ABOUT US

Founded by Maeva Bolger and based out of Kamas UT, Wild Smiles takes an exciting approach to childcare for children aged 2+.

At Wild Smiles we believe that children are meant to explore the world around them. Grass is meant to be touched, hills are meant to be rolled down, and puddles, well, those are made for splashing.

The world around us has become focused on screens and the next electronic boost…. But it's not our natural state. We are meant to explore, bask in sunlight, and enjoy a good walk and some fresh air.

At Wild Smiles we guarantee that your child(ren) will spend their days engaged in play and learning, in a safe environment, regardless of the weather. Your child(ren) will engage with their peers and build social skills foundational for day to day activity and growth. Additional monthly field trips are provided at no additional cost.

We offer care from eight in the morning to five thirty in the evening all weekdays including summers. Certifications and licensing are available to view under the policy and accreditations tab.

Rain or shine, we are ready to play!
