Wonderbloom Nature Playschool

★★★★★Lena Daggs

Our son goes to Wonderbloom and we couldn't be happier with the care he gets there. The kids are outside in nature most of the day (whether in their amazing outdoor classroom, in the adjacent large garden, nature trail, or field trip). The kids are having fun and getting to be kids and learning through nature based play. They are allowed to get dirty, wet, and to run and play. They hold and learn about different bugs, plants, wildlife, and have guest animals who visit class (as well as class pets). They learn to garden and take care of their garden all through the seasons. The teachers and administration carefully plan and curate each day with new fun, educational activities ready for the kids when they arrive. Every week has a new theme of what they will be learning and working on (eg. caterpillars, worms and composting, friendship, kindness, animal tracks, snowflakes, winter solstice, etc.) So much thought and work goes into giving the kids the best experience possible. Parents are encouraged to volunteer in the classroom, which is such a special opportunity to see how amazing the program is and how much the kids enjoy being there. We especially appreciate the photos and videos that are sent to us typically daily showing what our son is doing and learning. Our son has been alternating days between a regular daycare and Wonderbloom and on the Wonderbloom days, he always comes home happier, calmer, and more content. Everyone there is so caring and kind. Our son absolutely loves going to Wonderbloom and is excited to go every day. We love that the focus is on nature, animals, and teaching kids from an early age to be stewards of the earth, to respect and love our environment, and to be accustomed to enjoying time outside in all seasons. We only wish there were elementary schools similar to Wonderbloom in the area once our son transitions to kindergarten. We are so grateful for Wonderbloom and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality preschool program.

I can’t say enough good things about this school. My daughter was quiet and had a hard time connecting with people. After six months here she changed so much. She is confident and easily makes friends. It’s amazing to see her confidence with her new friends. My experience is not unique. Most of the parents I talk too have similar stories about the growth they’ve seen with their children. My only regret is not coming earlier when we had the chance.

Our son attended summer school at Wonderbloom and we couldn’t have been more pleased. The team was flexible, patient and really tried their best to help our son. They were incredibly supportive and truly cared! Awesome staff, and great school!

We love Wonderbloom! Our daughter has thrived here as a preschooler and we appreciate them so much. The school is set up in a way that the kids get to explore a lot and they’re supported in their emotions in such a respectful way. Being outside really helps our daughter get her energy out and appreciate nature—we are glad she is learning to take care of the earth and that we are connected to all living things. We have also made some good friends here!

My daughter attended nature school at the Directors (Sarah Stone) home prior to her opening Wonderbloom. We absolutely loved the philosophy and she has such an amazing program! Our daughter adored all of the time spent outdoors, learned so much about nature, and created so many happy memories there. Sarah is brilliant and kind and the kids loved her. It surpassed my expectations, so we were thrilled when Wonderbloom was opened! The new facility is perfect, both inside and out. My youngest daughter will now be attending Wonderbloom for the entire academic year 2019-20, and both of them will attend the week long summer sessions. The flexibility of the schedule for both summer and fall cannot be beat. Highly recommend this school!!! Do yourself a favor and book a tour, you will not be disappointed.
