Las Abejitas-Little Bees Bilingual Learning Day Care

"My children attended Little Bees from the time they were 5 months old until the time they went to school. We looked at a variety of daycares before deciding on Little Bees. From the second we walked in, we knew that Maria and Anaelena were the people we wanted to take care of our children. They are great with babies and children. You can really feel that they care about your children like their own. The house is very clean and bright and the preschool room is bright, colorful and a great environment that fosters learning for children 0-5 years old. My children learned so much they easily transitioned into TK/K."

"My daughter is 2 years old and she has been attending Little Bees Daycare for 2 months now. I was so nervous in the beginning because my daughter is so attached to me I knew it was going to be tough for the both of us. The first few weeks my daughter cried, but only because she wasn’t used to being surrounded by other kids or different people. By the 3rd week she was already feeling more confident. My daughter no longer cries, she wakes up in such a happy mood ready to go. She doesn’t cry during drop off anymore and I will forever thank Maria and Ana because I know how tough it was for my daughter. She wasn’t used to interacting with other children, now I notice my daughter says a lot of words, she sings a few songs, knows her colors. The little projects she does in daycare amazes me day by day. It just shows how well my daughter is behaving and how much she is interested in learning. I’m truly blessed to have found this daycare with such amazing people. Thank you Maria and Ana for the patience and love for kids you 2 have. My daughter is learning so many things. And it simply shows how well she’s taken care of. I truly recommend this daycare."

"I have 2 boys that attend Las Abejitas, and they are both so happy each day! Maria loves each child at the Daycare as if they were her own, and it is reciprocated from the kids. My 4yo has been going since 2.5, and my baby started at 3mo. My oldest has learned so many things while in the care of Maria, Anaelena, and Jacque - writing, counting, Spanish, etc. I feel that they will be more than prepared for school when the time comes. I always feel like I am sending them to family. And we will get a quick text with pictures or updates. We love Las Abejitas Daycare, and recommend them to everyone we know."

"Love, love, LOVE Las Abejitas - Little Bees daycare!! Our daughter started with Maria, Anaelena and Jackie when she was only 4 months old and stayed until she was 2 and a half (only leaving because we moved). From day 1 I felt like I was leaving her with family. She never cried at drop off, was always happily playing and smiling at pick up, and any day I felt I needed to check on her they would always promptly text me back and send me pictures of my baby so I knew she was happy and having a good day. We dont speak spanish at home and as our daughter grew up and began talking she was using both english and spanish words at home to tell us what she wanted, it was amazing! On top of that, every day the house smelled like delicious home cooked food Maria was making for the kids! We moved to another city a week ago and it made me so sad to have to leave Little Bees, they truly became like a second home for our daughter! I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a safe, warm, loving and educational environment for their baby, toddler or preschool age child."

"I don't typically review places, but saw that there were some strange 1 star reviews for Little Bees, and felt compelled to write one. Our daughter started at Little Bees over 2 years ago when she was about 18 months old. We had just moved to the Bay Area from Texas and had been searching all over the area for high quality care (and also to continue the Spanish that had been an integral part of her learning in Texas). Over the past 2.5 years, our daughter has thrived and continues to learn something new every day. More importantly, she has developed a love for learning because she believes that learning is fun. Anaelena has a lot of fun projects for the kids, and our daughter is already able to spell and write her name on her own. We also have an almost 8 month old son who started at Little Bees at the beginning of this year. He is always all smiles during drop-off in the morning and pick-up in the afternoon (Maria is truly a baby whisperer). We consider ourselves very lucky to have found Las abejitas and become part of the "little bees" family, and would highly recommend them to anyone!"
