Preschool & Childcare Center Serving Inver Grove Heights & Eagan, MN

Welcome to Creative Wonders Childcare & Preschool, we’re so happy to have you.

Even before I got into childcare, my passion was bringing people together and putting smiles on faces. When I ran team-building activities in the corporate world, my coworkers always told me I should take my enthusiasm to work with children. As a mom with 3 kids at home, I opened a home daycare in 2012 and discovered my friends had been right—this is my calling!

As Creative Wonders has expanded and grown, first to Inver Grove Heights in 2015 and then to Eagan in 2017, my mission has remained the same:

To build a positive and growing relationship with families and provide high-quality early childhood education and care that contributes to children’s social-emotional, cognitive, communicative, and physical development.

As a parent, I understand the ups and downs, the joys and the trials, and I’m here to help.

Come and talk to us about your childcare needs.
