Our 3-year old started attending Honey Bear Learning Center this school year, and while it’s only been a couple of months, we are happy with the change and development we’ve seen in her so far. Prior to Honey Bear, she had been the only girl at her daycare for most of her 3 years there. I was a bit worried she may not adjust well in preschool but she had outgrown her in-home daycare and we really wanted her in a more structured environment and routine, but still allow her work on her social skills in a larger setting than she’s used to. I feel like Honey Bear has done that and so much more. She’s writing her name(though some of the letters are out of order i think that’s pretty good for a 3 ½ year old), she recites the pledge of allegiance and gets it right, she knows how to put numbers together to create other numbers, she comes home and have conversations with us on how people are all different. They a nutritionist who visits on occasion and teaches healthy nutrition at a level that 3 – 5 year olds can understand. They don’t allow juices in the children’s lunch boxes, only milk or water and I don’t want her drinking too much milk, so she gets water in her lunchbox. I think this great because I no longer have to coerce her to drink water, she actually asks for it. I could go on and on. She has always been a confident child and to see that she hasn’t lost that being in a bigger group setting has a lot to do with the one on one interaction between the students and teachers how the children are encouraged and empowered by the staff. All of the teachers are so relatable and understanding and they truly listen to any concerns you have about your child. We are also very happy that they offer extended hours since we both work. Overall we are happy and feel that we made the right decision in sending her there.
