Welcome!
My name is Faiza, and I am a dedicated, experienced childminder based in the Cippenham area, conveniently located near Taplow, Maidenhead, windsor and Slough.
I am a mother of two university-aged children.
I offer a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment for children of all backgrounds.
I am a fully Ofsted-registered childminder with over 15 years of experience in early years care.
My most recent Ofsted inspection in May 2025 resulted in a GOOD rating.
I hold an enhanced DBS certificate (formerly CRB), and I am a member of PACEY, which provides my public liability insurance.
I am also registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) to ensure full compliance with data protection regulations.
In addition, I hold a current Paediatric First Aid certificate, ensuring I am equipped to respond promptly and effectively in emergency situations.
I have completed my NVQ Level 3 in Childcare and continue to keep my knowledge and skills up to date through regular training and professional development.
Most of my work comes through recommendations and word of mouth, as parents trust the high-quality care, flexibility, and support I provide. I am proud to work closely with families to meet their individual needs and offer a warm, inclusive setting where every child can thrive.
My Experience
With several years of experience in childminding, I have had the privilege of working with children and families from a wide range of backgrounds, cultures, and languages. This has enriched my practice and deepened my understanding of individual needs, values, and traditions. I take great pride in creating an inclusive, welcoming environment where every child feels valued and supported. I am open to all families and committed to celebrating diversity—encouraging children to learn about and respect different cultures, beliefs, and languages. This approach helps foster a sense of belonging and promotes mutual understanding from an early age.
We follow a consistent daily routine that provides structure, stability, and a sense of security for the children in my care. The routine is carefully balanced to include time for free play, focused activities, outdoor play, meals, rest, and quiet time. Each day is planned around the children’s needs and interests, while also allowing flexibility to adapt when needed. Our routine supports learning and development in all areas—helping children understand expectations, build confidence, and develop positive habits. Regular routines also help children feel safe, make smooth transitions throughout the day, and thrive in a calm, nurturing environment.
Our indoor environment is carefully set up to be warm, inviting, and rich in learning opportunities. A wide range of age-appropriate activities are available to support children’s development across all areas of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). These include creative arts and crafts, role play, construction, sensory play, story time, puzzles, music, and early literacy and numeracy games. Children are encouraged to make choices and explore materials freely, helping to build their independence, confidence, and problem-solving skills. Activities are adapted to meet each child’s interests and developmental stage, creating a stimulating and nurturing space where every child can thrive.
My setting is designed to ensure children are comfortable and safe in all weather conditions. The indoor childminding area is equipped with air conditioning to keep the space cool and pleasant during hot weather, and there is sufficient heating throughout for the colder months. This creates a comfortable, consistent environment where children can play, learn, and rest regardless of the season. Maintaining a well-ventilated and temperature-controlled space supports children’s well-being and helps them stay focused, happy, and healthy throughout the day.
I have ample space that includes the house and a dedicated, separate area for childminding, providing a safe and welcoming environment. In addition, I have a beautifully extended garden for a free-flow access between the indoors space and the garden throughout the day.
Children are free to move between the two environments as they choose, supporting their independence, curiosity, and individual learning styles. The garden is an extension of the learning space, offering a safe, engaging outdoor area where children can explore nature, take part in physical activities, and enjoy fresh air all day long. This continuous access to both indoor and outdoor environments encourages choice, supports active learning, and contributes to children’s overall well-being.
In our spacious, secure garden, children enjoy a wide range of outdoor activities including climbing, riding bikes and scooters, sand and water play, gardening, nature walks, and imaginative games. These activities promote gross motor development, coordination, confidence, and a love for the outdoors. We also use outdoor time to support learning through seasonal exploration, sensory experiences, and group activities that encourage cooperation and communication. Whatever the weather, outdoor play is encouraged daily—with suitable clothing provided—to ensure children benefit from fresh air, exercise, and a connection to the natural world.
There is a selection of resources available for the children to play with all day..

Faiza is a great Childminder who took good care if my 1 year old for almost an year. At his time here he learnt a lot of social skills and has built self confidence among children. Faiza is very supportive and goes beyond call of duty if you need her. I have been very relaxed with sending my child over to her. Thanks Faiza

Our child started at Faiza’s from the the age of 9 monthk
She has thrived really well in this environment full of love and great care and attention. We were looking for an environment which would provide enough outside and inside play and Faiza’s was a perfect mix. The childminder is also really kind, easy to talk to and very supportive. I will definitely be reusing her if need be. Her service is fantastic and sh is passionate about what she does.
