The Playful Wonders After School Program provides a safe, happy, caring and wholesome environment for children between five and ten years of age. This program was started in September 1986 by Mary O'Connell, a retired certified teacher. She realized that there was a great need for quality after school care in the Pelham area. Most of the children who attend this program have parents that work full time. We also cater to your individual needs with flexible scheduling.

Common questions

The answers people ask us for most often.

How do I contact a provider I found here?

In most cases the provider’s direct number is included in their listing. When it is not, we list the number of the Child Care Licensing Program — you may call that number for more information, or search for the provider online.

Will ChildcareCenter pass a message on to a provider for me?

No. ChildcareCenter only provides information, so enrolment questions, tuition questions and job enquiries need to go to the provider directly using the contact details on their listing. We cannot forward them and we cannot share contact details a provider has not published.

I run a daycare — how do I correct or remove my listing?

Use suggest an update on your listing to correct any detail, or claim the listing to manage it yourself. If you have closed or no longer provide care, contact us and we will update the listing to show that.
