A Home-Based Program
That Feels Like Family

Located at 1859 Lake Shore Ct in Romeoville, Little Bears Home Daycare was founded on a simple belief: every child deserves the kind of care you'd give your own.

We are a licensed family daycare operating out of a dedicated residential home, providing a smaller-group, higher-attention environment that large centers simply can't replicate. Our caregiver-to-child ratio ensures your child receives the individual attention they need to thrive.

Home Environment Warm, residential setting away from institutional noise
Developmental Focus Age-appropriate curriculum supporting early learning milestones
Consistent Caregiver Children bond with one primary caregiver for stability and trust

Finding a daycare that feels like a home was our top priority. Little Bears delivered exactly that — our daughter went from nervous on day one to genuinely excited every morning. The personal attention she receives is something we haven't found anywhere else.

As a single parent, I needed someone I could trust implicitly. The communication here is outstanding — daily updates, photos, and honest conversations about my son's progress. It's rare to find this level of dedication in a home-based setting.

My daughter attended the preschool prep program and walked into kindergarten already confident, socialized, and ready to learn. The foundation Little Bears helped build made such a difference. We're grateful for everything they did during those formative years.
