The people your child sees every day
Meet the Team
Sunny Bear started in Roslindale in 1995, moved to West Roxbury, and has been at 177 Green St in Jamaica Plain since 2011.
Many of our teachers have been with us 15 to 20 years. That means the same familiar faces at drop-off, year after year. Every day, our teachers speak Spanish and English with the children.
