Quickly that fear went away and I feel so lucky to have found such a caring and warm environment for him each day. Bouchra is extremely responsive, she sends us pictures and updates throughout the day. At the end of the day, she also sends us information on what he ate, when he napped and if he pooped. She cooks delicious and nutritious meals for him and he gets lots of outdoor play time. We couldn't be happier with her caring for our baby boy. If she has availability JUMP on this opportunity! She really is a GEM!

My daughter started here at 16 months, and Anies -- the owner -- took truly wonderful care of her…read more We began very slowly: one hour a day, then two, letting her adjust at her own pace. She cried for the first two weeks, which is completely normal at that age, but Anies met every wobble with calm patience and genuine kindness. That gentle transition paid off. Now she walks through the door without even looking back, completely confident, and she has never cried again. Most importantly, I feel she is truly safe there, and that peace of mind is everything. The kids also enjoy genuinely fun and enriching activities: art projects, music time, and even visits from animals. It's a place where learning and play blend beautifully. The environment is warm, attentive, and personal. It's clear that the children are cared for, not simply supervised. Anies really understands them. I highly recommend this daycare to any parent looking for a nurturing, thoughtful, and safe place for their child.

The program is truly special--weekly animal classes, music, dance, and art activities that enrich the children and help them grow in so many ways. As someone who speaks several languages, the language aspect was very important to me. I've seen a big difference--my children started to understand and speak a little French in a short time. Every day at 10:00 AM, they have a structured learning session where they learn colors, numbers, and the alphabet. After just three months, the progress was amazing. The food is kosher, organic, fresh, and delicious--homemade meals that I would happily eat myself. I highly recommend this daycare to any parent looking for a warm, loving, and professional environment for their children

Our baby started at Little Bear at 6 months and stayed until his 3rd birthday. It was a wonderful…read moreexperience for all of us. He learned so much and ate so well and had such loving care the whole time. Elena is so expert at taking care of the kids and Jackie has so many fun creative ideas for activities. Every kids birthday was extra special and they posted lots of photos so we always knew what they were doing. Communication is very frequent and clear. During the Covid pandemic we felt that our kid was very safe and protected. Everyone at Little Bears Daycare was careful and kept the kids safe but not scared. The home location is on a quiet residential street and picking up and dropping off is very easy. They have lots of outdoor space and play equipment. Our kid ate a variety of delicious lunches and snacks and they take a nap every afternoon. At the end of every day my kid was tired and happy and came home with a clean diaper. That is exactly what we wanted from daycare.

There are not enough stars to rate Little Bears Child Care…read more My grandson started Little Bears when he was 7 months old and I am continually impressed by Jackie and Elena. He loves them both and since the beginning was always happy to be there. Now that he is almost 2, he runs in when he arrives, always welcomed by Elena and her warm smile and on the way home, talks about the day, his friends Jackie, Elena and the kids. I am a child development specialist who worked with family child care providers for over 30 years and this child care can be an educational model for Family Child Care Home/Preschool. Jackie and Elena are loving, kind, professional and fun. They provide an environment that is welcoming, loving, safe, enriching and developmentally appropriate. They offer a variety of activities that are tailored for each age group and their developmental stage. When I look at the photos that they post daily I am so impressed by how intentional each activity is. They set up activities that each child can engage in her own level and each activity covers several skills. Kids get to engage in dramatic play daily which helps them make sense of the adult world, whether they cook in the pretend dramatic area kitchen or participate in a real cooking activity that later they get to eat. Painting a big box that is going to become a car they can pretend to ride. They get to peel tape from the letters of their name which not only exposes the child to their name but strengthens their fine motor skills by pooling the tape. In a recent activity they made circular holes in a large box, colored the edges of each circle with another color and had colorful ball to put in the hole. The infants enjoyed playing with the ball and drop the ball inside. The older toddlers where able to sort the balls and drop them in the matching-colored circle. This activity for example offers so many learning opportunities while having fun; language, matching , sorting (foundation for Math) , fine motor skills, language development and social skills. (waiting for a turn and having fun with their peers ) I love the fact that Jackie and Elena choose to have 6 children even though they can have a license for a larger group. Having 6 children with only 2 infants and 4 toddlers allows for individual attention. Any family will be lucky to join Little Bears.

Knowing Ryan was supported and cared for each day gave us great peace of mind, and we could see the positive impact this place had on his growth and development. We are very grateful for our time here and will always look back on it with fond memories. Thank you to the entire staff for the wonderful care you provide.

Mariama sends us updates and pictures throughout the day to let us know how our boy is getting on. You can clearly tell she is devoted and loves what she does. She is amazing with kids - comes up with creative ideas of stuff for them to do. Her assistant, Céline, is just as sweet and great with kids. They're just really genuine people. You'd like to think your child is in the best of care when you send him off to daycare, but you can never really know. However, with Mariama, when we go pick our son up at the end of the day, we always see her being very hands on and interactive, sitting down playing with our son before they notice we are even there. So we know! And we appreciate you so much, Mariama! I want to tell every mom in West LA how amazing she is and what an amazing daycare she has started, but then again we want her all to ourselves! The French aspect is also a huge plus for us. The daycare is clean and lots of toys for the kids to play with and an outdoor area with slides etc. Lastly, Mariama prepares a variety of healthy food for our growing boy! Couldn't rate this place any higher!

I don't mention specific staff members names because all of them are amazing. In the first day they even assigned one teacher to each child to help the children acclimate.

The place is beautifully designed. Very high end clean design it's just fun to step in there. I bought a book about high end toys and furnitures for children, and was impressed to find many of the items from the book in Bumo. Highly recommended !!

I honestly feel like we hit the jackpot finding Hanna and her wonderful daycare. Finding the right…read moreplace for your child is one of the hardest things a parent does, and from day one, I knew we were in the best possible hands. We started when my son was just five months old and have been with Hanna through his entire first year of care, right up to 13 months now, and the experience has been nothing short of amazing. What truly sets this place apart is Hanna herself. She is so loving--it radiates from her! My son absolutely adores her, and you can genuinely see that the feeling is completely mutual; she loves him right back. That feeling of secure, reciprocal affection is priceless for a parent. I never have to worry while I'm at work because I know he is safe, happy, and incredibly well-cared for. It's such a relief to know he's in such a nurturing environment. Because of her consistent care, he's been hitting all his milestones right on track - crawling, pointing, clapping, walking, etc.! Hanna is also meticulous about the details that matter most: she always makes sure he finishes all his milk bottles and food, which is a huge win for us! In this world, we often hear that "it takes a village," and we are so incredibly fortunate to have Hanna as a vital, loving member of ours during these crucial early months. If you are looking for a daycare that offers genuine warmth, dedicated care, and peace of mind, look no further. We feel so lucky to have found her!

I will forever be grateful to Hanna. My daughter was with her from 9 months old to 25 months old,…read moreand in that time, she became so much more than a caregiver - she became a source of love, comfort, and joy. Hanna has a truly special way of caring for children as if they were her own. I always felt completely at peace leaving my little one with her, knowing she was not only safe but deeply loved. My daughter adored her right back! Under Hanna's loving care, my daughter blossomed. She learned to walk, talk, sing her ABCs, count, and color. Hanna's attention to each child's individual needs and interests is remarkable. She tailors daily activities to help them grow and feed their interests. We will miss Hanna dearly as we move on to preschool. She has been such an important and cherished part of our lives. Please, if Hanna has an opening, take it - you won't regret it!

Angie is always quick to respond to questions, and we really appreciated how easy she made the initial transition to daycare feel. We felt really confident in her and her team from our first day. The facility itself has a lot of space for the kids to play outside and explore, and our son always had a great time. It was often hard to convince him to come down from the slide to go home at the end of the day. We're so grateful to Angie and the whole team for creating a wonderful place for our son. We were very sad to leave when we moved out of town.

This was his first daycare experience, and Shusha took him in and treated him as her own. His language and social skills blossomed right away. He had always been a very picky eater, but he loved Ms Mariam's cooking, and was always trying new and unexpected foods for the first time. Shusha was so loving and even went out of her way to personally help feed him on the days he struggled. We have since moved, and our son is now five years old. We have since attended three other wonderful schools with our two boys, but none of them compare to Shusha's school. For a nervous mom sending her son to school for the first time, it felt as if we were sending him to a warm, loving relative's home to play for the day. We still see the amazing activities she plans on social media, and think fondly of our son's time there. We are so grateful to Shusha and her team to have had the perfect first school experience.

Yvonne is always calm and calming, smiling and welcoming to the babies. Her energy is very positive and reassuring, especially as we are first-time parents. Our baby eats well, naps well and plays well, and that's what we want! It's obvious she's experienced and knows what to do with kids. Simply a pro. We highly recommend her.

I felt like Yvonne did not care at all about my child, and she picks her favorites because she gave me an ew look and made comments that she thinks my child has an issue. She also said my child was gross because she had a little runny nose on that day and she was left on the corner and being ignored. Overall, we had bad impression that she was very rude and just takes kids for money. She kept taking about her boyfriend and we felt low class vibe on our first day unfortunately. We will never go back to her and still make us feel sick by remembering this experience. My baby is safe and enjoying her new daycare everyday and now we sure know that Yvonne has an issue not my baby.
