We introduce the notion of self-similarity for compact quantum groups. For a finite set X, we introduce a C^*-algebra \mathbbAX, which is the quantum automorphism group of the infinite homogeneous rooted tree X^*. Self-similar quantum groups are then certain quantum subgroups of \mathbbAX. Our main class of examples are called finitely-constrained self-similar quantum groups, and we find a class of these examples that can be described as quantum wreath products by subgroups of the quantum permutation group.
