📖 Our Story

Nearly 20 years of caring for Renton's children

Fairwood Family Daycare is a licensed home daycare run by Soofia Nasar — a passionate educator and childcare provider with over two decades of experience with children.

Soofia's Story

A passion for early childhood education

Fairwood Family Daycare was founded in 2006 by Soofia Nasar, a former preschool teacher with the Bellevue School District and a lifelong champion of early childhood education. What began as a small family daycare has grown into a trusted name in the Renton/Fairwood community — one that parents recommend to friends and speak about with genuine gratitude.

Soofia's background as a professional educator sets Fairwood apart from typical home daycares. Children here don't just receive supervision — they experience a thoughtfully structured, nurturing environment designed to support every aspect of their development: cognitive, social, emotional, and physical.

Located in the heart of the Fairwood neighborhood (Renton, WA 98058), the daycare operates as a true family home — warm, welcoming, safe, and full of laughter. Small group sizes ensure every child is seen, heard, and celebrated as an individual.

Today, after nearly two decades of service, Soofia continues to welcome new families with the same dedication and warmth that has defined Fairwood Family Daycare from the very beginning. Full-time and part-time openings are currently available for children ages 3 months to 12 years.
