Showing respect to my helpers faith

My new Muslim helper is religious. She goes to the mosque during her off and does her prayers five times a day. I have no concerns but is there anything that we need to take note of in order not to offend her? I would like to show respect to her faith and religion, and let her feel like she’s a part of our family

Other than offering pork accidentally, she could also be uncomfortable about the way we dress, especially when we are home? Sometimes the weather gets hot and we tend to wear a little shorter. But she probably has to deal with it as it's your home. Maybe just try not to discuss sensitive topics like religion or anything along that direction to prevent any form of offense whether actual or perceived.
