Home - Teddy Bear Daycare & Preschool Nature-Based Daycare and Preschool in Traverse City. Teddy Bear Daycare & Preschool is a unique and wonderful environment.

We had so much fun celebrating our wonderful teachers this week! We are so grateful for each one of them, and all that they bring to our team!

We treated them to all sorts of goodies such as donuts, coffees, charcuterie boards, ice cream, pizza, salad bar, a breakfast buffet, baked potato bar, tropical smoothie, etc! We also enjoyed playing games throughout the week such as “Which baby am I?” and Rock Paper Scissors tournaments with prizes up for grabs!

THANK YOU teachers! 🥰🧸❤️

We enjoyed celebrating Month of the Young Child last week by dressing in purple and leaving purple hearts around our offices! 💜

We are excited to share that this Monday, 4/27 we will be celebrating the Month of the Young Child! 💜

To make this day extra special, we invite all families to participate by wearing purple, the color that represents this meaningful celebration.

In addition, you will find hearts available in the offices beginning today, and throughout next week. We encourage you to take a moment to fill one out with something special about your little one(s). These will be displayed as a way to honor and celebrate each child in our Teddy Bear community.

Thank you for helping us make this a joyful and meaningful day!

Warmly,
