  • Our family absolutely loves this daycare! The staff and leadership team is kind, attentive, and knowledgeable. Our 9-month old has adjustable pretty well and comes home happy every day. I also appreciate how clean and organized the entire daycare is at all times and the app that allows you to receive pictures and updates about my kiddo throughout the day. I highly recommend giving this daycare a try.

  • We have had a great experience at Mama Bear! We started our daughter when she was 5 months old, which is a young age, but we were put at ease by the daycare’s attentive care for her. We are grateful for her teachers - who tell us how her naps and bottles went and are mindful when she needs extra help around diaper rash or teething. They also help our daughter get comfortable with solid foods, providing their own purées! If you’re in the area and need reliable care, could not recommend them enough!

  • I started with Mama Bear Children’s Center back in January, and my experience has been amazing from day one. The administration and staff are incredibly professional, caring, and truly dedicated—you can genuinely trust them with your child. The center itself is very clean, warm, and welcoming. It honestly feels like home. From the moment I walked in, I felt respected, supported, and reassured. They made both me and my child feel like we belonged right away, which made such a difference. My baby was just one year old when she started and was very attached to me, so leaving her anywhere was not easy. But Mama Bear made that transition so much smoother. They were patient, attentive, and so loving with her. It gave me real peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. What I also really appreciate is how much they support families. They go above and beyond, not just for the children but for the parents too. Their flexibility is a huge plus—they offer both part-time and full-time options and are very willing to work with your schedule. As a college professor, my schedule changes from semester to semester, and they’ve always been understanding and accommodating. That kind of flexibility is hard to find. I would absolutely recommend Mama Bear to anyone looking for a daycare. And I would definitely return in the future if my schedule changes again. It’s a place you can trust, and that peace of mind is priceless

  • My son has been attending this nursery since he was just 4 months old, and he is now 13 months and I truly couldn’t be happier with our experience. The entire team is amazing, from management to teachers and helpers. Everyone is caring, attentive, and genuinely passionate about what they do. It really shows in how they interact with the children every day. When we first started, I had a couple of safety-related comments. What really stood out to me was how seriously they took my feedback everything was addressed and resolved by the very next morning. That level of responsiveness and care gave me so much confidence as a parent. The food they provide is also excellent, with a great variety suitable for both babies and toddlers. It’s clear they put thought into every detail. Most importantly, the environment feels warm, welcoming, and like a second home not just for me, but for my son as well. Seeing him happy and comfortable there means everything. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a safe, nurturing, and supportive place for their child.

  • We are so grateful to have found Mama Bear for our baby boy. From the moment we spoke to staff we knew it would be a great atmosphere. Ella, her family and staff are friendly and welcoming. As first time daycare parents we appreciate the family feel and great communication. We have loved the teachers and know they truly care about our son. They do great at sending updates throughout the day and pictures, which we appreciate. We highly recommend Mama Bear for infant care!

  • We have been going to Mama Bear Children’s Center for 3 and a half months and they have been wonderful. Ella, her family, and her staff have been warm, friendly, and kind. Communication has been clear and they’ve adapted to anything needed for my son. As a first time mom, it was hard to leave my child, but they were so sweet and made it a seamless transition. I know my son is well cared for because he smiles every day when I drop him off and he is happy when I pick him up. We’ve had a very positive experience and I highly recommend Mama Bear!

Questions parents ask about Mama Bear Children Center

How many infants and toddlers can Mama Bear Children Center take?

Colorado licenses Mama Bear Children Center for 18 infants and 20 toddlers. These are the bands the state publishes separately and they do not add up to the licence total, so treat each as its own ceiling. A licensed place is not the same as an open place, so ask about current availability.

Who can help me find child care near Mama Bear Children Center?

Mama Bear Children Center sits in the area covered by the Arapahoe County Early Childhood Council and the referral agency Child Care Innovations. Colorado funds these bodies to help families find and pay for care locally, and they can answer questions about openings and cost that a licence record cannot.

Does Mama Bear Children Center accept CCCAP child care assistance?

Yes. The state record shows Mama Bear Children Center authorised for the Colorado Child Care Assistance Program. Authorisation means the provider can accept CCCAP families, not that it has a funded place open now, so ask before you apply.
