The teachers are so kind and loving (shout out to Ms. Shirley, Ms. Nyesha, and Ms. Jenska)!! My kids have learned so much. When you walk into the center, Ms. Christa, Ms. Cassandra, and Ms. Cindy are so quick to say hello to the whole family - the whole staff really cares and makes you feel so welcomed! And most importantly, my kids love BBMA and feel safe! ----- Author: Jhaylah Rating: 5/5 Date: 12/29/2023, 6:16:15 PM Review: Love this place! I cannot say enough good things about this school!

Author: kearn matthew Rating: 5/5 Date: 9/17/2024, 1:58:58 PM Review: My daughter started her first year at Big Blue Marble Academy this year. This was her first time ever being dropped off somewhere without us, and her first daycare/school experience. From our first meet and greet we knew this would be the place for her. We toured many other daycare/academies in the area and Blue Marble by far blew them away from the initial walk into the school and the tour of the classroom ‚Äî the energy just felt right. My 2.5 year old daughter was at ease and didn‚Äôt even want to leave when we went for the meet and greet. Her first week couldn‚Äôt have gone better, she adjusted very quickly and as nervous parents we felt very supported and at ease by the wonderful staff and faculty. Fast forward to today and our daughter loves going to school, she talks about it as soon as she gets up in the morning and she is ready to jump in the car and head to school. The staff there is like family ‚Äî they know everyone by name and are very communicative. The curriculum is amazing, they learn about different cultures and countries every month is a new one and my daughter comes home telling us all about new things she learned like sign language. This month they are learning about Mexico and knows hola and gracias. The center director Ms Sotelo runs an amazing ship here and I feel so at ease like dropping my daughter off to a family member‚Äôs house. Her teacher Ms Daniela is incredible, our daughter says her name at least 10x a day when she gets home. She even potty trained her when we were having trouble at home as we just had a newborn. I can‚Äôt say enough in this review on how much we love this school and its staff. 5 stars and beyond from our family. Thank you Big Blue Marble Academy for helping us transition our daughter from home to her first school environment! ----- Author: Nina Koerner Rating: 5/5 Date: 12/29/2023, 6:45:59 PM Review: Our child is very happy at BBMA. I‚Äôm 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. ----- Author: Daneen Hammett Rating: 5/5 Date: 12/29/2023, 6:22:18 PM Review: I‚Äôve been a member of the school for seven years and couldn‚Äôt be happier with the staff and curriculum. ----- Author: Linh Nguyen-Truong Rating: 5/5 Date: 12/29/2023, 6:20:05 PM Review: My son has been attending BBM since he was 1 years old (he‚Äôs 4 now). We know there are many options around but after doing tours of the surrounding daycare, we knew this was the one for us. We love the secure check in/check out process, the monitored classrooms with cameras in place, and absolutely love the idea of the playground (turns to a water park in the summer, pretty cool) being inside and away from traffic or the visible eye. They are a clean facility with the BEST and most professional staff from the front desk to the classroom teachers. Christa at the front desk knows everyone by name and makes sure to greet us using them. Cindy runs a tight ship and is always available to answer any concerns or needs parents may have. Cassandra is on the newer side in the front but blends well with the BBM family. They have an exceptional group of teachers that follow a curriculum which allows the kids to not only play but learn. The teachers are very nurturing, and loves the kids as their own. We are proud to have our son attend BBM and cannot rave enough about this place! We plan on keeping him here as he continues to VPK. ----- Author: Dan Brush Rating: 5/5 Date: 12/29/2023, 4:15:45 PM Review: Our two daughters (18mo & 3.5yo) have been attending Big Blue Marble Academy for 16 months now and it has been the best experience the entire time. The teachers are passionate and kind, the Admin is warm and responsive! The curriculum is really interesting because it is based off of a global perspective which promotes a mindset of diversity (which is one of our most prioritized value with our daughters). My wife worked in Early Childhood Education for 15 years and she adores this program and swears it is top notch! Without question you will fall in love with this Big Blue Marble Academy like we have! ----- Author: Georgette Gordon Rating: 5/5 Date: 12/29/2023, 3:06:28 AM Review: BBMA is an awesome establishment. They truly care for the children like their own. Curriculum expands their mind through fun and exciting activities. They travel the globe while in the classroom and learn about a variety of cultures, foods and more. ----- Author: Chris Angel Gomez Rating: 5/5 Date: 9/11/2023, 4:53:11 PM Review: üåüüåüüåüüåüüåü We are beyond thrilled with our choice to enroll London at Big Blue Marble Academy in Coral Springs, FL. The commitment to excellence in education is evident in the fantastic curriculum and the wonderful staff and teachers. What's remarkable is the small student-to-teacher ratios, ensuring personalized attention for each child. At just two and a half, our daughter already recognizes colors, counts in both English and Spanish, and has an awareness of different countries and cultures. Choosing the right foundation for a child's education journey is crucial, and we're confident we've made the right choice with BBMA. London loves every moment there, and so do we! #ThankYouBBMA #EarlyEducationExcellence

All 4 of my grandchildren have gone here. Great school and staff.
Fantastic school and staff, I’m very happy to have my son attend the marble now for the past 2+ years. Staff is so nice to the families and my son has developed so much through his teachers and diverse curriculum that they offer at the big blue marble. Daily pictures of the kids and the activities are always nice and always makes me feel that my child is safe, happy, and learning. Can’t say enough good things about them.
Excelente escuela, las maestras del salón de bebes son muy buenas y con muy buena personalidad.
I've been sending my kids to BBMA in Coral Springs for 3 years now and have been very impressed with the Miss Cindy, Miss Cassandra and Miss Christa (office staff) and all the teachers. My oldest child started there in the 3s classroom (in 2022) and we encountered an issue with another child and the staff handled the matter immediately and professionally -- ensuring me and taking matters seriously. His 3s teacher (Miss Frieda) was also wonderful but is no longer there. My son continued at BBMA for VPK in 2023 and had Miss Yari -- she was a great teacher and my son adored her as well. BBMA had a wonderful VPK graduation ceremony -- not a dry eye in the house with how special they made it for the students and parents. In 2023, I also enrolled my newborn daughter in the infant class and absolutely loved her teachers. She is now in the toddler room and has had amazing teachers all along the way - including Miss Nyesha, Miss Sarah, and Miss TaShane! If I have a question, concern or comment, peeking my head into Miss Cassandra or Miss Cindy's office is always easy and met with understanding and helpfulness. Miss Christa at the front desk is also always helpful and friendlly. My biggest takeaway is communication -- I need to have open lines of communication with the staff and teachers to feel comfortable, they are great at this. Additionally, my children are always happy when I pick them up and seem to genuinely enjoy their time there.
We absolutely love BBMA. My daughter has been there since 2022 and she has had a great experience with her teachers. The administrative staff is just lovely as well! The school is clean and has nice play ground areas for the younger toddlers and a separate one for the older ones. There’s also a splash pad, garden, and community area. They do a great job of celebrating different holidays too! I recently started my 1yo son there too. I highly recommend this school!

**5 Stars** I couldn’t be happier with the care my child receives at Big Blue Marble Academy in Coral Springs! The staff is incredibly attentive, nurturing, professional and genuinely cares about each child's well-being and development. The facility is clean, safe, and filled with engaging activities that keeps my little one excited to go every day. The communication from the team is excellent, and I always feel informed about my child's progress. It’s such a relief to know that my child is in such a positive and loving environment. The school has enrichment programs such as dance, soccer, tumbling, etc. for the children to learn about. I highly recommend Big Blue Marble Academy to any parent!
I can’t say enough wonderful things about Big Blue Marble’s aftercare program. The staff is incredibly attentive, kind, and genuinely caring. My son has thrived in their care, and it’s clear that each team member is dedicated to creating a positive and nurturing environment. From their thoughtful interactions to their consistent communication, they truly go above and beyond. I’m so grateful for their support and the peace of mind they provide. Highly recommend!

Honestly too many amazing things to say about the school but just know ... Your heart will melt and you'll be greatful if you are able to get your kids in this school. The entire staff is amazing. Seriously i just want to send gift baskets daily. Love it here and I'm so thankful for them. Especially as a helicopter mom, I'm blessed to find the peace i was able to find at this school.
