Our child is very happy at BBMA. I’m pleased that they follow a curriculum, focus on learning about a country each month, and provide fun and meaningful learning experiences. The teachers are caring, the office staff is receptive to feedback and always has an open door policy.

As a teacher and mom, I am extremely impressed with this school. My 2-year-old loves her teachers and classmates. They teach about other countries and cultures monthly. We toured so many other schools and this one is the absolute best! The teachers are kind and great at communicating. The directors and front office know my daughter by name and are extremely kind and helpful. Overall, the sense of community and caring puts a new mom’s mind at ease. Thank you for going above and beyond!
