Our story
At Wonderwood Preschool, children are the leaders of their own learning, curious explorers who guide their educational journey through wonder, discovery, and play. Rooted in the Reggio Emilia, nature-based, and RIE approaches, our program values the whole child, emphasizing respect, independence, and authentic connection. Each day is an invitation to look closely at our community and the world around us, encouraging children to ask questions, build relationships, and see themselves as capable contributors. Our outdoor environment serves as a living classroom where imagination and inquiry flourish through hands-on, sensory-rich experiences. At the heart of Wonderwood is a deep commitment to social justice, diversity, and multicultural education—we celebrate every child’s identity, culture, and voice, nurturing empathy, inclusion, and a lifelong love for learning.
Our history
Wonderwood Preschool was born from the heart of a full-time working mom who dreamed of creating a place where children could grow, explore, and feel at home. After years of experience in several amazing schools, I knew exactly what I valued most; a nurturing environment that honors children as capable, curious learners and supports families with genuine care. Grateful for the chance to bring my own child to work and learn alongside me, I decided to create Wonderwood Preschool; a community where education is inspired by nature, guided by respect, and filled with wonder every day.
