If you intend to promote yourself via the internet, I suggest adding to your chosen name:

Twinkle Toes Childcare

includes the 'keyword' childcare, which could help when parents search the internet. According to search engine stats, Child Care gets more searches than Childcare, so even consider spliting the word, or having as Child-Care.

Is there anything distinctive about your house or garden or road?

What about Niks @(and the first half of your postcode)

What about a favourite animal with Nik's above or below it.

Would you have matching stationary? House sign? tee shirts for you to wear?
