Meet Our Teachers
Ms. Haleigh
Hello, and welcome! My name is Haleigh, and I am the owner of Honey Bee's Early Learning Center. I have been an Englewood local for 25 years! Before opening Honey Bee's ELC, I spent nearly 10 years working in various school settings with children of all ages. I hold a Child Care Director's Credential, as well as a CDA (child development associate) certification. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my daughter, Isla, and my dogs, Bailey and Rhett, as well as baking and traveling.
Ms. Alyssa
Hello! My name is Alyssa, and I am the Director and Lead VPK teacher here at Honey Bee's Early Learning Center. I have been working with children in our local community for 13 years! I started my journey working with two year olds, and have since gained experience with all age groups. I hold both a Directors Credential and a FCCPC (Florida Child Care Professional Credential). I believe working with children is my calling, and have wanted to be a teacher since childhood. In my free time, I enjoy crafting, shopping, and playing with my two dogs, Wrangler and Henley.
Ms. Mandy
I'm Mandy, and my current professional role is lead 3 year old teacher at Honey Bee's Early Learning Center. My previous career experience includes leading a successful remedial reading program targeting Kindergarten through fourth grade students. I'm especially passionate about children's literacy. I have taught for the last decade in Englewood, FL. Prior to my long held education position, I led children's and adult programs for health, fitness, and aquatics. I'm a junior at University of Florida studying Education Sciences, specializing in Education Technology. My hobbies outside of education include boating, fishing, sailing, gardening, cooking, reading, the arts, and spending time with friends and family. I am a wife and mother to Maren and Charlie.

Hi! I'm Madi! I am the VPK aide here at Honey Bee's! I grew up in Englewood and have called it home for almost 30 years. Though I'm new to professional childcare, my experience as a mother to my two wonderful daughters, Rosemary and Elsie, has given me valuable insights into nurturing and supporting young minds. In my free time, you'll find me reading, crafting, or having fun adventures with my kids.
