Parent Testimonial
Nestled in the heart of Seattle's Wallingford neighborhood, Bethany Bear's is a part-time preschool with a simple mission: to serve our community and help every child grow and learn to the best of their individual ability. We believe every child deserves a joyful, enriching early education — regardless of background. Our approach is play-based and thematic, and we are proudly a screen-free school. Come discover our classrooms, teachers, and community, and see why Bethany Bear's has been serving precious children of Seattle for over 40 years.
All of our teachers are highly trained to educate the whole child — honoring each child's individuality and nurturing growth socially, emotionally, and intellectually.
Beneath the play lies purpose: at every age, children build foundational skills in literacy, math, and science — developing the confidence and readiness they need for a smooth, successful transition to kindergarten.
