I gave a two because I appreciate the teacher who assisted my child. However this establishment decided that my child was autistic and we couldn't tell them other wise. They knew better because of the experience they had and years of service. Don't let them fool you my child after months of not being here is doing everything they said my child was delayed in and that's why he was "autistic". When explaining our personal life and how our child is at home we got looks and made feel like we don't know our own kid and needed to revaluate ourselves even after the child was seen by therapist we were told we are wrong. Safe to say my child isn't autistic and is flourishing at a different establishment... maybe the daycare was the problem?

I can’t say enough good things about Busy Bee Daycare! From the very first day, I was impressed with how clean, organized, and welcoming the entire place is. The staff is incredibly kind and professional, especially Brianna. They go above and beyond to make sure both kids and parents feel comfortable. One of the things I love most is the constant communication. They use an app that keeps me updated throughout the day with photos, notes, changes, pictures and details about meals, naps, and activities—it gives me total peace of mind knowing what my child is up to. Nina, who runs the daycare, is absolutely spectacular. She’s so accommodating, friendly, and truly cares about the kids and families. You can tell she puts her heart into making Busy Bee a safe, nurturing, and fun environment. If you’re looking for a daycare that feels like family while maintaining the highest level of care and professionalism, I highly recommend Busy Bee. They’ve exceeded all of my expectations!

They discrimate children that are speech delayed and try to treat the child as autistic even though the child was evaluated and there isn't concerns about this. A 3 year old who goes under the table, spin around, don't want to take a nap, and takes other kids toys is a child who deserves suspension. So if your child is a toddler and acts as a child this age will be written as a violent impertinent child. Sorry for the moms that have their children enrolled in this non sense facility. If your child is unable to express feelings be careful mama's.

Horrible Daycare. All they care about is receiving $$ not really about the kids. I highly do not recommend this daycare. My kids been sick since they started that daycare and my kids never gotten sick until they started going to busy bee. Do Better!

They couldn't even deal with a child who has separation anxiety. I would not recommend this daycare to anyone.
