Hello, my name is Sheena, and I am the Lead infant teacher at Bees Learning Tree I recently obtained my Child Development Associate. I was born and raised in Philadelphia with my parents and my younger brother. After graduating high school, I started pursuing a career in taking care of life’s important gift “children”. I started at a very young age working with kids and I grew to love watching their different behaviors and helping form them into awesome human beings. I took some time off to raise my two children. My son Safee who is the brains of the Family, and my daughter Surah who is our energetic princess that keeps us busy. I am married and enjoy spending time with my family.

Hi everyone, my name is Bushra Shah and I’m from Swat Pakistan. I am fluent in two languages Pushto and English. I have been working with Bees Learning tree since 2015. In 2018, I graduated from Westchester University with a bachelor’s degree in Business Management. I first started working when I was in high school at an afterschool program part time. There I learned skills to work with different children and how to be very patient. I also learned to handle any situation to make sure children were getting the best care. I am grateful to have had that experience. A year later, I joined Bees learning Tree and that was one of my greatest experiences where I gained more knowledge about kids and their needs. I build many relationships with children and their families. I have worked with all children of all ages, and I love watching the children learn and grow. It’s amazing to see how much they change during a couple of years. In my spare time I like to be outdoors, hiking, traveling, and spending time with my family, I also, enjoy a hot cup of tea and a great workout at home or at the gym. I am so lucky to have the opportunity to work with such wonderful children, families, and co-workers!

Hi, my name is Zyairah!  I am 25 years old! I have 2 years of experience in child care and recently got my Child Development Associate. I am an assistant teacher in the younger preschool class. I love working with the children and it's awesome to see their little personalities shine through! It means so much to me to know I am making a difference in the kid's life and I truly believe the children are the future so I am doing my best to prepare them and have them be well-rounded school-age children.
