Where to learn to play piano in the midlands?

Hi,
My little girl, who is 6 years old would like to learn to play the piano.
Does anybody know a place/tuitor that offers piano lessons that they could recommend in the West Midlands area?
Thanks
Stuz

Ask at music shops (ideally specialist piano retailers) in your nearest town or city.
Does her school have a music dept., or any visiting music teachers?
Do you know anyone currently playing or learning, who could point you at their teacher(s)?
It would help to know more exactly where you are - little value in recommending a teacher in Shrewsbury if you're on the other side of Birmingham ...
That's great mister_aaa.. thank you. I am based in Cradley Heath and its not too far from Edgbaston
Cheers googler.. some good info here.. We are based in Cradley Heath, if you happen to know a good teacher near this area
Anybody heard of them before?
Ahem. Sorry.
My 6 year old is about to start on the ukulele. Before I engage a teacher, I am going to start her with a book/video instruction I got from Amazon, and then maybe show her some free YouTube videos. If she is still interested after those, I'd be open to hiring a teacher.
I've found with that age their enthusiasm to learn a new 'thing' (an instrument, ballet, etc) often wanes after they actually try the learning more than once or twice.
In conclusion: maybe search for some YouTube videos first?
... little of which is relevant to 'where to learn to play piano in the midlands', surely?
In the meantime, whilst the OP is finding a teacher why not harness the kid's enthusiasm and get her using other ways of independent learning. Nobody is going to get anywhere on just an hour of formal tuition a week anyway..
I'm sorry if you feel slightly tangential contributions are not wanted, but it's what makes most internet boards interesting.
