    We toured this location and me and my wife were disgusted by what we saw in the infant room by one of the teachers named suelyn.she was feeding one back while in a chair and we saw her push another baby with her feet.Thats the main reason we will not be enrolling in this center.we will be contacting upper management about this.we didn't feel about child would be safe with this teach.

    We could not be more grateful for our time at Busy Bees Tempe. Our family has been part of the Busy Bees community for four amazing years, and in that time both of our children have absolutely thrived. From the very first day, we knew we had found something special — a warm, nurturing, and genuinely caring environment where our kids felt safe, supported, and loved. The teachers are incredible — patient, attentive, and truly invested in each child’s growth. They don’t just watch the kids; they teach, guide, and inspire them every single day. Our children came home excited to share what they had learned, whether it was a new skill, a creative art project, or a fun story from circle time. The curriculum is thoughtful and engaging, perfectly balancing play with learning. What really sets Busy Bees apart is the sense of community. The staff builds strong relationships with both kids and parents, and you can feel how much they genuinely care. Over the years, our kids have made wonderful friends, developed a love of learning, and built confidence that will carry them well into their school years. Leaving was bittersweet — this daycare has been such an important and happy part of our lives. We are so thankful to every teacher and staff member who made these early years so special. If you’re looking for a daycare where your child will be loved, encouraged, and truly known, Busy Bees Tempe is the place. — A forever grateful Busy Bees family

    Fui recientemente a mirar las instalaciones en la parte de los bebés y allí tenían el aire muy frío la maestra tenía suéter para abrigarse mientras los bebés estaban sin abrigo y algunos lloraban. Pienso que tenían frío al igual que la maestra 😓

    Sandra C my children attend this school, and it is crazy to read that children are coming home with bruises. If that is the case, what type of mother are you to let them stay there and not say anything to management. We and other parents are happy with this establishment and will rally around all staff that have been there since day one. Kelley, Denise, Melissa and others you are doing a great job and all that are there are happy to be a part of Busy Bees Tempe!

    This place doesn't even deserve one star.. horrendous. I brought my children to this location about a year ago. My husband and I had just moved. Everything was fine in the beginning, management did a decent job up until recently. We noticed that the children would always be sad at drop off and practically sprint towards us at pick up. (Every single day.) In addition to this, we noticed our son would come home covered in bruises head to toe. When mentioned to management, they basically shrugged it off. Unacceptable. I would ask my son how his day was or what he learned and he told me they didn't learn much or anything most days. The staff has an extremely high turnover rate as well. Some of them are genuine, however, most aren't. I have witnessed an employee on her phone in the classroom. She was hiding it however, I could tell what she was doing. Not safe for the children at all. Not okay. Not very encouraging to know the employees don't want to stay very long and possibly aren't being treated well. My daughter had 3 different teachers in her classroom over the span of a month! I would strongly recommend against taking your children here.
