Philosophy

At Mari’s Seaside Wonderschool, we learn by laughing, being silly, and exploring. Our program is child-centered, so our schedule is based on what most interests the children and engages them to learn. Children feel loved and comfortable to express themselves while in our program.

Location

We are located in a neighborhood in LA County, close to the 405. Having time outside each day is important for a child’s growth and development. We have a backyard where kids get to play outdoors.

About our program

Our day-to-day activities are based on the children’s interests. As providers, we are here to encourage them to ask questions, use their imaginations, and follow their hearts. We aim to build relationships with the kids to where they feel completely at home with us.

Cooperation and social skills are important in our program as well; we help children learn to share, be polite with one another, and learn from each other every day.

We serve fresh, homemade meals sponsored by a government food program. We only cook healthy and nutritious ingredients and make meals fresh every single day!
