The Progressive Day Care Wonderschool

Our Teachers

Hello! I am Hickma Khanbabi, the founder of The Progressive Day Care Wonderschool. I was inspired to start my own program because I saw a need for high-quality care in my community. I have about 20 years of experience working with young children.

I am a teacher with over 30 years of experience total in early childhood education. I am a licensed child care services provider and my program is CDA certified. I am trained and take pride in preparing kids for school and helping instill confidence in a loving and caring environment.

Philosophy

At The Progressive Day Care Wonderschool, we pride ourselves in providing quality child care. We believe in learning with fun and loving attention for every child. I actively work on developing your child’s motor skills, reading skills, and basic concepts (telling time, seasons, and geography). As a teacher, I balance having a play-based program with offering an academic curriculum for all ages.

You may be working parents or even a single parent looking for an affordable day care option. We provide twice the service for half the cost of franchised day cares. We take pride in preparing kids for school and helping instill confidence in a caring environment.

Additionally, we provide:

• Transportation services, available for an additional cost
• Hot, fresh and nutritious meals and snacks daily
• Flexible hours from Monday - Friday 6:30 AM to 6:30 PM
• CPR, First Aid and CDA certified service
• Tutoring available (phonics, writing and reading skills)

Location

The Progressive Day Care Wonderschool is located in a welcoming, warm single family home in the Sugarland neighborhood.

We’ve designed our care environment with play and learning areas that allow children to explore various developmentally-appropriate activities based on their interests. Some of our favorite areas include a block area (for gross motor skills and problem solving), reading / cozy area (for literacy, relaxation, and respite), and art area (for expressing emotions and ideas).

Children will have some outdoor time every day in my private backyard. Children need space to run, jump, and move!

At The Progressive Day Care Wonderschool, I want to provide a loving home away from home.
