At The Wonder Years Academy, we believe every child deserves to feel safe, loved, and known. Unlike larger corporate child care centers, we are a family-owned, veteran-owned day care and preschool in Fanwood, NJ, that has proudly served local families since 1999. When you join our school, you become part of our family. Our small-group learning approach allows teachers to build meaningful relationships with each child, provide individualized attention, and create a warm, nurturing environment where children gain confidence, develop a love of learning, and families always feel welcome.

We use the ProCare family app to keep parents connected throughout the day. You'll receive updates on meals, naps, diapering, activities, photos, developmental milestones, and classroom events from our day care teachers and staff in Fanwood, NJ. You can also message your child's teacher directly, creating a strong partnership between home and school.

Your child's safety is our highest priority. We maintain secure entry systems, carefully supervise children at all times, conduct regular safety drills, and follow strict health and sanitation procedures as part of child care in Fanwood, NJ. Families also have secure access to our WatchMeGrow camera system, allowing you to check in on your child throughout the day for added peace of mind.

We use The Creative Curriculum, a research-based, highly respected early childhood education program. Our lessons are hands-on, play-based, and designed to build language, literacy, math, science, social-emotional skills, and school readiness. For our youngest learners in infant day care in Fanwood, NJ, we also follow the New Jersey Birth to Three Early Learning Standards to support healthy development from infancy.

We've made enrollment simple. To enroll your child in infant care, toddler care, pre-kindergarten, or preschool in Fanwood, NJ, complete our online enrollment form, and we'll contact you to confirm availability. Once a space is reserved, you'll submit a $100 registration fee and a tuition deposit equal to one-half month's tuition. Before your child's first day, we'll schedule a family orientation where we'll review our policies, entry procedures, and answer any remaining questions to help ensure a smooth transition.
