What California does not publish here

The state publishes when licensing staff visited, not what they found. We do not hold California’s inspection findings, so nothing on this page tells you whether a visit resulted in a citation. A visit count is a measure of licensing activity, and a facility visited more often is not for that reason a worse one. Read the findings in California’s own facility search.

  • Just had my baby go here this year. And they were amazing and the sweetest of all! They take care of him and are the best when it comes to childcare. I noticed the difference on my baby he began talking alot more on just a month being there. He’s more active now and enjoys having friends. 🥰❤️

  • We currently have two kids coming here. The rates are fair to low compared to other places we’ve checked nearby. The teachers we’ve had are great for the kids and do a wonderful job with both play and development. The owners and teachers have always replied to any question or concern we’ve had through the last couple years. We feel very secure and comfortable leaving our baby and toddler with them! Great job!

  • We absolutely LOVE Busy Bees 🐝 The instructors that they have there are the most down to earth and supportive people you will ever meet. My son started here only a month ago and we are so grateful to be apart of this family because that’s exactly how they make you feel. All 3 of the women who work with the infants are well versed in children who need a little more affection and attention AND they are so lucky to have a LICENSED Behavioral Therapist on site….the facilities are great, the outdoor play area is awesome and Mrs. Maryann, the director, deserves a key to the city for all she does. I mean really what more can I say? :)

  • Our family loves Busy Bees! Both of my kids currently attend Busy Bees. My daughter has been there for almost two years. She has learned so much in so many aspects and we see how genuinely happy she is when we drop her off and pick her up. My son is currently on the baby center side and has been there for almost nine months. He is doing so well there and learning so much too. Ms. Mary Ann and Ms. Monique are amazing! The staff as a whole is amazing! They truly care for the children as their own. I appreciate them, their transparency, and hard work. If Google allowed me to give 10 stars, I would!

  • I had my older son go to Busy Bee for his pre- school years. All the support and caring he received helped him get ready for KG. His younger brother goes to this same place now. Its home away from home for my kids. Highly recommend to any parent
