Am I right in thinking that I'm not entitled?

Hello
I currently earn £28,000 per year and my wife earns £10,000 per year. As she takes our 1 Year old Baby to work (she works as a Nanny) we do not pay child care costs although she has to take a job with a reduced income because she takes the baby.
Does that mean that we are neither entitled to Working Tax credits or Child Tax credits.
Many thanks in advance.
