At Clever Bee Academy, we understand that some children carry more than just backpacks into the classroom. They carry fear, confusion, and pain from past experiences—some too big for their age to process. That’s why we’ve created an environment where early education and emotional healing go hand in hand.
Our centers offering Child Trauma Therapy in Cleveland, Ohio are more than just schools—they’re nurturing communities that help children feel safe, understood, and empowered to grow.
Childhood trauma can take many forms—loss, instability at home, abuse, neglect, or exposure to frightening events. And while children may not always have the words to explain what they’re feeling, their behavior often speaks volumes.
Left unaddressed, trauma can interfere with brain development, relationships, and a child’s ability to thrive in school. But with the right support, healing is absolutely possible—and it begins with compassionate care in a space where children feel safe.
That’s the foundation of Child Trauma Therapy in Cleveland, Ohio at Clever Bee Academy.
At Clever Bee Academy, our trauma-informed model is built into everything we do. Whether your child is in preschool, toddler care, or after-school programming, they’ll be supported by trained professionals who recognize the signs of trauma and respond with empathy, patience, and care.
We don’t believe in “one-size-fits-all” education. Instead, we create personalized strategies—inside the classroom and through therapeutic support—that help each child build confidence, resilience, and healthy relationships.
Clever Bee Academy is proud to serve families across Cleveland, Ohio and the surrounding area. Our locations are staffed by passionate educators and therapists who understand the unique needs of young children working through trauma.
No matter which location you choose, you can count on Clever Bee Academy to prioritize your child’s emotional well-being alongside their educational journey.

Infants are born ready to learn and explore the world! Our infant child care classrooms are where child care begins and where your baby develops into a curious and active child. Purposeful play is integrated into every lesson to ensure your infant begins their path to learning with constructive and fun activities.
Toddlers are always on the go! Our toddler classrooms provide a safe environment where your child can explore and learn. Teachers promote self-care skills such as feeding, cleaning, and dressing. As you would expect from the best toddlers schools in the state, Clever Bee Academy Ohio will support your child’s large motor development and hand-eye coordination through a variety of activities such as kicking balls, tossing, writing, drawing, and lacing. Ultimately, we help prepare toddlers for the more challenging preschool programs.
Welcome to Clever Bee Academy’s preschool program! Our preschool classrooms provide daytime child care to meet children’s needs for continued growth and preparation into a key transition – entering kindergarten at the end of the program. We believe that preschool programs promote a healthy adjustment in this period, helping build healthy transitions and attachments in the future.
More than 70 percent of U.S. children have parents who work away from home, leaving 15 million youth unsupervised by adults when the school day ends.

Our summer camp program provides a variety of hands-on experiences that encourage critical thinking, problem solving, innovation, creativity, and collaboration. Enriching teacher-led projects stimulate child discovery through small and large group activities.
