Wonderschool Review:

Wonderschool helps you set up — or simply manage — your own daycare business. The site charges a 10% commission on your monthly tuition revenue in exchange.

How it works

Wonderschool takes prospective daycare owners through a step-by-step process to set up a new program. This means it will lead you through the necessary licensing, certification, administration and marketing steps. You don’t need prior experience to start, but the site wisely suggests that you get the necessary licenses and certifications before you get going.

If you have an existing program, the site can simply support it with monthly billing and scheduling services via the Wonderschool website and answering service.

Not sure you’re ready?

Wondering whether you are ready to set up your own school?

Wonderschool’s 10-minute “just dreaming” quiz can help identify areas where you may need help. The site promises to coach you through it, set up social media accounts and a website. After visiting the site and asking a few questions online, the site immediately scheduled a phone interview with a mentor. We were suitably impressed.

Complimentary incentives

Given that Wonderschool only gets paid when you do — and then takes just 10% of your revenue — we think this opportunity is great for anyone wanting to set up a day-care or early childhood education operation. Indeed.com estimates that the average Wonderschool teacher earns more than $67,000, well above the preschool teacher average.

Recommendations

If you want to provide childcare, but are not ready to open your own school, you can also find babysitting jobs with Urban Sitter, Bambino and Care. If you have a car, you may also be able to sign up with HopSkipDrive or Kango, which hire background-checked adults to pick up kids from school, get them home or to activities, and, sometimes, to supervise their after-school care.

What their users say (from GetApp)

They are responsive and when working directly with the providers to help with onboarding and any troubleshooting, our rep is exceptionally respectful and responsive.

I’m very happy with Wonderschool. They are so professional, and when l need help, they are always helpful and are quick to reply.

Implementation of tech in this field is always an uphill battle, but the Wonderschool team shoulders the lion’s share of that burden.
