I'm a creative and fun Early Educator, who hopes to inspire your little ones to develop a love for nature and the outdoors, not only by being out everyday, but bringing the outdoors into our play spaces. At my home nursery in Whetstone, we spend each morning out and about -whether we're in the garden making flower soup in my homemade mud kitchen or in the park feeding wildlife. After our morning outing we get ready for a home-cooked meal, and I continue the learning and fun into the afternoon.

About this home
About our tiney childminder
I always encourage the children to be creative and develop their own individual hobbies and interests. Using puppets to sing nursery rhymes and tell stories is a great way to help develop little ones' language skills and build their confidence. We often use natural materials like pine cones, twigs and conkers, to make 'emotion faces', allowing lots of room for self expression, imagination and creativity, using lots of loose parts to aid us throughout our play spaces.
Unique highlights
Piano time
I have a grade 7 in piano and a love for singing. I implement a portion of our day for singing nursery rhymes and dancing to various music from around the world -with the help of my piano and yoto player.
Mud kitchen
In my homemade mud kitchen, children use various life skills to make their own concoctions, follow recipes, explore natural materials and much more - the list goes on.
Garden
Our outdoor space is set up using all areas of the EYFS. Such as mark-making with water and brushes, building a den with loose parts, setting up a small world ‘under the sea’ theme in the tuff tray, climbing up and down the slide and much more!

In this neighbourhood
Everyday we are outside no matter the weather! We usually head off to Friary park in our wagon; take a bus to Grovelands park to feed the ducks and explore the stream or head off to Arnos Grove park to explore the sand pit in the playground. Our local library is Chipping Barnet. If not, we are in our garden, with activities set up all around us.

What others are saying about this home...
Parent
Aysegul has been taking care of my 16 month old for the last 4 months and I couldn't be happier with her services! She has built a wonderful connection with our son, he absolutely adores her, they do a lot of educational activities and baby-led playing, with lots of outdoor activities which is something I personally wanted for my little one. No one day is the same when it comes to play activities, Aysegul is attentive, warm, has great communication and has built a relationship with us. As first time parents, it was admirable and reassuring to see how she handled the settling in period, along with all our emotions and also, made sure she always kept us in the loop. I always look forward to her end of day updates. I couldn't recommend her enough!
Parent
Aysegul has been looking after our three children (2yo, 5yo, 7yo) for the past 4 months and she has been nothing short of exceptional. She clearly knows her stuff and engages fantastically well with the children. She has an amazing home setup and play resources and the children have so much fun while learning lots too. Our 2yo daughter loves exploring the local parks and woods with her, and our boys (who do after school care) have a wonderful time de-compressing, playing and love her healthy snacks. Would highly recommend Aysegul to anyone looking for childcare in and around Whetstone.
