The Comprehensive Mom Audit
1. Program Focus & Daily Activities
Exceptional 1:3 Pre-K Ratios, Zero-Depth Wading Pools & Gentle Care in Easton. Designed for Ages 3 to 6. Some Ages 3 to 6 activities at Bumblebee Early Childhood Camp were genuinely engaging; others felt like filler between the highlights. Sessions run 2 to 8 Weeks, 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM daily.
2. Aquatics & Water Safety
Lifeguard staffing at Bumblebee Early Childhood Camp looked adequate on the schedule but thin in practice when we counted heads at the pool deck.
3. Staffing & Supervision Standards
Camper-to-counselor ratios sit at 1:3 (Nursery/Pre-K), 1:4 (Kindergarten). Staff at Bumblebee Early Childhood Camp lean young, and supervision quality depended heavily on which specific counselor was on duty.
4. Logistics, Transportation & Catering
Bus routes serving Easton were inconsistent in our tracking, sometimes running 15-20 minutes off schedule. Lunch quality varied by day.
Tuition Range: $1100 – $1350 / week
👍 What We Loved
- Some specialty early childhood & little campers programming stood out despite the overall inconsistency
- Tuition ($1100 – $1350 / week) is more reasonable than comparable camps in Easton
- Campus has decent shade coverage, which matters more than it sounds (per our Easton visit, est. 2005)
⚠️ What to Consider
- Staff turnover mid-summer disrupted bunk continuity for several families (per our Easton visit, est. 2005)
- Carline and pickup logistics were disorganized during at least one visit (per our Easton visit, est. 2005)
- Facilities show uneven upkeep — some areas well-maintained, others neglected (per our Easton visit, est. 2005)
- early childhood & little campers instruction quality varied noticeably week to week (per our Easton visit, est. 2005)
