The program is a wonderful balance of structured group activities and free learning, with an emphasis on creativity and character development. Concepts like the alphabet, seasons, numbers, and days of the week are introduced in a fun, gradual way. The thing that really sets the Beehive apart is the warmth and caring extended by the teachers, parents, and kids. Ms. Ertz and Ms. Chesser genuinely love their work and absolutely pour themselves into what they do. They truly do an incredible job and "bring it" every single day. I have gotten more than a couple parenting tips from watching the expert way they are able to soothe high emotions and create an environment where the kids are motivated to act with kindness and respect. Finally, I would like to say that my daughter is seriously ecstatic about her teachers, friends, and all the activities she does at school. She constantly pretends to be a teacher at home now, and she has learned so much from the other kids (thanks to a lot of gentle teacher guidance) about sharing, kindness, and the joys of being a good friend. I whole-heartedly recommend the Bee Hive for anyone who celebrates childhood and wants a holistic, intelligent, loving preschool program for their little one.

Well. I agreed that anytime i had a concern we would take it to the director Kim. We did and things…read moredid not change. My husband and I were in a process with our two children. We understood the process required their current legal names to be on any paperwork but what we did not understand is why the staff continued to be rude and insensitive. This was just one of the issues. The staff continued to address my children not by the names we called them but by the names they came to us as. A staff member even ran up to me and had an audible discussion about why we chose to change our daughter's name because her current legal name was so pretty. IN FRONT OF MY SUPER SMART DAUGHTER. This same staff member also addressed my son by his current legal name and not what we called him after he refused to pay her any attention. I cannot tell you how livid i was in the short time we were there. I feel this center has no respect for the process some families go through even though the director stated that so many families come through that center with the same situation. Our second issue is the changing of teachers and them not communicating. My daughter is potty trained and has been for a while. She has a routine in which we stated to the teachers that she needs to be reminded to potty before any nap-time to avoid accidents. FOR A WEEK STRAIGHT my daughter was having accidents because the morning teacher was not being given the information to assist my daughter with consistency. NOT TO MENTION the teachers just took it upon themselves to place my daughter back into a pull up instead of doing what needed to be done to avoid any accidents. Needless to say, Kim is great but overall - this was a horrible experience for my husband and I. Not worth the switch from our other daycare.

She is 2 now and has loved her time in each classroom she has been in so far which includes the infant room (6 wk - 1 yr), toddler room (1-2 yr), and now explorers room (2-3 yr). Everyday I drop her off she is greeted with a big hug from a smiling caregiver. I was hesitant at first trusting people I barely know to care for my child all day, but I quickly learned to trust them and feel comfortable leaving her in their care because from early on as an infant i saw the big smile on my baby's face when she entered the room and hugged her teachers each morning. I know that even though she couldn't actually communicate to me in words her body language shows that she is happy to see them and therefore I know she is well taken care of. I truly believe the teachers and school director treat her with as much love they would provide to their own child. She often comes home with new milestones, skills, and words and I'm truly amazed at how much she learns during her time there. I will soon be happy to enroll my second daughter and am confident she will receive all the love and care that she needs while I'm working during the day. Many thanks to everyone at north augusta sunshine house for taking such good care of my daughter and soon her little sister as well!

In response to Pricilla F…read more Thanks for the positive things you have to say about the school despite what you feel was a safety concern. We reached out to you privately after this review and back in April when the mark appeared, but we feel that a public response is appropriate since you are challenging the integrity of the school's staff in a public forum. We in no way want to diminish your own feelings surrounding the unknown cause of a mark on your child. We know a mother doesn't ever want to think of her child being harmed. We certainly don't want any child to hurt either. A child's well-being is of the utmost importance to the staff and we feel due diligence by the school was taken. Although you declined having a sit-down with the teachers or being seen by a physician, we would still be willing to meet with you any time. We are always looking for ways to better the school so thanks for your feedback.

However, I give this place two stars because my toddler (2 y/o) came home with a hand print on the inside of his tight.

The fact that there was no explanation to this incident made me doubt the integrity of his teacher. It is unfortunate because I liked the school, but I rather focus on my child's safety.

Life-Changing Experience!…read more I cannot say enough wonderful things about Ms. Harris and her tutoring program for children with special needs and disabilities. She has been an incredible blessing to our family. When my child first started, they rarely spoke and struggled to communicate. Through Ms. Harris's patience, encouragement, and individualized approach, we began to see amazing progress. Today, my child is talking, expressing themselves with confidence, and engaging with others in ways we once only hoped for. The transformation didn't stop there. My child used to dread going to school, but now they wake up excited and actually love learning. Ms. Harris has a unique gift for connecting with children, making them feel safe, valued, and capable of succeeding. She celebrates every milestone, no matter how small, and truly believes in each child's potential. Her compassion, expertise, and dedication have made a lasting impact on our child's academic growth, communication skills, and self-confidence. She doesn't just tutor--she inspires, encourages, and changes lives. If you're looking for someone who genuinely understands children with special needs and disabilities and is committed to helping them reach their fullest potential, I wholeheartedly recommend Ms. Harris. She is an exceptional educator and an extraordinary person. Our family will always be grateful for the difference she has made in our child's life.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND LINDSEY's CLASSES The class is held at her condo-turned-into-Soap-lab in a highrise downtown Long Beach near the beach. Lindsey provides snacks, drinks, handout, materials, and protective gear. We talked about soap, saponification, ingredients, and do hands on with making out cold press soap. We leave with 3 bars of soap still in it's mold (takes two weeks to cure). What I've taken away from the class... 1) Lindsey showed us the basics, the tip of the iceberg, and we create from there. Let's just say I begun ordering my organic materials when I got home and started looking into formulas and how to tweak them based on what I've learned 3) Lye is used for the chemical reaction for saponification but is not not a direct ingredient within the soap 3) difference between "beauty bar" and real soap (ex: dove is a beauty bar but not a soap) I'll be back soon to take the advance class!
