From your initial phone call to your private tour and through your daily experiences, you and your child are treated to a unique family experience. We get to know your family and your individual needs and goals. Our staff offers your child personalized care and instruction for ages 6 weeks old through kindergarten.

Your child will get the personal attention he or she deserves. Our program incorporates the Creative Curriculum. The Creative Curriculum for Preschool is a comprehensive, research-based curriculum that features exploration and discovery as a way of learning, enabling children to develop confidence, creativity, and lifelong critical thinking skills.
Services
Our staff members are caring and nurturing and foster on an environment that is safe, clean, and warm and cultivate the exploration, learning, and social interaction that is key to a child's development. We aim to provide a comprehensive setting for your child. Your child will be given the correct balance of individual attention and group interaction.
I proudly served my country as a U.S. Army officer after graduating from the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. After tours, which included South Korea and a combat tour in Saudi Arabia, my wife (also a veteran) and I were faced with the daunting task of finding a child daycare center for our newborn son.
Imagine you're at work about to enter a meeting that will occupy you for the next two hours. This morning was a bit of a difficult drop off and you would really like to know how your daughter is doing. At The Wonder Years Academy we have two very powerful tools that enable parents to feel comfortable while away for the day.
Our school was founded by two brothers who grew up in a household where many values were taught. Among those was the value of respecting your fellow man and honoring those who served our great country in the Armed Services. Another value that was integrated in their daily lives was that of service to those who are less privileged that you are.
Each child will be welcomed in each morning into a relaxed, friendly and loving atmosphere. To add to your individualized experience, your family has your very own designated care-giver. Your care-giver is responsible for your child's daily routine while in our care. During napping times your baby will be able to doze off to dreamland effortlessly on his or her Kolcraft Pure Sleep Therapeutic Crib Mattress.

Wonderful, nurturing environment with hands on staff! They're so accommodating and take getting to know families and the kids very seriously. I am confident my son is in great hands when I drop him off. The communication to parents is excellent. They have exceeded all standards I'd had for a daycare. I highly recommend Wonder Years!!

The Wonder Years Academy is more than a school , it’s family. I have been employed here for 18 years and my daughter attended the program. The Wonder Years Academy created a strong foundation for her enthusiasm for her education. The quality of care and education my daughter received was exceptional . When she entered public school , her teachers were very impressed with her knowledge and social skills. I attribute her growth to all the wonderful teachers at the Wonder Years Academy. Thank you Thank you Thank you !

The Wonder Years Academy is a very special place. My son has been going since he was six months old. Each teacher and staff member truly cares about each child. From day one, I was very welcomed and felt very secure knowing that my son would be cared for and very nurtured. He learns so much from being there and really loves going. Thank you!!

My son started going here when he turned 2. He had a really tough time adapting to the new environment as he had never been to a day care before, but the entire staff really helped him cope up. Within a month, he started looking forward for his day at school and enjoys it thoroughly now. The teacher of his class Miss Connie and the Director Miss Carole are simply superb. It is a great place to send your child to.

The only reason they get 4 stars and not 5 is because of location/playground. But, don't let the location or the playground turn you off. The staff really cares about the kids, and they also have the necessary certifications to back it up. I've been other places, and am not easily impressed. They offer structured and fun programs for the kids, from infant age up to preschool age. The director, Karlena, is incredible. Not only is she friendly and warm, but she knows kids.
