Our Teachers

Hello! I am Leonor Velazquez, the founder of Munchkins Care Wonderschool. Welcome and thank you for taking your time to meet and greet or simply checking out my daycare page. I was inspired to start an in-home early learning center because it has always been my dream to design my own space where children can blossom and grow. I have 8 years of experience working with young children. We spend our days learning, sharing, and growing inside my converted, insulated garage redesigned specifically for your children.

Our mission at Munchkins Care is to provide a safe and happy place for children where they can learn, grow, and play and feel like at home. We believe children learn through play and benefit from a structured yet flexible schedule. Activities will be offered which stimulates sensory, motor development, language development and cognitive skills. The development of social-emotional intelligence will also be fostered while here at Munchkins Care. Children will be taught to respect themselves, friends, family and their community. I look forward to the opportunity to share more about Munchkins Care with you!

I was really hesitant about putting my children in any child care at first, but having them in Mrs. Leo’s care has changed my mind! She’s the best!!

Leonor has made this new experience very welcoming. Our child is not used to this type of environment. She’s learning and growing everyday and we can see that Leonor’s time and patience to teach her new things is having a positive effect on our princess.

She goes above and beyond making sure my kid is well taken care for.

Testimonials

My son was only two months when we enrolled him, he’s now 8months and it’s the BEST decision we made. My favorite part is the daily updates and pictures that tell me when my little one eats, naps, plays, and uses the restroom. Being a new mother that really put my mind at ease. He’s always well cared for by Mrs. Leonor… WOULD MOST DEFINITELY RECOMMEND JOINING THE MUNCHKINS FAMILY!! - Lonnie Washington

My son attended Leos Munchkin Care from the time he was 6 months to his 2nd year. If it was not for moving areas my son would still be attending. He loved waking up each morning and going to school. Mrs. Leo goes above and beyond what is expected. The food is not your typical 3 course meals, they are home made, fresh, warm and delicious! She has a wonderful and upcoming business and I support it a thousand percent. - Nadjaliatte Montalvo

Philosophy

At Munchkins Care Wonderschool, we are inspired by the Reggio Emilia philosophy, which values the child as strong, capable and resilient; rich with wonder and knowledge. Children are curious by nature. The Munchkins Care Wonderschool environment is designed to respect, honor, and foster the curious mind of a child by providing them with open-ended, natural materials and learning experiences to assist them with understanding not just their world but also who they are in it.

Location

Munchkins Care Wonderschool is located in a welcoming, inviting single family home in the River Lakes Trial neighborhood.

Children will spend about half of their time outdoors at mix of both my private yard and local parks and playgrounds. Children need space to run, jump, and move!

At Munchkins Care Wonderschool, I want to provide an environment that supports the cognitive, social, and emotional growth of each child.

About our program

Some of our weekly scheduled activities include visiting the Hurst Public Library and the Trinity River Farm & Equestrian Center. We can walk to both places! We spend our days learning through intentional yet playful experiences inside and outside of our Early Learning space.
