I created a Site collection with 4 subsite using Sharepoint Services 3.0
I have custom Web Parts(it means I created a usercontrol and converted that usercontrol to webpart). Now I want to create a setup for this site collection so that my client can easily install the setup and open this site collection from their sharepoint services enviornment. Do any one know how to do it or if any one can suggest me the tutorial for the same.

You don't create a setup for SharePoint, you create a solution package to deploy your feature(s).

You should do some research before trying to do any SharePoint development. There are a number of considerations when creating a solution package and features; such as where to deploy, as a site feature or web feature, 2010 adds sandboxed features. You won't be able to create the site collection via a wsp but you will be able to create a site template for the child sites. You have several questions to answer when creating the site templates also. Do you deploy with an onet.xml file, create a custom provisioing provider, or perhaps use feature stabling? There are many things to consider and plan before just jumping in and saying you are a SharePoint developer.

I don't unstand this: "it means I created a usercontrol and converted that usercontrol to webpart".

You can deploy and use user controls (ascx) files in SharePoint. In WSS 3.0 you would place them in a smart part that loads the appropriate template. There is nothing to convert.
