History
Scott and Jodi's entrance into early childhood began over 18 years ago with a small in-home daycare in Peoria. As business grew, so did their need for a larger space, and in 2004 they relocated to the North Peoria / Dunlap area. From the very beginning, their vision has been to provide the Peoria area with unique, top-notch childcare experiences that challenge the status quo, which they have been very fortunate to continue fulfilling through the opening of The Wonder Playschool and The Wonder Academy, as well as their acquisition and restructuring of A+ Children's Academy, now A+ Steam Academy.
