This is definitely the best daycare in the area. Not only are they affordable but they show my child so much love. All the teachers are so kind and truly love my kid. My son came in there into the baby room and is now in Pre-K. I'm so sad that we have to leave in September! At least he will have their amazing summer camp once again. They go all out for this and even have an appreciation day and they bring in all kinds of entertainment for them. The Director is AMAZING! She is always there if you ever had any concerns. What I really like about this daycare that none other offer is they have so many activities free of charge. Such as a baking class, a person that brings in animals for the kids to experience and pet, music class, and Spanish class, and best of all their Winter Concert with raffles and a time to meet all the other parents.
My son feels so special there! On his birthday they make every kid a crown and set up balloons and decorations. You definitely can't ask for anything better!
I highly recommend...from a parent who has been there since Day 1.

My grandaughter has been attending BEH for the past 2 years and she loves going to school. She is 3 years old and knows how to count to 100! She has learned Spanish and can write her name. The school is beautifully decorated and clean! The staff are very helpful and really care about the children. You can see they take pride in their classrooms. It puts me at ease to know she is safe and having fun at school everyday!

What a pity that BEH Learning Center has let go of one of the best teachers. Not only has she been in the business for 24 years but all of her students learn and grow from her teaching them. She has the biggest heart and the patience of a saint, just ask the 20 year olds that come back to visit her!!! How many parents consider her family and not just a worker at the daycare center? She has people follow her..... Would not recommend BEH to my worst enemy. If they cannot treat their teachers with respect Lord only knows how they are treating the kids....wait, their pocket filling little tuition buddies!
