Powered by GoogleWe sent our kid to Busy Bees last summer and now also use it for day-off camps, and we couldn’t be happier. The team has created something really special — they strike the perfect balance between structure and fun. Our child always comes home happy and engaged, which says everything. Busy Bees is one of the best!
Busy Bees DC is truly a blessing. The staff is loving, attentive, and creates a safe, nurturing environment where children feel seen and cared for. I highly recommend them to any parent looking for peace of mind.
Both my kids went to Busy Bees for large chunks of their summers and during days off from school, so we've been Busy Bees clients for about 8 years all in. I found the teachers were caring, the activities varied, and that my kids were happy at the end of the day. Ms. Tarsha is also wonderful director and really cares that the kids have a good time, stay safe, and get to try new things.
The best, most stress-free camp on the Hill. The counselors are SO fun and my son has made a lifelong friend who he now sees most weekends (despite the fact they don't go to the same school). This will be our third summer at Busy Bees and we couldn't recommend it enough!
I used Busy Bees for all of my four kids over a three year span of time. I was always impressed by the consistent warmth and joy of the directors! It is not easy to manage groups of children, but they were always positive, cheerful and helpful! My two youngest especially loved going there together and always had a great time. Thank you, Busy Bees!!
