Our Teachers

Hello! I am Tiffany Taylor, the founder of The Baby Play Place with Wonderschool. I was inspired to start my own program because I have loved working with children since I was young and having my own children made me want to be home to care for them. I have 25 years of experience working with young children. I have my CDA Credential and am working towards my Bachelors in Early Childhood Education.

My daughter has been enrolled in this place since she was 3 months, she’s a little over 2 years now. I have never had a bad experience with them. The staff is well trained. Mrs.Taylor is very responsible, flexible and joyful. My daughter has develop so much, academically she’s doing great. She is always looking forward to go back to the daycare. Mrs. Macias has a kind heart and kids love her, she has a special way when it comes to dealing with the kids and even with her short age the kids have a lot of respect for her. If I ever have another child I would love for Mrs. Taylor to be my childcare provider. Great place, I definitely recommend it.

About our program

The Baby Play Place Preschool utilizes the Creative Curriculum for Family Childcare. 

Additionally we incorporate themes and study units that help children make connections across all developmental domains, learn new concepts, and vocabulary, and practice other early learning skills.

Family engagement is an important part of our program. Each month parents will be provided with a schedule of our monthly themes and activities as well as a summary of our current study unit.

You will be able to view pictures of your child participating in daily activities through our website. You should have access to them if you signed up as a member on the site.

All children are assessed according to their age level throughout the year. Parents will be given a copy of this assessment so you are aware of your child’s development.  This helps to determine school readiness level as well as a way to track your chuilds developmental milestones.

The Baby Play Place with Wonderschool offers a ton of enrichment opportunities like cooking, horticulture, music, dance, and trips to the local library!
