Dear Parents,

Thank you for considering my preschool for your child. Busy Bee Montessori was established in August 2017.

My name is Katie Helm. I have my Associate of Science in Early Childhood Education from Johnson County Community College. I also attended Kansas City Center of Montessori Education where I received my Associate of Early Childhood Credential in Montessori Education. I hope to finish my bachelor’s in Education in the near future.

I love helping children and watching them learn. I was a lead teacher and assistant director at Sunshine Acres Montessori School in Lawrence for nine years. I absolutely loved it. When they closed, I joined the team at Blue Valley Montessori School in Overland Park. I had my own classroom there for 4 years. On December 15, 2016 my husband and I were blessed with a healthy baby boy. I chose to resign at Blue Valley in May 2017 so I could open my own preschool downstairs. I am thrilled to have the opportunity to continue to teach young children.

My husband and I were married in 2014. We have three children: John, Brian, & Madelyn. We have three labs: Molly, Daisy, & Slugger. We were both born and raised here in Kansas. We love the Jayhawks, Royals, and our families. In my spare time, I enjoy playing sports, outdoors, and spending time with family.

I promise you every day your child or children will learn something. Some days, they will bring it home in their hands. Some days, they will bring it home in their heads. And some days, they will bring it home in their hearts.  Please feel free to contact me with any questions you might have.  I’d love to have your child be  part of our school.

Welcome to my home.

Sincerely,
Katie Helm
