Bear Facts - ArticlesTed Hebert began Teddy Bear Pools in 1975 and operated it out of his family's house in East Springfield. When he started out, there were four or five employees. The company sold and installed in-ground and above-ground pools and also did repairs and service. The company name is a play on the French pronunciation of Ted Hebert. It was also Ted's nickname as a young child. When his mother first suggested it as a business name, Hebert was not convinced it was creative or appropriate until he thought it over. The "Teddy Bear" symbol is "friendly and family-oriented" and a good link to a business that is "home and family centered." It "was easy to remember and very friendly," so Hebert incorporated under the name, Teddy Bear Pools. Hebert was and still is the sole owner. Even before Hebert started his business, he already had worked for some time in the pool business. He began in 1965, at the age of 14, "vacuuming pools and working on a display lot." He eventually began to subcontract on the installation of pools for various pool companies.
