My Summary
Childminder
About Me
Hello, my name is Shazia, and I’m a registered childminder with Tiney, based in the Redbridge area. I have over 10 years of experience in childcare and health and social care, supporting children and young people from diverse backgrounds, including those with additional needs such as autism, learning disabilities, and behavioural challenges.
I am passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where every child feels valued, confident, and encouraged to thrive. My setting promotes inclusion, learning through play, and the development of life skills at every stage.
As a mum myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your little ones. I work closely with families to ensure consistency, open communication, and the best possible care for every child in my setting.
I live just a 10-minute walk from Ilford station and a 5-minute bus ride from Barking station, accessible via the EL1 or 169 bus routes.
Please feel free to message me with any questions—I’d love to chat and see how I can support your family’s childcare needs.

She is a very reliable and responsible person. When I first meet Shazia she gave me a clear understanding of how she will work with my daughter and she didn’t hesitate to answer all my worries. The very first day I was worry of how my daughter would feel with someone she barely knows, and how she will adapt to the new environment. But Shazia made her feel welcome and safe as if my child was part of the family; and that’s the most important thing when looking for a caring and loving childminder.

Thank you so much for your kind words! It truly means a lot to me. I understand how important it is to feel confident and reassured when trusting someone with your child, and I’m so glad I was able to provide that sense of comfort from the beginning. Your daughter has been a joy to care for, and I’m happy she felt safe and welcomed right away. Creating a nurturing, home-like environment is always my priority. I truly appreciate your trust and support!
I have best experience with them. Amazing service provider. Very happy
