  • Before paying the $150 dollar waitlist fee, realize it is almost $2500 dollars a month for care! For that much my child better come out bilingual, and playing violin... something more than a basic, nice daycare. The cost is $700 dollars more than other high quality accredited daycares in the area.

  • This place is very overcrowded, especially the pre-k room. The 4-5 yr old room is crowded too, but not as crowded as the pre-k room. The pre-k room was stuffy, hot and had no air flow. The children were not being taught anything. They were just playing and the teachers were just sitting and watching. The infant room was chaotic, messy, and every child was crying or fussing. The place could use a deep cleaning. Notably, the children’s bathroom was gross. This place is very overpriced, $2000 plus a month for care. And there is a non-refundable $150 registration fee, meaning you have to pay it to get in or be put on the waitlist if spots are not available (spots are definitely not available, again, this place is beyond capacity). I would not recommend enrolling your children here. I gave it two stars because at least the manager (Mia) was nice and informative.

  • We were at Small Wonders for 3 years until we had to move and we LOVED our time there. I was a new mom at the start and they embraced our whole family and made it feel like another home for our children. All the staff were supportive, welcoming, and thoughtful of my 2 sons as individuals and made them smile always. We miss it a lot. I highly recommend joining the Small Wonders Family!
