We’ve been very impressed with the care and intent behind Wonderworld, Thornbury. Jasmine is doing a wonderful job of creating a calm and nurturing space for the children and the educators are lovely. There’s a rhythm to the day with morning circle, story-time and eating together at the beautiful wooden table. Within the daily rhythm there is a lot of opportunity for free play, craft, helping with baking and chopping veges, as well as time outdoors in the sandpit, natural playground, vege patches and feeding the chickens. The steiner influence shines through as well which is lovely. I also appreciate how accommodating everyone has been in allowing me to stay in the space and enjoy it with my son for as long as he has needed which has helped him to settle in. It was important for us to find a space that was nature based, screen free, calm and with a philosophy focused on the wellbeing of children.

We’re thrilled with the quality of care and the calm environment Jasmine and her team have created at Wonder World. The centre is small and the educators are extremely attentive and kind. We didn’t know much about the Steiner approach before we joined but it’s all really lovely with a focus on play, craft, getting outdoors and building independence.
