This post is sponsored by Wonderschool. Wonderschool supports parents, teachers, and early learning educators in opening and operating high-quality in-home and outdoor programs for children 0-12 years of age. (What is Wonderschool?)
At {510} Families, we’ve worked with many early childhood educators over the years, from music teachers to birthday party entertainers to forest school leaders, and understand that passion for working with children does not automatically come with knowledge about how to run a sustainable business that will be able to serve the community for many years.
Getting a childcare license and setting up tuition bills can be preventatively intimidating. That’s why Wonderschool is offering support to Bay Area parents who would like to start their own preschools, daycares, or microschools through grade 12.
Free webinar about Starting In-Home Child Care, Forest Schools, and Microschools
Tuesday, August 11th at 1:30 pm, Wonderschool will present a how-to-get-started session for parents who want to launch a school this year. The webinar will answer your questions about starting a new childcare service, whether in-home, in a rented space, or outdoors. The free webinar will be packed with useful information for parents and early learning educators.

Who is a good fit for Wonderschool?
Wonderschool’s Mia Pritts described the many good candidates for a new Wonderschool, “You might be a preschool teacher, an assistant director, or a director at a child care center who has recently lost their job due to Covid-19. You might be an elementary school teacher or other educator who has been furloughed. Maybe you’ve spent the last 100 or so days at home with your own young children, and are realizing how much joy it brings you. Or perhaps, you need care and distance learning support because your child’s school won’t be reopening for in-person education this fall, and you’re realizing you need to build something to meet your family’s unique needs.”
