Part 3/10:
Founded in 2016, Wonderschool began as the "Airbnb of preschools," aiming to simplify the process of opening and operating preschools by reducing barriers such as licensing, real estate costs, and administrative hurdles. The platform empowers educators to start preschools in their own homes or local outdoor spaces like parks or forests—effectively increasing accessibility and diversity in early childhood learning environments.
As traditional preschools have suffered closures amid economic instability, Wonderschool is poised to fill the childcare gap. Their goal is to support individuals across the country interested in becoming childcare providers, supporting a decentralized and democratized approach to early education.
