A new early childcare center, Raising Wildflowers Childcare Academy, is celebrating its establishment as part of the Manhattan community in August. The owner and director of Raising Wildflowers, Shelby Bruckerhoff, says it is a place that focuses on the development of the whole child and welcomes all children, including those with disabilities.

“I have a lot of kids who are coming in that have been kicked out of other centers or parents are struggling to find a place that loves and accepts their kids,” Bruckerhoff said. “We’ve got a lot of those kids, a lot of IEP kids.”

Bruckerhoff has a background in special education and is passionate about helping children who have special needs as a mother of a child with autism.
