Positive: Professionalism, Reliability
My daughter went here from ages 1-5 and I couldnt be more happier with my decision. Everyone here is loving, professional and really cares about the kids! I never had any issues getting in touch with anyone and my questions/concerns were always addressed.

Critical: Professionalism
Rude and unprofessional when calling to inquire about rates and availability. If you do not wish for certain customers to patronize your business, just say so without being rude, inconsiderate, and hanging up on people.

This was my daycare when I was a kid and loved it many many years ago. The only thing I did not like was nap time. I am sure over the years the teachers coaching has grown with new developments in child psychology. It was neat to see they still existed.

I’m disappointed in the way the staff handle situations in which the parent should be notified as soon as possible - not in a casual update upon pick-up that she had a “little ouchie.”
Another child bit my 18 month old, and I get kids are kids, but there was apparently enough time to break skin through her shirt and according to them - it’s a little ouchie. I can’t imagine how upset my daughter was and it was only her second day there - so she doesn’t even know them that well. As a mom who works from home, I’d rather take my daughter somewhere else so I can focus on work and and

I posted a review on Yelp and you should check it out too! I love Susie Mama Bear's daycare. It really does not feel like daycare. It is more like dropping the kids off at a close relative's home. The owners and staff greet the children by their names. I can't remember that many names so I am impressed. They know the children's quirks and what works or doesn't work for that particular child. It is individualized yet a family community. Long term staff which says so much more than any review could. I have been using Susie's since 2012 and their rates have not changed much since 2012. They truly

We are more than satisfied with this daycare. Our child has been to multiple daycares due to my extreme pickiness and also moving. This is definitely my second favorite. The very first thing I recognized was the cleanliness and peacefulness of the environment. The kitchen, however, is the CLEANEST kitchen I've seen. That's when I confirmed that I felt completely comfortable with my son attending this daycare. The owners are constantly and consistently engaged and involved with the children, parents, and all around daycare. The staff are very friendly and also professional. Our son loves going and

I am a nanny, previous preschool teacher and a first time mom. So when looking for a preschool for my two year old daughter to start I sure did my homework. I personally love mom and pop places compared to a big corporate centers. They worry more about the kids and the families compared to the money they are bringing in. Susie's Mama Bear is definitely that type of school! When I 1st walked in I was greeted and shown around the school. Me knowing all the laws and procedures I ask all the questions. Questions down to when is circle time to what do you use to clean the tables? All the questions I

I have read some of the negative reviews on here and I feel like they are just salty people lying i have been taking my two boys here for a year and I absolutely love this place and so does my 4 and 2 year old! They are extremely nice and never once have I had a problem! susie is there almost every day and they are very secure with a outside lock and use of chips to even remove your kid from the class! I highly recommend this facility!!! Plus that send them home with the cutest arts and crafts ever!!

Susie’s mama bear is the absolute best! All of my nieces, and nephews have attended since they were very young, as well as my son, and multiple friends of mine bring their kids here! My 1 year old son loves his teachers and doesn’t ever want to leave when we pick him up. They run this school with honor and integrity! I will always recommend Susie’s mama bear to all of my family, and friends!
