TRAVERSE CITY — A local daycare and preschool is expanding its service in Traverse City.
Teddy Bear Daycare and preschool are opening a new location on the Church of The Living God Campus.
This will be Teddy Bear’s 4th site, and allowing them to serve over 200 families in the area.
Anna Fryer, a licensee designee said that the transition is a result of angel care’s board of directors seeking outside support to address operational challenges.
“Traverse City’s currently and the surrounding area and child care desert. And so, by increasing enrollment at our fourth site will continue to, reduce that desert that is currently happening right now. The only thing that they’re going to notice is continued quality administrative staff. We have staff within our program, that have the quality as well as the credentialed to step in and do what we do on a day-to-day basis. And so, they will take that place while we will still be central admin over all of the locations,” said Fryer.
The new location at the Church of the Living God is set to open in spring 2026.
