I know I will look back and see some of the best years of our lives were these years and many of them are immensely thanks to Little Wonders' teachers and staff making our little girl SO happy during the day, I mean this. I cannot recommend them enough because the quality of education, the curriculum and the balanced activities that are so well structured for our little one. I’m a first-time mom needing a lot of guidance and feeling a lot of guilt sometimes - quick backstory: we had previously placed our little girl in another preschool that didn’t make us any of us happy. On the contrast, today, with LW, I go to work with a peaceful state of mind knowing she's enjoying herself and learning while being also well taken care of by her teachers and staff that are like second moms to our little girl and those type of things to a parent is the world. Every step they take in Little Wonders are for the best of their children.Daily process: The teachers and staff throughout the day keep us updated on our little girl while we work. Throughout the day, they’re sending us emails with pictures or videos of the activities they do and at the end of the day, they always give you a resume of the day your child had. They understand that a parent has to be away from their child it’s never an easy thing for us, Little Wonders spoil us with pictures of creative activities they do. They invest so much in making their learning entirely creative and engaging daily.Contacting staff & teachers: teachers and staff are always at your disposal to talk openly about anything regarding your child. They make you FEEL encouraged to share as many details as possible for the best outcome in your child’s experience. There is no condescension from any of the staff members, ever. They’re lovely and thoughtful with everything you need. Dyana, Barbie, Mari and Belen are always so willing and happy to help. I’ve never felt like anything I’ve needed has been not taken into account.My little girl is beyond shy and speech delayed, they’ve never once made her feel less than capable and we’ve worked together to think of a plan with the great resources they know for her best outcome preparing her academically. It’s been a huge turnaround already with their guidance. The staff alongside the amazing teachers (Ms. Adriana, Ms. Alejandra, Ms. Jennifer, Ms. Yuli) as well as her previous teachers from last year that I LOVED are all angels that a mother prays for.I don’t know how they do it but they focus so much in detail and quality. I truly wish all parents had this school for their children because I know how important it is to a parent for their child to be in the best hands. I don’t want my little one to ever leave this school, if I’m honest. I think I’d be one of the first to open a petition to open a Kindergarten and grade school for Little Wonders, lol! I cannot thank each one of them for making this place the beautiful place that it is. Eyes closed, I will always be grateful for Little Wonders for making these moments amazing when I have to be away from my little one.

Truly with my whole heart I cannot say enough beautiful things about Little Wonders! If I could give more than 5 stars I would! Their staff is wonderful and always greeting us with a smile. My son has absolutely thrived being there! As a mom I know he is well taken care of, safe, and loved. I drop him off in the mornings and know he is going to have an even better day than the last. You receive emails with photos and videos throughout the day and I find myself looking forward to receiving these little snippets of his day! The quality of care is unmatched. :)

We are so lucky we found Little Wonders. Our son loves going here. The staff is excellent. It’s like a family and you become a part of it. Everyone is smiling as you walk in. Best greeting you could get in the morning. They keep the kids active throughout the day with the several, age appropriate playgrounds on-site. They send lots of pictures throughout the day of your child. They have dancing and cooking and sports. We’ve never been happier.

Having my son at Little Wonders has been an incredible gift to him and our family. They have loved on him and cared for him so well! He has absolutely thrived since starting there and I can see that everything he is learning is intentional and with purpose. I 100% recommend Little Wonders. The entire staff there is amazing!

What an amazing school! The staff are very nice and make sure you feel good and drop your child off with confidence. They always have a kind word to say, and always caring. Everything is done to improve the abilities and good development of each child by guiding them in intelligent, fun and motivating activities. The whole team is always friendly and everything is very organized. My child is happy to go to school every day. We can't imagine a better school.

Having our 3 year old daughter attend Little Wonders was by far the best decision we could've made. Little Wonders is an amazing school and the staff is beyond amazing as well. We had the privilege of having Ms. Mayra and Ms. Carla as our daughter's teachers and she loved them and always came back with wonderful stories to tell after school. When she started here, our daughter was not speaking much, and a few months later we could not believe how much of an advance she had made. She was speaking in complete sentences and knew numbers and colors. There as so many good things I could say about this place. Dayana, Mari and Barbie are the absolute best as well. Dayana is an extremely qualified director that knows every parent and every student and has a great heart. Everyone here is caring and actually get to know the children being cared for in the school. If you are looking for a school where your child will be nurtured and though with love and respect, this is definitely the place! Thank you so much Little Wonders!

5 STARS does not come close to describing Little Wonders… deserves INFINITE STARS!My family and I were a part of the Little Wonders family for eight years. I came across this little diamond in the rough after a haunting experience with a nanny with my firstborn child when she was six months old. Little did I know, that the small, hidden preschool located in a little nook in Palmetto Bay would be the most magical experience for my children and our family. The owner, Mari, has dedicated herself to ensuring that her staff and teachers are happy, that the safety and security is top-notch, the playgrounds are full of new and stimulating games, and that the children feel safe and happy each and every day. The administrative staff, especially Barbie and Dayana, welcome each child by name with big smiles, warm hugs, and often times fun music that makes everyone feel welcome. The teachers, are the true heart of this beautiful little school. My children started in the infant room with teachers who are like a second mother to the babies, and when it came time for my own babies to transition out of that room and onto the next level, I worried that I would not find another set of teachers as amazing as those. Boy, was I wrong! Each class was truly better than the last. Each teacher brought a new realm of love, a nurturing environment, and specialty that was perfect for their developmental needs. Both my children stayed through the VPK program, which was the best decision I could have made. My oldest started kindergarten academically strong and was referred for gifted within a couple of months (despite her VPK year ending short due to the covid pandemic). My youngest, who graduated from VPK this year, is even stronger and reading!! I recall crying the first few days I dropped them off when they were tiny babies and I also recall many more days in which my children cried because I was picking them up too early and didn’t want to leave! Every teacher knows them, the lunch lady, Sofi, spoils them rotten (my son has asked me several times to get cooking lessons from her), I’ve picked up my kids after getting a call that they were running a fever to find them snuggled up in Mrs. Dayana’s lap so they felt comfortable, my 8-year old daughter still wants to attend LW for a few weeks of camp each summer to see her old teachers (and get her hair braided), Mrs. Barbie hand-escorts kids to the car when it’s raining, and most of all, as parents, we felt the reassurance that our kids were safe, happy and we feel beyond blessed. There are ENDLESS experiences I could share about Little Wonders and I have referred many families over the years and will continue to advocate for them since there is truly no other place on the planet like Little Wonders and every child deserves the best during such impactful years. Thank you, Little Wonders, for the most amazing experience we could ever ask for. We will NEVER forget you and will be eternally grateful for everything!!! Any child who steps through those doors is lucky to be a part of something special and magical. You are all angels. With love, always, The Hyatt Family.

These last couple years my daughter has attended this school were crucial in her development.We will forever be grateful for everything she has been taught and all the love she has received. I always knew she was in great hands every morning I dropped her off. This is a clean , wonderful establishment and I will continue recommending your school to parents nearby. I was always updated with pictures throughout the day and notified by email of anything that happened. Admin staff is always very sweet, attentive and detailed. I want to give a special thank you and acknowledgement to Ms.Fernanda, Ms. Onika and Ms. Rachele. Although the rest of her teachers always showed genuine love and care for my daughter and I will always appreciate that. We will never forget little wonders!

Highly recommend LWA for your child care. My baby boy has been there since he was a year old and 10 months. He just graduated VPK. He absolutely loves going to school! Does not like it when I pick him up early. That says a lot when your child feels that way. ;) love the staff! They are all amazing and you can see how much they love the children.

This is an amazing school! From a teacher perspective, it checks all of the boxes for a holistic learning program: hands-on learning activities using manipulatives, thematic projects and activities , gardening, cooking class etc. I am very particular about the type of learning environment I wanted for my child , being a teacher myself. I loved all of the activities and artwork my son did for VPK. He ended up having a high reading score at the end of the year, as well! I received pictures every day so I knew what he was learning at school. ( unfortunately it’s a closed campus, so you can’t go to any events; but you get all of the pictures.) The only issue was that my son wasn’t that fond of the food( no homemade lunches permitted) , but they are very accommodating and offered chicken tenders when he refused to eat the other meal. This was my son’s first experience being at school, so he had to adjust to a new setting. The teachers/ staff are patient and had excellent communication skills. I felt at ease that my child was in a safe and loving environment. I absolutely recommend this school; it’s one of the best in Miami in my opinion!

Is there a way to give 20 stars? 5 is just not enough for this AMAZING school. I'm so grateful to have found such a wonderful school for my little one.The communication with the school is A+. They keep you posted on how your child is doing all day long with amazing pictures and videos delivered to your email. There hasn't been a moment where I am nervous or doubting how my child is doing and that's so appreciated by this anxious mom!Miss Lily, Miss Berta, Miss Anika and Miss Jackie are wonderful. They are so sweet, loving, patient and kind. I can't stop thanking them every day because there's no better feeling in the world for a mom that knowing that your child is in hands of teachers that really care about them and are really going to take care of them. They are angels!The administrative team are out of this world. They are the absolute BEST! They respond emails within minutes, they are knowledgeable, respectful and kind.The building is so nice, super super clean (which is extremely important for me) and well maintained. It's such an inviting and fun place for the kids.I'm a first time mom so my standards were very high and I thought I was looking for a unicorn until I found Little Wonders. They exceeded my expectations and keep surprising me every day with how good they are.If you are looking for a preschool, please don't hesitate to come here. You will not regret it!

5 stars isn't enough to describe how amazing Little Wonders is. We started Leo there when he was 7 months-as first time parents we were nervous having our son out of our sight! But the security measures they take made us feel secure, and the email updates and pictures throughout the day made us feel reassured. However, it's the incredible staff that made us feel part of a family. Our son would be excited when he got to daycare, especially when he got to see his favorite person, Miss Carmen. We always felt comfortable knowing he was not only well cared for, but loved. Sadly, we moved out of state, but we want to thank everyone at Little Wonders who helped care for and love our Leo.

I get daily pictures. My child has improved in so many areas. The administration makes it easy to communicate all concerns, the staff is always friendly and professional. During this pandemic I feel confident my child is protected. It's been 3years now, and I dont regret my decision. It's a great daycare.
