A Hands-On Owner Who Knows What You Need

You’ll find owner and director Angela in your child’s classroom, interacting, playing, and dancing with the kids. As a parent, she understands your child needs a loving, engaging preschool experience, and you need flexible schedules that work with your lifestyle.

Practical Life Skills That Go Far Beyond Academics

Your child develops independence and responsibility by learning to use the potty, set and wipe tables, and clear plates. Their teachers coach them in skills they need for kindy, like tying shoes, buttoning coats, and dressing in their snow gear.

Social-Emotional Learning Is Key To Your Child’s Success

SEL (Social-Emotional Learning) is woven right into the curriculum. Teachers use Love & Logic and redirect any unwanted behavior to positive activities instead. A calm-down corner is where kids can take a break and apply appropriate coping strategies to self-soothe with guidance.

Daily Yoga Included In Your Tuition Fees

As part of their everyday learning, your child enjoys creative yoga sessions. They explore postures and breathing techniques to build physical awareness and mindfulness skills that enrich the rest of their education.

We Protect Your Family’s Health!

Gardening Outdoors Promotes Responsibility & Relationships

Your child loves spending time in our beautiful yard, planting and tending sunflowers, carrots, tomatoes, cucumbers, and more. With veggies, flowers, and a butterfly garden to care for, they learn selflessness and build connections with friends and nature.

Large Muscle Room For Active Play Whatever The Weather

Even on rainy days, your child gets a chance to move and groove. With gym mats, bikes, and balance beams in a purpose-built room, they build coordination and confidence. Playing with giant Lego and the parachute supports teamwork and fun.

Healthy, Delicious Food At No Extra Cost To You

Never worry about packing meals; your child enjoys a delicious, nutritious lunch catered by a local company. Prepared on-site, their yummy breakfast and snacks feature ingredients from the garden, which kids love to help prepare.

TI was truly blessed to find Angela and Creative Wonders. From 6 weeks to now almost a year old they have worked with our son on development, art, social skills and more. They have truly taught my husband and I more about parenting than our doctors.

We've had such a good experience at Creative Wonders Childcare in IGH. We have two kids who go there (4 years old and 18 months). Both receive excellent care and education. They always have fun themes planned that involve learning, creativity and even dress-up days that my 4 year old especially loves.
