Answer: Raterbee.com is an online community for parents, by parents. It is a place to exchange information about the classes and activities in which parents enroll their kids. Parents leave reviews and comments about classes/activities for other parents - it is that simple. Additionally, the Parent Buzz! is the Raterbee.com community forum for exchanging additional class information, parenting tips, recipies, whatever!
[Top of Page]Answer: When we moved to a new city with our preschool-aged child, we had a hard time figuring out which were the best activities to sign up for. So we tried lots of classes... some were great, some a waste of time and money. We thought it would be great if there was a clearinghouse for information about kids' activities - something where you not only found out about the class itself, but got real-life feedback from the parents who were there. Raterbee.com is our answer!
[Top of Page]Answer: No! Raterbee.com is absolutely free!
[Top of Page]Answer: Parents like you enter
information about the classes your kids take. You provide basic information about the class
itself; type of class, location, address, city, etc. Then we ask you to evaluate the class across
various categories (value, facilities, instructor, etc.) If it's a honey of a class - give it an A.
If you got stung - give it an F. Or maybe you thought it was somewhere in between.
Finally, we ask you to enter comments. This is where you can get specific - what did you really like?
What advice would you give to other parents? (e.g. "They keep the kids moving. Be sure your little one
has comfy shoes!" or "The room is a bit chilly, bring a sweater.") We simply ask that you
be fair, courteous, and honest.
You are free to search for classes already in our database, or add one of your own. Once added, others
will be able to add their reviews too!
In addition to the ratings, be sure to check out The Parent Buzz!, Raterbee.com's
community forum. Here you can post and reply to questions from other parents, exchange information
or parenting tips - whatever. It is up to you!
