About us
A Home Away From Home
Our goal is to provide a “home away from home” where children feel secure, happy, and supported. We understand that every child is unique, which is why our highly trained staff focus on fostering individual development through creative play, exploration, and learning opportunities. Whether it’s building confidence, enhancing social skills, or inspiring curiosity, Bear Hugs Day Nursery ensures that every child is encouraged to reach their full potential.
As the founder and head of Bear Hugs Day Nursery, my mission is to create a loving, safe, and inspiring environment where every child feels valued and supported. Together, we nurture curiosity, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning.
