Giving you the very best possible start for your child.
Wicker Park Kidz is so much more than daycare. Our curriculum is designed to prepare your child from infancy through pre-kindergarten to enter elementary school prepared, excited, and eager for academic success. After over 30 years in practice, we’ve recently moved to a gorgeous, more convenient space right off of Milwaukee. Our open space allows babies, toddlers, and young children to grow socially, emotionally, physically, and intellectually in a safe, loving, and nurturing environment.

Our daughter Maya has been attending WPK since Maya was 5 months old. Mandy has been a wonderful caretaker we are completely happy with Maya’s care with Mandy. We have especially observed that Mandy is well organized and good at keeping track of the day to day detail of keeping the day care running. We also have observed that Lisette has a special gift for caring for infants. We are completely happy with the care given to Maya.
Wicker Park Kid’z Learning Center has been a great addition to our family. My 11 month old son has been with the center since he was 3 months old. Any new parent would be nervous at first, but this daycare gave us the greatest peace of mind in no time. With the fantastic degree of flexibility, family atmosphere, and price that cannot be matched, WPK is the greatest gem in the Wicker Park area.

my name is Mrs. Marilyn Melendez Rosario I have known Ms Sonia Mendoza and her family for over 52 years. I have always know Sonia to be the most honest person I have ever met and a person who is giving and kind-hearted.
She has always followed her passions and that is Childcare and she does it at her best. Her day care is unbelievably gorgeous, a haven for all children. Take a tour it’s a beautiful, safe, environment for your children.

Hello, my name is Ieasha Smith and i am/was a client of Sonia Mendoza and her facility. I was introduced to Sonia in 2007 so I’ve known her a little over 9 yrs now and i must say that her and her staff has become more than a daycare provider but more so family. The services that Ms. Sonia has provided over the years are out of this world. From teaching my child numbers in spanish to tying her shoes on her own. Not only does she provide phenomenal service but she treated my child as if she was her own. My daughter is 10yrs old now and almost every month she has to visit Ms. Sonia! Not only does she teach and leave the children with everlasting memories but she nurtures and gives them comfort, something that all parents look for in their daycare provider. Keep up the great work!!
