Our take
Wonderschool is a digital platform that enables parents and families to identify and connect with programs and preschools for infants and toddlers. The app has a huge database of potential providers, and uses intelligent software to identify the best child care and microschools for children.
This is an important service, as there are problems at both ends of the pipeline. Educators and carers are often paid insufficiently, while many parents struggle to find suitable education programs for their children. Wonderschool promises to solve those problems, while also providing a bespoke service that ensures that children get the care that they really require.
The childcare management platform has been instrumental in improving the quality and accessibility of care to children, as well as increasing the salaries of childcare professionals. It is fast-growing and can expect to continue this way following funding and partnerships.
