When we enrolled our son at Wonder Years, he was barely a year old, and hadn’t been away from one or both of us for more than a couple of hours in his life. It was the hardest thing in the world to entrust him to people we didn’t know for a whole day — never mind five days a week. Fortunately, the staff at Wonder Years, from the director to the teachers, have all been warm, compassionate, and attentive. He has trruly blossomed, and in so many ways: he’s learned to read and write; to count to a hundred, add, and subtract; to draw and paint; to plié and relevé; he’s even managed, on at least one occasion, to stump his parents with his vocabulary (who knew that an 11-sided polygon is called a hendecagon?). More importantly, he’s learned to be kind and compassionate, to express his emotions with words, and to be respectful of people from diverse backgrounds. Thanks to his teachers — whom we’ve loved as much as he has, and who have loved him just as much in return — we’ve gotten to follow along as he’s learned all these things, and much more besides. It would be no exaggeration to say that the staff and students there have been like an extended family, and in the three and a half years he’s been enrolled, we’ve never once considered taking him somewhere else. Our son is almost five now, and will be starting kindergarten next year. I know that saying goodbye to Wonder Years will be just as hard, at least for us, as bringing him was all those years ago — but I also know that our son will be able to handle the transition, probably better than I will, thanks to the kindness of his teachers and the skills he’s learned there. We couldn’t have asked for a better preschool experience, and we’re so grateful to have found Wonder Years!

My 4 year old son has been attending the daycare since he was 1. Davida and her staff are great. I love how they continue to educate their staff and bring new ideas to the classrooms. My son has been developing right on pace with normal 4 year olds. Davida always has an open ear and listens. She also provides great advice and feedback. I will miss this daycare and the staff when my son starts kindergarten next year but in the meantime I wouldn't have him anywhere else.

My twins has attended Wonder Years since they were 6 weeks old in 2019. I now moved out of Austin and i still travel to bring to Wonder Years. Since their very first day we were welcomed into The Wonder Years family with open and caring arms. My twins have always came home happy babies. It Bring ease to my mind and Joy to my heart that they are in trusted caring arms. We LOVE AND APPRECIATE THE CLARY AND WONDER YEARS STAFF for making me life easier.

Awesome facility. Very nurturing staff. My grandson is learning Spanish, Computer, and has opportunity to cook theme related recipes in his classroom each week. We love that he is being prepared for Kinder. He loves the meals served, the big playground, and the 32 inch Smart Tablet in his classroom most! Wonder Years is a truly great school.

We are extremely satisfied with Wonder Years Infant Center and Preschool for our 3-year-old daughter and 6-month-old son. To provide a little background information about myself: I have a degree in Human Development and Family Studies, I have worked for Early Childhood Intervention (developmental services for children birth through 35 months old) for 5 years, and I was the director of a well-known Austin area private preschool. With my work experience, I have spent time in many different preschool, learning center and daycare settings. Ms. Davida and her staff are outstanding. Our daughter is excited to go to school each day to see her loving teacher and friends. The teachers helped immensely with getting our daughter potty trained when she turned 2. She is able to recognize and name all of her letters, whether capitalized or lower case. Then she tells me what sound a particular letter makes and what words start with a particular letter. She has been able to write her name since she was 34 months old. Evidence of a wide range of learning and daily activity assignments cover the walls of the school and are sent home regularly. I appreciate her teachers for their ability to see her potential and push her to the next stage. When I returned from maternity, I didn't realize how hard it would be for me to start my son at school. On his first day, I was relieved to be greeted by both Ms. Davida and Ms. Patti, who were there to walk me through, step by step, what I needed to do. I really appreciate them taking the time to listen to my requests and implement them. They are very in tune with my baby. They let me know if he seems like he is ready to increase his bottles, notify me if they think he is starting to get a diaper rash, if he slept well, and every learning activity that occurred in his classroom. The teachers are in constant communication with me. They celebrate each milestone with me and send me pictures of my children all of the time. If my children are ever sick, or on a rare occasion, get a boo-boo, the teachers are very quick to notify and provide me as much detail as possible. My children are more advanced now than they were at their previous preschool and I know it is largely due to Wonder Years’ priorities and the care, attention and learning environment these teachers provide. In addition to all of these superb qualities of Wonder Years, there are additional perks to enrolling your children here. Whether you are breast-feeding or using formula, there is a nursing room for mother's to be able to come spend time with and feed their child. All meals are provided at no additional cost. This includes infant formula and baby food. In the infant classroom, you will never see more than 4 infants, in comparison to other centers that will have 10 infants to two teachers in a classroom. Wonder Years has been awarded 4 stars as a Texas Rising Star school, which means they follow higher standards and guidelines than just the minimum standards required for every childcare facility. The higher quality is apparent and embedded into all they do. I highly recommend Wonder Years Infant Center and Preschool.
