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.

Thank you ❤️
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!

Pinar is a fantastic childminder. She has been taking care of my son since he turned 1 year old. He was born during lockdown and wasn't very familiar with different faces. It was a challenge for both of them in the beginning, but Pinar took all the measurements to help my son to adapt fast to the new environment. He loves her, and always go to her house happily.
Pinar also takes care of my daughter before and after school. My daughter loves her garden and always tell me stories about her time with Pinar. Pinar also offers a healthy diet for the children and both my children love her tasty food.

Thank you so much Patricia 🙏 🥰
Unfortunately my daughter Georgia never managed to start with Pinar due to COVID and our house purchase falling through, but in the months I have been in touch with her she has been absolutely wonderful.
As soon as I met Pinar and her lovely family at her very inviting home, I knew that I wanted her to look after my one year-old daughter. As far as I was concerned, there was no competition.
I am so very sorry that we are now not able to move to the area as I think it will be very hard to find another childminder as wonderful as Pinar. She is an extremely kind, generous, fair person and of course she is excellent with children.

I have no hesitation in recommending Pinar to any parent looking to leave their son or daughter in the care of someone who will give their child as much love as her own.
Our daughter has been with Pinar since she was 11 months old. She is now almost 4 and Pinar still collects her from nursery until we pick her up after work. Pinar’s house is an environment with extremely happy children, including those Pinar childminds and her own. They all get on and it has been so pleasing for us to see our daughter thrive in the safe and secure environment Pinar provides.
There are plenty of toys in Pinar’s house and she has a dedicated playroom. She makes a point of children getting out of the house in all weathers (practical clothing included of course!) and her large garden is the scene of many lovely photographs and videos we receive every day. Pinar has a What’s App group for each set of parents to send photos of their child – very unexpected when we first received one but we now value all the images that we would not have seen had she not done this.
Before we were fortunate enough to find Pinar we considered putting our daughter in one of the local, larger nurseries but we would never reverse our decision under any circumstances, even if we could. To have such a warm and nurturing environment in the first few years of our daughter’s life is irreplaceable. She is so well take care of, encouraged and happy (not to mention extremely nutritiously fed).
Very, very highly recommended! Thank you Pinar 😊

Thank you 🙏💙
Pinar looked after my daughter for 2 years and we were absolutely delighted with the care that she provided and would highly recommend her. We felt very lucky to have found someone who provided such a loving and stimulating environment for our daughter. It was a real home away from home for her. Pinar is also very flexible, helpful and takes a true partnering approach with parents. Pinar ensured our daughter had a very healthy diet and a good variety of activities and we were so pleased with her all round development in Pinar’s care. We remain in contact with Pinar now that my daughter is at school full time and the strength of the relationship built during her time with Pinar is such that she still loves and misses “Aunty Nana” and her family and loves having play dates with them.

I was lucky enough to find Pinar when my first child (daughter) was 6 months old. I have never looked back since. My daughter was with Pinar until she turned 3 & is now in full time nursery. Presently, my 8 month old son is in her very capable and professional hands. Pinar met all my criteria straight away. She is interactive, friendly, caring, professional & an important factor for me was that Pinar makes fresh, healthy, tasty food for my kids. Because of this, my daughter has been brought up loving her fruit, veg, fish and meat and is not a fussy eater. Pinar treats my kids like her own and does so many wonderful activities with them. She helps them grow into amazing kids who have confidence in themselves because of it. She guides us into doing the right things for our kids at the all important stepping stones in their lives. Pinars developmental reports are so informative and detailed. I would recommend Pinar in a heartbeat. Thanks Pinar for being the best childminder for my kids.
