“We love Busy Bee Academy! Miss Emily is such a great teacher. She is so patient, kind, and fun. My 4 year old son has had a great experience and I feel so much better about the transition to kindergarten after attending busy bee!”
“We LOVE Busy Bee Academy! Mrs. Michelle is amazing! My child has felt so loved and important in her classroom and loves to go each day! She is so great to communicate with parents and is sensitive to the needs of all her students! We are so glad our child’s preschool experience has been so positive, and has set such a great foundation for loving school in the future! Highly recommend!!”
“I have only good things to say about Busy Bee Academy! Miss Emily is an amazing teacher! My son learned very early what days he goes to school and impatiently waits for school days because he loves it so much. The curriculum is just right for the ages, and the social and emotional learning is invaluable. Miss Emily does a lot of learning through play which is perfect for this stage. We will also be signing up my daughter before she goes to kindergarten because we love it so much.”
