Testimonials

James reviewed on 6/20/2023

Tyresha is a great babysitter and I highly recommend her. My wife and I needed a sitter on the day of and she came through. She is very experience with children having years of experience working in preschools and being in the process of starting her own. She did really well with our 2 year-old daughter and did a lot of little things which attests to her skills with kids. She is also a mom of a teen and preteen so I am sure she is wonderful with kids of all ages. She’s Great!

Philosophy

Blue Bear is a play-based childcare. Children learn through play and can develop skills that they will use for the rest of their lives. Social skills are developed through children playing, communicating and working together. While playing, children are learning everyday things such as manners, empathy and patience without even realizing it.

Location

Our home is in beautiful neighborhood where we all look out for one another. I am located next to a Will C Wood High, Paden Park/Elementary school and as well as another daycare. The park is within 3 blocks from my home.

About our program

Blue Bear Home Childcare is a play-based, mixed-aged childcare for ages 0-5 years. Through play and with the use of educational activities, children learn the various skills that they will need throughout their lives. The benefits of play in early childhood education (ECE) are endless.

Blue Bear is more than a childcare, it is a family. This loving in home childcare provides fun, play-based learning and has an expansive collection of activities, toys, books and games. We believe that children learn and grow best when they are in a safe and loving environment and when their needs as individuals are understood and met. We encourage children to communicate, work together, and above all, take care of one another. We look forward to a long and prosperous relationship with your child and family.
