This recent article from The Baltimore Sun takes a closer look at the systemic challenges facing Maryland’s early childhood education sector.

Wonders creates classroom communities that are welcoming, respectful, and equitable. This philosophy extends to the families in our programs, as we actively cultivate connection between home and school.
The purpose of the Safe Space Policy is to ensure our services remain accessible to families who need them and to preserve the wellbeing of our staff and the children in our care, while complying with the law. To accomplish these goals, we believe it is essential to provide clear protocols for staff in case of immigration or other law enforcement actions at Wonders locations. These protocols are not intended to interfere with lawful federal immigration enforcement and are not political in nature.
Wonders was featured in an article written by journalist, Rebecca Gale, “Nurturing New Moms: Child Care Centers are Becoming a New Frontier for Postpartum Support,” which was published on page 172 of the May/June issue of Bethesda Magazine. The article highlights the recent post-partum training Wonders Early Learning educators received by Postpartum Support International (PSI), to provide Wonders educators with insight on how to recognize signs of postpartum mood disorders and provide resources that can be shared with families. Liza Pringle, Wonders Early Learning Curriculum and Instruction Specialist, noted, “We can take this on. Parents can know they aren’t alone. We just need to be informed so we know the next steps to give them help.
