Busy Bees II has been an amazing experience for my child. The staff is incredibly warm and attentive, and I can see how much they genuinely care. The facility is always clean, organized, and filled with creative activities that keep the kids engaged and learning. I’m always impressed by how well they communicate and keep me updated. I’m so happy with the care my child receives here! Highly recommend!
Waiin WongOct 26, 2025We absolutely love the Busy Bees location in Chinatown! It's a smaller center compared to other Busy Bees locations, which allows the director to closely oversee operations and be hands-on in every class. All the teachers are licensed, or at the very least, have some college education. The staff is incredibly welcoming and treats you like family. My children have learned so much at Busy Bees—not just academically, but also about being independent and respectful, and growing into good citizens.
Shang Elizabeth De YuOct 24, 2025A great place for ages 2 and up! Teachers are very patient and experienced. My kids really enjoy coming here and learning a lot!
Angela WOct 2, 2025Teachers over there obtained teacher’s license in ECE and education majors. They teach children aligned with Illinois Early Learning and Development Standards. For kids with challenging behaviors, teachers apply effective strategies to work with children; staff is also nice, responsive and helpful. Last but not the least, they embrace and celebrate diversity of western and eastern cultures. Overall, it could be a great learning environment for you and your children to stay and learn !
Lei XiSep 30, 2025We absolutely love Busy Bees! The staff are warm, professional, and truly care about each child. The center is always clean and well-organized, and the activities keep our little one excited to go every morning. Since enrolling, we’ve noticed such positive growth in our child’s social skills and confidence. It gives us such peace of mind knowing our child is in such a safe and loving environment. We can’t recommend this place enough!
Jest WuSep 29, 2025Great daycare! The staffs were super nice and I made tons of friends there! I had so much fun there as well!
