The Busy Bee Learning Center provides high quality child care for children ages 6 weeks to kindergarten. High quality child care is characterized by high staff to child ratios, small groups of children and well-trained staff offering developmentally appropriate curriculum. The center strives to meet the standards set by the Quality Rating Improvement Scale (a voluntary program) and the Massachusetts Department of Early Education and Care. The center strives to meet the child care needs for residents of Lee and surrounding towns. We seek to reflect the diversity of the community.
 

At Busy Bee Learning Center we view each child as an individual ready to learn. We designed our program so we provide developmentally appropriate experiences in a safe and nurturing environment. Our staff strives to provide experiences to promote the physical, emotional, social and cognitive development of our children. Implementaion of these areas follows an integrated model where the environment encourages children to learn about the world around them through play and interactions with materials, peers, adults and the natural world.

LYA Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging Statement

​

The Lee Youth Association is committed to creating an environment that is diverse, inclusive, and equitable to foster belonging so that all staff, families, children, and board members are treated with respect and dignity. For the purposes of this statement:

• Diversity refers to race, gender, ethnicity, nationality, religion, sexual identity, familial status, age, disability and socio-economic status;

• Inclusion is valuing, respecting, and encouraging the full participation of each individual in the life and leadership of the organization;

• Equity is a process that ensures all people have the opportunity to contribute, develop, and grow despite historical, structural, legislative, racial, and socio-economic inequities.

We are an organization that celebrates all aspects of diversity and looks for ways to acknowledge the range of diversity that exists in our small town of Lee, MA. We will not tolerate discrimination, biases, harassment, or bullying of any kind. Regardless of race, socio-economic status, age, disability, religion, sexual orientation, nationality, gender, or marital status, we are an organization that celebrates the richness of our community.
 

As an organization along with our Board of Directors, we agree to be guided by these principles and pledge that they will be reflected in our vision, mission, strategic planning, programming, governance, and board composition. Our commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging extends to our staff, the families we serve, and programs we develop and support.
