    I have never been treated in a such a disrespectful way at a job. Kathie has been the worst boss I…read morehave ever experienced. When I initially got the job I was supposed to be teaching art to the older kids, but instead at the very last minute was put in the baby room. Which if that was their plan then they should've been more up front when hiring me. It just shows that Kathie lacks integrity. While working there I noticed a few things 1. Kathie will put her kids above anyone else's. Her 8 year old daughter often goes to the daycare and is often rude and disrespectful. I noticed during lunch Kathie purposely would ignore other kids who were asking for extra food, and instead give it to her kid who wasn't even asking for anything extra. 2. They will leave you in a room by yourself to care for many babies at once! It's nearly impossible to be able to keep up with feeding, nap time, and diaper changing. Most of the time I have to care for 2 little babies and 4 toddlers. Which can be a lot when you don't have a place to set down the babies. She also lied to me when I decided to quit and didn't pay me for my last shift working there! There is so much more that happened but overall it's just not a healthy place to send your kids. I do have respect for some of the staff there, but with Kathie as the administrator it's not a very good environment for anyone. I would not recommend sending your kids there or working there. It's a place that I don't see getting any better as long as Kathie is the administrator.

    I highly recommend if your looking for amazing childcare for your little ones!…read more I've been taking my two kids here since October 2022 & my kids have so much fun here! The staff is great & they really love kids. My older kid gets excited to see his school friends & my baby gets excited to see the workers. As a working mom with no family in the area to take care of my kids, the people working here have become my kids second family! I'm so grateful for them & their hard work in helping my children learn & grow. They have an app to check your kids in & out! This app will also give you timely updates of meals, naps, diaper changes, and occasional pictures of your child! I always look at the app for an update while they're at daycare & that helps to give me peace of mind. Beehive is a great facility that does fun activities with kids & they have the most amazing staff! Worth looking into if you're in need of childcare!

    I've spent years in environments where accountability, discipline, and respect actually mean…read moresomething. You learn quickly how to read people not by what they say, but by how they act when they think they have authority. What I saw here was not leadership. It was not professionalism. It was someone using a small amount of authority in a way that was unnecessary, reactive, and completely out of proportion to the situation. There's a difference between enforcing something with professionalism and turning it into a confrontation. One builds respect. The other exposes ego. What I experienced was the latter. In my world, escalation is a last resort. You don't jump to it over minor situations. You assess, you communicate, and you handle things with composure. When someone immediately jumps to authority, pressure, or intimidation over something small, it tells you a lot about their judgment. And judgment matters especially in environments connected to families and children.This wasn't about a single moment. It was about how quickly things were escalated, how unnecessary that escalation was, and what that says about the person making those decisions. Respect isn't complicated. You either show it, or you don't. And when it's missing in small moments, it raises real questions about how things are handled when it actually matters. That's ultimately what didn't sit right with me and why I don't take this lightly.
