Wild Wonders Academy is where learning and play come together
​
Created and led by Renee, a certified Early Childhood & Special Education teacher with 15+ years of experience, Wild Wonders Academy offers thoughtfully designed enrichment classes for young children in a fun, nurturing and engaging environment.
​
Our small-group classes use play-based, hands-on learning to encourage creativity, curiosity, confidence, social-emotional development and early learning skills — all while allowing children to learn in the way they do best: through play.
​
From toddler exploration to preschool readiness, each program is intentionally designed to meet little learners where they are while helping them grow, connect and discover.
​
Small groups. Purposeful play. Big learning.

Ready, Set, Preschool! is a 6-week, play-based early learning class designed to help little learners build the skills and confidence they’ll use as they prepare for preschool and beyond.
Led by Renee, a certified Early Childhood & Special Education teacher, each 45-minute class introduces children to preschool-style routines while keeping learning fun, hands-on and developmentally appropriate.
Through stories, songs, games, art and engaging activities, children will practice early literacy and math skills, fine-motor development, following directions, taking turns, participating in a group and building independence.
The goal isn’t to rush little ones into academics — it’s to help them become comfortable, confident and excited about learning!
