About
The Beehive is an early childhood education center in Denver, CO, founded in 2021. Located on the third floor of the Republic Plaza annex, it serves children ages 6 weeks to 6 years with capacity for up to 82 students. The center offers a year-round, play-based program operating Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., generally aligned with Guild’s working days. Enrollment is available to Guild and Beehive families with full-time or part-time options (typically M/W/F or T/Th) and is currently open to friends and families of any Guild employees.
The Beehive maintains teacher-to-child ratios and group sizes that exceed licensing requirements. Each classroom has three dedicated teachers, and infant rooms enroll up to 10 infants with three caregivers. Facilities include an adjacent outdoor patio for daily outdoor play, a large multi-purpose room with an accordion wall that creates an indoor–outdoor gross motor space, and a mother’s room to support nursing and feeding.
Program leadership features experienced early childhood educators who support a developmentally appropriate, play-based approach that emphasizes social-emotional growth, curiosity, and community.
