My Summary
About Me
About Me – Tiny Explorers Childminding
Welcome to Tiny Explorers Childminding!
My name is Hanane Kharas, and I am a registered childminder based in Greenford, near Ravenor Park and the local library.
I have over 18 years of experience working with children. I am passionate about providing a safe, caring and welcoming home environment where children feel happy, comfortable and supported.
I enjoy caring for babies, toddlers and young children, supporting their learning, development and independence through play and everyday experiences.
I believe children learn best when they feel safe, loved and encouraged. I provide a variety of activities suitable for each child's age and stage of development, including creative play, messy play, stories, arts and crafts, and opportunities to explore and discover new things.
Outdoor activities are also an important part of my childcare. We enjoy walks, visits to local parks, trips to the library and exploring the local community. These experiences help children develop confidence, curiosity, social skills and a love of learning.
The safety and wellbeing of every child in my care are my highest priorities. I follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework and aim to support each child's individual needs, interests and developmental progress.
My home offers a friendly, stimulating and nurturing environment where children can learn, play, make friends and develop at their own pace.
Opening hours: Monday to Thursday, 8:00am to 6:00pm.
Childcare funding: I welcome enquiries about eligible government-funded childcare places, Tax-Free Childcare and childcare vouchers. Please contact me to discuss your circumstances and availability.
Parents are welcome to ask about my relevant certificates, qualifications and other childcare documents.
I look forward to welcoming you and your child to Tiny Explorers Childminding and working together to support your child's happiness, learning and development.

I follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework to support children's learning and development across all areas, taking their interests, abilities and individual needs into consideration.

I couldn’t have asked for a better childminder for my daughter. Hanane and her team have taken such wonderful care of her, and I’m so grateful for everything they have done.
My daughter has always enjoyed going to Hanane’s and has learned so much during her time there. Hanane has taught her so much more than just educational activities. She has helped her become more independent, confident and engaged. My daughter has learned to listen, eat by herself, wipe and clean up after herself, and do so many little things independently that have made such a difference.
What makes me happiest is hearing my daughter come home excited to tell me about her day, whether she has been dancing, going to the park, playing with sand or enjoying different activities. It is such a lovely feeling knowing that your child is somewhere she feels happy, comfortable and well cared for.
If we weren’t moving further away, we would absolutely not be leaving Hanane. I would highly recommend her to any parent looking for someone they can trust to care for their child.
Thank you so much, Hanane and the whole team, for taking such good care of my daughter and for everything you have taught her. She has had the best time with you, and we will truly miss you all. ❤️

My little boy was here for 15 months and has since day one always loved going there. Hanane is a very caring childminder and her family and are just as lovely and has taken such good care of my boy. They go to the park everyday, he loves her home cooked meals and they do fun activities every day that she updates us on! Hanane is not only a great childminder but also a very loving person that we have become very fond of and she has been so vital in his development in his early years and has been like a second family to us. I always know that he is so well looked when he is there. We are eternally grateful that we have had such an amazing childminder in our lives and I can not recommend her enough!

Our daughter Stevie started with Hanane age 1. We were anxious as it was the first time she had been looked after by someone else, but we were put at ease very quickly as she couldn’t have been happier with Hanane and her family. They put on a huge range of really engaging activities for the children and we love being updated throughout the day. Stevie lights up when she sees Hanane in the morning and the setting has helped her grow in many different ways into a happy confident toddler. We really like the focus on outdoor activity and play, which has hugely helped her strength and walking too. The love and care Hanane and her family have for all of the children is evident - we would highly recommend.

Hanane first started caring for my children 11 years ago. There's a big age gap between my youngest and her siblings, but when it was time for her to start childcare, Hanane was our obvious choice (our older daughter responding "That's great, because Hanane is like family.")
3 years on, our youngest has now "graduated" and will be moving on to big school. Hanane has provided a wonderful environment for our daughter to grow. She offers a great balance where she's able to give the children the individual attention they may need, whilst providing them with a vibrant, social environment. Activities are planned for every day of the week, whether it be going to the local playgrounds, stay and plays or a trip to the library - the children are always kept busy! There's also plenty of activities at home too, and Hanane provides delicious meals for the kids.
Hanane has cared for our children over the years as if they're her own, and my children are all very fond of her. I cannot thank her enough for the love and affection which she has given to our family, and I can't recommend her enough.

We have been with Hanane since our eldest was 2 until she started school, and we loved her care so much that we brought our second child to her at 11 months. She takes the children to local parks and playgroups and they always have a wonderful time.
Our youngest has been with her for three months and is already blossoming, her confidence and development have come on brilliantly. The children are truly loved and cared for like their own, the food always smells amazing on pick-up, and we cannot recommend her highly enough!

My little boy started with Hanane after coming from a nursery setting. My son struggled in a busy setting and then we met Hanane. My sons confidence grew and really settled in so quickly. Hanane has a lovely bond with my son and all the kids under her care. Every day my son was out on adventures to the parks and playgroups and loved telling me about his day. My son was very comfortable and happy with Hanane. We really saw Hanane and her family as our new home from home. We was welcomed with warm arms and it’s so sad to have to leave due to personal commitments. Thank you so much!

Hanane looked after our son from the age of 9 months. Hanane and her family are all such lovely, kind, gentle and caring people - our son loved going there. She was always very flexible and helped us out with extra days at short notice, which was extremmely useful. We'd reccomend her 100%.

Hanane has been a full time childminder for our son, now aged almost 3, since he was 1 and our daughter, before and after school, since 3.5 now aged 5.5. Both have absolutely loved being with Hanane. She has provided a really fun and caring environment for them both. Hanane has been super flexible and ensured the children have really been well looked after and developed over their two years with her. She and her whole family have made the children welcome in their home and Hanane has taken the children for lots of outdoor play, ensuring they get great learning opportunities and lots of fun in the natural world! We absolutely recommend Hanane and have appreciated the instrumental role she has played in our children’s’ early years!

Hanane is a wonderful childminder and is now not only a child minder to me but a valued friend.
Her calm, fun-loving and positive attitude is a joy. My son went to Hanane's place before and after school for a number of years and like most children he is forthright and honest when sharing his opinion. He says Hanane is the best child minder he has ever has. When I ask him what makes her the best he says 'She listens to me'.
Now at high school my son still occasionally is cared for by Hanane.
