Three Bears Childcare

"We love this daycare. Stacey and her team do a wonderful job teaching the kids colors, letters, songs. Our son loves their food, has a great time, and always learns something new."

"I can’t say enough good things about Three Bears Childcare (and their sister childcare, Garden Daycare). The director, Stacey and her team are so about children and their development and it shows! I had our oldest (who’s 6 now) there and through their Reggio Emelia inspired approach, despite having since been in only language immersion programs, remembers her ABCs, songs, etc. I now have our youngest there (who’s one) and she is so excited at drop off, it warms my heart. I highly recommend Three Bears Childcare - they’re more than a place to send your kids, they become family."

"Our daughter has a tendency to have separation anxiety, not only for the first transition to daycare but also after a long trip, or winter break. Whenever that comes up, Stacey is always there for us. She pays close attention to our daughter, gives her extra hugs, and thinks with us about little things that help for her feel comfortable, so that in spite of her tendency for anxiety our daughter becomes happy again quickly. We are always so happy to see the frequent pictures of her smiling and doing art projects or circle time with friends. Our daughter is shy and on the quiet side and can sometimes go into her own world. When we were sending her to our previous daycare center almost all the pictures we got were of her playing alone with some toys, which we guess is because it’s easy and convenient for teachers to leave her alone. However at The Three Bears almost all pictures and videos we get are the opposite! Now she is always in groups and playing with her friends with lots of smiles even though we know she still has a tendency to be quiet. This is because they are so warm and encouraging to include her and our daughter just loves the people there and the environment! Their support for us goes beyond the time when we’re at daycare - they really treat us like family! When we were going on our first long international flight, Stacey and mama Vika prepared lots of her favorite foods and even packed art projects for the plane which helped us a lot. Perhaps most importantly though, they know our daughter really well which lets them be so nurturing to her. They noticed lots of her strengths without us telling them and they really celebrate who she is. When we told them our concern about a certain area of her development, they were right with us and encouraging and nurturing her in ways that worked perfectly. We are so lucky to have found The Three Bears! We can really see the positive impact Stacey and Vika and their teaching assistants have made on our daughter’s life!"
