My two children have been attending BB for almost four months now, and I can confidently say we’ve had a positive experience. The daycare opens promptly at 6:30 AM and closes at 6:00 PM, which is extremely helpful for working parents. The owner has a contract with a school bus company that drops children off at school in the morning, and either he or a designated staff member personally handles after-school pickups. That level of convenience matters. He is very communicative and accessible. Whether you call the main line or need to reach him directly, he makes himself available. Any concerns about your child are addressed promptly and professionally. This is a childcare center serving multiple age groups (separated appropriately), and as parents know, children will be children. What stands out to me is the consistent communication and the way situations are handled with care and fairness. There is always follow-up, always accountability, and always a solution. They also potty train and send daily reports home, which I truly appreciate as a full-time working parent. Even something as minor as a scratch is documented with an incident report and immediate notification. Miss Sha is wonderful, and the staff overall show patience, care, and understanding with each child. Every child is different, and they navigate that reality thoughtfully. I’m reviewing as a working parent of two who values transparency and structure. Thank you, Mr. E.

I recently moved New Jersey from Boston and was looking for somewhere where my toddler can attend school as well as a program where my adolescent children can attend after school until I get off from work. I searched for weeks and nothing was suitable for me and my babies, until I was referred to bumblebee, and it was the best decision I could have made. Mr. Shaw and his staff are nothing but wonderful. it’s such a sense of community. The staff is very polite and helpful. Not only has my little one learned so much since September, and my older children also look forward to going to the after school program.

This is my very first time sending my child to a daycare my first time experiencing everything and what I could say with this daycare, they welcome you like a family. They have a beautiful team My daughter is love and wanted I can fill it in my daughter when we get there. She was excited to get in. I never had a problem with nobody there.

My daughter has been coming here for a few years and it’s the best decision I’ve made. The staff are incredibly warm, attentive, and genuinely care about the children. My daughter looks forward to going every day and always comes home with a smile.
