My daughter was in Ms. Donna's preschool class and we are so grateful for her and Ms. Susie and Ms. Sandy. From day one, they created a safe, fun, and loving environment where the kids were always engaged and excited to learn. We especially appreciated the ClassDojo updates -- it was so nice to see pictures and notes about their activities each day. It really made us feel connected and reassured. The class was always full of creative lessons, thoughtful themes, and special events with cute dress-up days that made preschool such a memorable experience. My daughter's academics, social skills, and her communication have grown so much, and we know it's because of the care and dedication from her teachers. We truly recommend this cozy, wonderful school to anyone looking for a place where their child will be nurtured, celebrated, and loved. read more

My son has been attending this preschool for a while now, and I couldn't be happier with the experience we've had. The teachers here genuinely care for the children's well-being first and foremost, and it really shows in the way they interact with the students every day. Miss Donna, in particular, has been such a blessing to my son's growth and learning. She takes time out of her day to ensure the kids are not only learning but also feeling safe, supported, and encouraged. Miss Susie and Miss Sandy are also absolutely amazing--together, they create a nurturing, positive, and fun environment for the kids. And I can't forget Miss Shannon, who runs the school so well and makes sure everything flows smoothly for both students and parents. As a parent of a child with health issues, I feel an extra sense of comfort knowing the teachers will pay close attention to him, assess him if anything seems off, and contact me right away if needed. That kind of care and attentiveness gives me so much peace of mind. One of the things I appreciate most is the open communication. I've always felt welcome and never "shut out" of what's going on at the school. They make sure parents are included and informed, which builds such a great relationship between teachers and families. The school also goes above and beyond when it comes to activities--there's always something fun, engaging, and educational planned. From themed days to hands-on learning, the kids are never bored! I've recommended this school to so many people already, and I'll continue to do so. I'm so grateful for the care, attention, and love they pour into these kids every single day. If you're looking for a preschool that truly feels like family, this is it! read more

This school is amazing. My children have a fun time learning and being involved in a big class.

INFANT ROOM. I give the infant room 5 stars! My son LOVED Ms Lupe and Ms Melissa. He was always excited to go to school. Never cried not even on his first day/week of school. I had so much confidence when he was in that room. Now to what I DON'T love about the school. I have had bad vibes about Ms. Shannon from the beginning. Nothing concrete but certainly felt off. Next, there is NO security! Anyone could just walk in as the doors remain unlocked and there is often no one at the front desk. They claim someone is always behind the window looking at cameras, but if someone random were to just walk in, it would be too late for anyone to stop them from going to one of the classrooms. HUGE safety concern. When we enrolled my son, I was told he would be transitioned to the toddler room when he was 18 months and ready. By the time he turned 18 months, THEY weren't ready. I had to advocate every week until they finally moved him. Everything went downhill after he moved to the toddler room. He would cry every time he would get dropped off. VERY out of character. The way one of the teachers greeted him daily was like she dreaded her job or she didn't like him. I have heard her yell at the kids in that room as well. I strongly believe she's a big reason why he didn't like that room. I transitioned him elsewhere and he has been loving it ever since. Never cries. Glad I listened to my intuition and pulled him out. read more

A truly amazing teacher is hard to find, difficult to part with, and impossible to forget." I am so glad our daughter had such amazing teachers this year. A special teacher she loves and will never forget Ms. Donna thank you for all that you have done for our little Ava R. Wonderland Preschool is amazing and we are looking forward to see our little girl achieve another year here. read more

My babygirl was in Ms.Donna's class who is an amazing teacher, along with Ms.Susie and Ms.Sandy. We appreciate the good teacher she is. The class was full of education and lots of fun activities. Thank you to all Wonderland Staff. read more

My nephew has been attending Wonderland preschool since he was 2 months old, and he's now 3. Poor little guy has had such a rough early start in life and when my sister started the adoption process one of our stresses was finding a daycare (1) near our home (2) affordable (3) where he would be comfortable. Wonderland has been a pivotal structure in his development & learning these past few years, and the staff are so caring. My nephew loves his teacher Miss Donna and they always have fun little activities to keep the kid's minds stimulated. Definitely recommend this preschool to anyone in the Bellflower area! read more

I am so sorry you had a bad experience. I have taken my kids under Miss Shannon's care for 6 years now at this school and her previous school. Miss Shannon is a huge children's advocate and genuinely loves the kids. She may be a little to the point with parents, but always ensuring the environment at school is perfect for the kids. My children did take a minute to get used to the toddler classroom from Miss Lupe, but Miss Taherahandfed my child for an entire month until he learned how to use a spoon and feed himself. I am glad to know your child likes the other school, I just wanted to express my satisfaction with Miss Shannon and Wonderland. read more

We love Miss Donna. Our boy needed a little extra attention while transitioning into being fully potty trained and Donna gave him exactly what he needed! Miss Donna played a critical roll in preparing our little one for his k-8 Catholic school. We are super happy with our time at wonderland and highly recommend it. ESPECIALLY teacher Donna. read more

We as parents are happy with Wonderland Preschool and the teachers/staff there. Our three children thrive at this school and it is because of the kindness and patience of the staff and administration. We are forever grateful for the care, love, safety, and EXTREME PATIENCE that these folks have. Their curriculum is pretty good too and summer camp is super fun for the kids! One of our children was having a really hard time sporadically here and there and they were all just great in their response and extremely patient and kind. Ms. Donna specially, is a gem and all of our children love her dearly. Two of them hated to leave her class and move up to the next teacher(which were all great too). Ms. Donna is the type of teacher that is kind and gentle, but also a no-nonsense kind of teacher that will guide, teach, and care for your child. We love that and her! Thank you to Ms. Donna and all of the other good teachers at Wonderland that make my children enjoy school read more

This preschool is very clean and well maintained. More importantly, there have some of the best caring and supportive teachers to nurture young minds. Their curriculum engages children academically and creatively. Children really enjoy it here!! read more

All of the staff is very nice and seem to really enjoy what they do. Our daughter loves her teacher, Ms Donna and often speaks highly of her at home. Our daughter has learned so much including Spanish, which we are very grateful for. I definitely recommend Wonderland to anyone looking to send their child to a safe and competent day care / preschool facility. read more

I have nothing but AMAZING things to say about this school and their teachers. Before Wonderland my three year old son never spent time away from mom and dad. We were very worried on how he would behave. Mrs.Donna and Mrs.Sandy were very understanding on his history of being at home (only child). They made sure to make him feel comfortable. They would send us text messages and pictures of him to ease our worries too! He adjusted in no time they made him feel comfortable around them. My son has improved in his social skills and communication skills thanks to Mrs. Donna and Mrs.Sandy he looks forward to attending school. read more

Wonderful preschool with a nurturing environment! The teachers are caring, the curriculum is engaging, and the facilities are clean and safe. My child loves going every day and has learned so much. Highly recommend! read more

I'm very impressed with wonderland preschool. These days it is hard to find quality anything but quality is definitely what you'll find here. The teachers are amazing, my nephew is in a safe environment, and the program is beneficial for the children. I would recommend wonderland to anyone I know trying to find a preschool. read more

I couldn't be more pleased to have my son attend Wonderland. It has been such a pleasure to know my son is in great care. I love that my son looks forward to going to school . It re assures me that Ms Donna is doing a great job with her class. Thank you Ms Donna and team for all that you do for our children ! read more

This review is way overdue so I couldn't let more time pass without acknowledging the incredible impact this preschool had on our family. Even years later, our kids, now 12, 10, and 5, fondly recall their experiences and the dedicated teachers (Ms. Annie, Ms. Susie, Ms. Nicole, Ms. Maria, Ms. Juliet, Ms. Donna and Ms. Sandy) who made their early years memorable. The educational activities and caring staff have contributed to their positive development - not to mention that my kids are excelling in elementary school thanks to the skills and knowledge they gained here. I highly recommend this preschool. Thank you Ms. Mona and the awesome staff of Wonderland! read more

My experience with Wonderland Preschool personally has been great. A few minor problems that there have been in the past, Ms. Shannon has made sure to address it right away and fix the situation. She has not only been a great director to the teachers and staff but also has won the love of the children. The teachers also speak highly of her; it makes the environment feel comfortable to be around. Ms. Shannon goes out of her way to make sure the children are safe and happy, the parents are comfortable leaving their children here, and her staff are happy coming to work. The teachers and staff are great. Thank you to the Wonderland Family! read more

Man !!!! I can't believe Wonderland is still around. I am so happy to hear this. I went here starting age 3 all the way until the 4th grade. This was back in 1993 when I was in kindergarten then. My teachers were miss McKenzie and Miss Martinez. First grade teacher was Mrs. krup 2nd grade miss corn 3rd and 4th taught together by Mrs Lord I'm just in awww right now. This was the best school ever !!! I hope you guys still have the big pumpkin the kids play in for the preschoolers !!! read more

My kids went to the school. They had a very positive experience. The staff is loving, they provide meals, and take kids as young as 6weeks. I recommended this school to many people and they've all been happy. The owners take pride in their school and are always doing things to help improve it. read more

I LOVE our Wonderland Family! Miss Mona is very professional, warm, personable and down to earth. Her approach towards ensuring staff that are invested in the core values of caretaking and educating have made our transition to private care the BEST experience. My children have been attending Wonderland for nearly 5 years and my only regret is that i didn't enroll my oldest daughter at an earlier age. My youngest child began at Wonderland, at 6 months old and as fearful as i was, my fears were eased very quickly. The infant class was supportive of my concerns and encouraged me to call throughout the day to check on baby. Daily reports were provided that offered me peace of mind to be present at work, knowing my baby was in great hands. My older daughter began at 2 years old, already potty trained however, they reinforced these milestones and made what can be very difficult transitions, FUN and MOTIVATING for my toddler. My children that attend Wonderland are now 4and 6 years old. What means the most to me is they are very family oriented, demonstrate and teach boundary setting, development of self esteem, emotional regulation, allow the children to learn through play and exploration, but most importantly my children FEEL loved by ALL STAFF. During COVID many changes took place, but the love and fun never seized. The kids went to school fearless and maintained a sense of normalcy when the rest of the world was turned upside down. We love our Wonderland family, every teacher and office staff. Some of our direct teachers have been Miss Ashley, Miss Marlo, Miss Leslie, Miss Donna, Miss Tiffany,Miss Latanya, Miss Mitzy, and Miss Sandra. I don't know what we would have done during COVID without Wonderland. As our family has grown it is with a heavy heart that this wi be our last summer at Wonderland. What i am confident about, is Wonderland staff have been our village over the years and have equipped our children to enter public education academically sound, emotionally empowered, with core values of kindness, compassion and acceptance. read more

We have had a great experience thus far. Ms.Donna has been accommodating, patient , communicative and the list goes on. She's a teacher you can rely on for your children's needs and will make sure she communicates with you every step of the way. She will go above and beyond for any child to make sure their needs are met. read more

Clean and a great staff! Been going to Wonderland for years and I've never had anything negative come up.

I've known this school since 2014, since my oldest one used to attend this school. When my toddler transitioned to pre-K he had Ms. Donna. Ms. Donna always made sure my little one was taking care of. She would always update me on how well my little one was progressing. And I love that. Now that my son will be turning kinder this coming year, he still visit Ms. Donnas class just to say hi to her. Thank you Ms. Donna. read more

My child attended this school for roughly a year without apparent incident, but toward the end of this time, we parents were given a Complaint Investigation Report from the Department of Social Services regarding teachers being grossly understaffed and a"staff yelling and pulling children by their arms aggressively." I reflected at this time that my child's own classroom had seen three teachers come and go during the time we had been there, and still had no permanent teacher. When myself and another parent confronted the Director, she made contradictory statements about what she knew and dismissed the accounts. Later, we found out that the teacher directly listed in the Department of Social Services report was NOT dismissed as she is close friends with the Owner. It's not every classroom that is affected, but you won't necessarily know if your child is in that affected classroom as children are not always so good at advocating for themselves. Please weight the positive and negative reviews here, and if you have to attend, perhaps make an extra effort to connect with other parents during drop-off and pick-up and update each other, if anything seems amiss. read more

They are the absolute best!!!! The teachers are nice, the school is clean. I would recommend 10/10.

Here's a list of things responsible parents should take into account when they are considering placement at this preschool for the 2-3 year old class: 1. Staff unprofessionalism - "Director" Shannon is very rude. She doesn't have parents or their children's best interest at heart. She's delusional because she thinks she does. She talks bad about her teachers. She doesn't take her job seriously. When I came to her about problems like: (1) my child being injured (bumps on forehead), (2) non-existent diaper schedule for children arriving at 6:30 a.m. - 9:00 a.m., she told me I was "nit picking". The childrent that come early aren't changed until the teacher comes in at 9 a.m. If you want to call to check on your kids, don't do it. Shannon told me I don't have to call to check on my child everyday, and that I was holding up the line in case of an emeregeny. Ridiculous. It takes 1-2 minutes to let me know that my child ate his breakfast/lunch, and that he was in good spirit. If you care about your kids and what they do at school, find somewhere else to go. 2. The toys aren't sanitized as they should be. 2 year old+ children put everything in their mouths. I believe this is one of the reasons why my son was sick everyday of attending this school. I don't believe they sanitize the surroundings daily. As soon as I pulled him out of this school, his health improved drastically. I know kids will get sick, but this was horrible. 3. My child was injured various times, and teachers not knowing what happened. When I try to get to the bottom of it, Shannon takes the side of her teachers instead of finding out the truth. The final straw was a teacher smashed my son's fingers in the door. She wasn't paying attention. Once again, Shannon defended her teacher 4. Understaffed - They aren't abiding by the teacher to child ratios. Don't let them tell you otherwise. 5. They have cameras in classroom and playground but claim they don't work after I requested to see the incident when my son fell. Apparently the owner had something to do with this according to Shannon. 6. Teachers are untrained, and high turn-over. Teachers don't seem happy. At least one of the teacher has a language barrier, and I didn't understand her. How can a 2-year old child understand? All the bad reviews about this school are still true to date. If you'd like to message me to learn more details, let me know. There are some deeply rooted problems at this school that need to be addressed by state licensing. This review is only a start to what I am willing to do to ensure someone else's child isn't affected negativitly. read more

Amazing place!! The teachers are wonderful they really cares about our kids. They are always active and willing to do whatever it takes to make sure our kids are having fun and learning at the same time. They are patient and make sure to include everyone. Thank you all for making a difference in our children's lives!! read more

Wonderland is one of the best, and the Director Shannon does a fabulous job with a staff of loving and caring teachers and awesome children and parents. This school is a definite five-star and highly recommended for all ages, infants, and toddlers, preschool, and kindergarten. Your children are sure to receive quality education in a loving and nurturing environment. read more

I can't express how pleased I am with Wonderland and my son's teacher Ms. Donna. Just in the matter of a few weeks, Ms. Donna has completely turned my sons attitude/behavior around. He's concentrating significantly more, his vocabulary is drastically improving, and has overall improved in every aspect. She was also able to get him over the last little potty training hump he had been having difficulty with. All of the staff is awesome and would highly recommend this school to anyone. read more

The wonderland staff is kind, friendly, & caring. I moved my child from another center down the street to Wonderland. It was a very good decision as many families moved there as well. I have confidence that children are well taken care off each day. The staff and administrative team makes you feel like family. I highly recommend this center. They do an absolutely AMAZING job! I appreciate the effort they make to keep the area clean. read more

I have nothing but great experience with Wonderland school. My 5 year old is an only child and had a difficult time engaging with other kids, Miss Donna and Miss Sandy have helped my son grow a lot. I'm very thankful to have them as my sons teachers. Miss Donna has helped my son develop his speech and interaction skills with others kids making a safe space for my son to go to school every day. At first my son would cry every day before drop off now he's very excited to go to school, his speech has improved and his social skills are outstanding. The teaching method Miss Donna applies gives her students the ability to share and have a voice yet they also learn boundaries and great manners, she cares a lot about each one of her students and the one to one interaction at drop off it's outstanding, she welcomes every kid making sure they feel safe and calm. Great communication with parents and keeping updates throughout the week. read more

This school is still running wow that's a shame. This school was reported several times hitting and yelling at kids going there. Both my daughters was going here and always would be scared to the point where they didn't tell me what was going on in school. Both told me both got hit because of either couldn't finish food or couldn't nap. They got yelled at and said teachers would see but will turn a blind eye act like nothing happened. I would recommend looking elsewhere this school should be shut down. When reported teacher got suspended and that's it. read more

I was very nervous to put my son in a preschool/daycare center so after researching schools within my area, I found Wonderland preschool. The staff has been so great form the beginning. Ms. Ariel is always so polite and greets you with a smile on her face every single day. Ms. Anne has been my son's teacher from day one. She is loving, caring and has many other attributes that make her such an outstanding teacher. She has taught my son so many things such as the importance of recycling and how to recycle in creative ways, the continents, the meaning of all holidays and this is all before he turned 4. She interacts with all the kids and treats them as her children. My son adores her, and Wonderland schools is so blessed to have a person like this working there. The staff is always on top of things and they will contact you asap if there any issues with your son. Wonderland has been like a family to me. read more

Wonderland preschool is a excellent school i love how the love the kids that attend their school. They treat and teach the kids with such love and tender care.
