Description: Bear Buddies Child Development Center is a privately owned organization founded in 1991 for the primary purpose of providing high-quality developmental child care which offers a nurturing, loving environment and curriculum for families with young children, We strive to provide an environment with a family atmosphere that enhances the five developmental areas of your child's growth: social/emotional, language, cognitive, creative, physical. We encourage children to explore and discover individually, with their peers, and with supportive adults in a stimulating, child-appealing environment.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
