About Me

1, 2 & 3-YEAR-OLD FUNDING OFFERED - SUBJECT TO AVAILABILITY...
Hi, I am an Ofsted registered Childminder and a mum of two precious children (a boy and a girl) one in Tiffin School and one in Nonsuch Grammar School.
I provide, to babies and children, a loving and caring environment where they feel safe, comfortable and happy just like at home. I work in partnership with parents and propose activities to support every area of development of your child: intellectual, social, emotional and physical.

I have a lot of experience in caring for babies and children. My passion, experience, training and diplomas make me a very suitable candidate to look after your precious baby/child!

I love children of all ages and backgrounds and sincerely enjoy spending time with them, seeing them have fun growing in their speed and unique ways. I strive to create an ideal environment where children can learn through play, as I believe it is the best way to reach a healthy and happy development. I have a huge variety of toys for all age environments and life. groups and in different categories to stimulate children and help them develop intellectually, socially, emotionally and physically indoors and outdoors.

I love taking children for outings, to parks, playgroups, libraries, farms or just out to learn and explore their environment and community.

I supply very healthy, well-balanced, homemade breakfast, lunch, and dinner to children in my care.

I complete and provide a daily diary to inform parents about their child's day (e.g., menu, nap time and duration, nappy change...) on WhatsApp. I also provide each child with a learning journal where I record key developmental observations structured following the Early Years Development Framework promoted by Ofsted. I also try to help you to keep in touch with your small one by sending photos regularly.

My diplomas, training and certificates:

I have achieved my Home Based Childcare Diploma and level 2 food safety hygiene certificate as well as many other child development-related certificates which can be found under the relevant section.
I also completed the NVQ Level 3 in Children and Young People's Workforce, which is designed to build the knowledge and skills needed when working with children and young people from birth to 19.

In addition, I hold Undergraduate and Postgraduate Degrees in Management and level 2 and 3 diplomas in Counselling and Therapy.
Finally, I have a current CRB check (Criminal Record Bureau) and a Paediatric first aid certificate.

I am committed to equal opportunities and health, safety and hygiene issues are critical to me. I have strong qualifications in these areas.


Please get in touch for inquiries and availability.

Many thanks

Pinar has looked after our son for just over a year, starting when he was 11 months old. We are so incredibly happy we found her, and could not imagine a better carer for our little boy, who has absolutely flourished under her loving care.

She is incredibly warm and kind, and treats all her children like they are part of her extended family - it feels like it has become our son's second home. She was amazing during the first few weeks - i think every parent gets nervous about leaving their child, and particularly about difficult drop-offs, but Pinar made the process so easy and we were so surprised by how quickly our son settled in. He now loves going to Pinar's house and confidently marches in each morning without looking back!

She provides a variety of stimulating, educational activities every day, doing arts and crafts, pretend play and spending lots of time outdoors in her lovely garden. She also does a lot of singing and reading to the children, and clearly has a passion for early years education. We love getting our daily updates about what he has been up to, and the weekly message of photos and videos of all the fun he has been having!

Finally, i have to mention her cooking... Each day she provides three healthy, home-cooked meals to the children (stews, casseroles, soups etc), as well as healthy snacks, and my son appears to love her cooking, almost always clearing his plate! He definitely eats better than we do!

We would happily recommend Pinar to anybody looking for a homely, family-orientated and nurturing environment for their child. We feel so lucky to have found her!

Thank you❤️

I can’t recommend Pinar highly enough - she has been amazing with our 2 children, now aged 5 and 3.

Both our children started with Pinar when they were 12 months old and stayed with her until they started pre-school. She now looks after them before and after school.

Pinar provides a loving and caring home from home environment for the children. Our children have loved going to her house and have absolutely flourished under her care. To us her family now feels like extended family.

She is very proactive and provides lots of stimulating, engaging and educational activities, both indoors and outdoors and also takes them out to parks and to playgroups.

Pinar also cooks a wide variety of delicious, healthy food which our children have really enjoyed.

We are so happy that we found Pinar and would recommend her to other parents in an instant.

Thank you ❤️

We are incredibly grateful to have found such an amazing childminder for our daughter. Our daughter is almost 3 and from the moment she started with Pinar at 9 months old, it was clear that she was in loving and capable hands. Pinar creates a nurturing and stimulating environment that has greatly contributed to our daughter's growth and development. She allows children in her care to be independent and kind.

Pinar is so cheerful and positive with children in her care and loves them like they are her own. Our daughter looks forward to going to Pinar’s house and is so happy when we pick her up. We trust her entirely in her decisions for our daughter whilst in her care.

She cooks a wide variety of delicious and healthy home-made food, plans and does lots of different educational indoor and outdoor activities with them and we often get gifted with drawings or collage work she has done. She reads, talks and sings with them all the time and really cares about their health and happiness.

Choosing Pinar was easy. One of the things that convinced us about Pinar was how she is very pro-active, honest and direct. We also saw the way she loves her own children and her relationship with them as well as how they interact with our daughter - they are involved and play with them like they re family. It's not just our daughter who loves this family; we do too. We couldn't imagine a better home away from home for our little one.

We ve had nothing but really positive experience with Pinar and couldn't recommend her enough.

Pinar has been looking after our daughter for almost a year now, since our daughter was one, and we would recommend her to anyone and everyone looking for a childminder. Pinar as a person is so warm and loving, we adore her and our daughter does too.
Pinar’s house is great and has a lovely outdoor space for the children to play. They often go out to a children’s centre or the park too. Pinar comes up with different activities for the children to do depending on the season and in line with each child’s developmental requirements. Our daughter has thrived in Pinar’s care.
Pinar makes the most delicious, varied food which our daughter loves. The
We get daily updates on what our daughter has eaten and other key information. Once a week we get photos and videos of what our daughter has been up to. If we ever message Pinar about anything she will get back to you as soon as she can. This was especially appreciated at the beginning when we were anxious about leaving our daughter with someone new but Pinar was just so wonderful and would reassure us with pictures, videos and messages that our daughter was completely fine and didn’t even notice we weren’t there. :)
We are having a second child and Pinar was one of the first people we told so we could make sure our second child can be looked after by Pinar too.

Thank you 🙏🏽❤️

Pinar has looked after our daughter since she was 1 and we could not be happier! Pinar creates a real home from home environment and works incredibly hard to ensure the children in her care are happy, confident and secure and developing at their own pace. Her home is a loving, nurturing environment and there is always lots of fun activities planned and plenty of outside play. The food Pinar prepares is delicious and so healthy and our daughter loves food as a result. We could not recommend Pinar more - our daughter has blossomed and is now a confident, active three year old who has just started nursery and is loving it!
