’t have any family that can help.

Childminder is a lot cheaper than nursery. I went with nursery as it’ll help transition to school due to setting xx

I've gone with a nursery. I used to live in Bridgend and was a Flying Start Manager for the council and there are some great ones around! I now live in merthyr and our nursery is £65 a day but my work do offer childcare vouchers so it's slightly cheaper xx

And you get 20% tax free xx
