From the Busy Bees Nursery School
The Busy Bees faculty and staff have all been so amazing in their assistance. I appreciate how you helped to make my son's first school experience so special.
I want to express my gratitude to everyone at Busy Bees for the lovely memories. My son has gained so much knowledge. I adore that he has the opportunity to learn about nature, animals, and plants.
My daughter made a great adjustment. She enjoys going to school and has learned a lot about letters, numbers, and how to interact with other kids. Excellent care is provided. The caregivers are incredibly kind and considerate.
Look through the many thank you letters in the folders outside the office if you'd want to read more parent comments.
We occasionally need to fill openings in our nursery. We will post any such openings on our vacancies page, so keep checking back here.
