Based on discovery and exploration, Busy Bees Early Learning's innovative approach to early childhood education lets every child find their unique voice. Children have uninterrupted time for play, plenty of freedom, a calm and relaxed environment, cooperative relationships and full attention. They believe quality Early Learning does more than just prepare children to become eager school students – it builds resilience, vital social skills and independence.
At Busy Bees, children’s voices are not only heard but nurtured and supported. What makes you happy? What makes you sad? What would you like to do today? These are some of the many questions that Busy Bees Educators ask children each day, making your child feel important, valued and empowered so they can be at their best. These questions are also important for the knowledge, understanding and value that can be obtained through the child’s voice when they're answering.

Nursery
Babies (6 Weeks - 1 Year)
From birth to one year of age, your child is actively absorbing the world around them, taking note of what they see and hear. They mimic expression and movement and are very alert to sound and visual stimulation.
At this age children develop a strong sense of connection with our Educators who expertly interact in a nurturing way, extending their learning and sense of security.
Tiny Toddlers (1 - 2 Years)
As your child enters early Toddler years, they become quite the little mover and shaker.
They're starting to interact verbally and non-verbally with the world around them, making their voice heard. They may be starting to attempt to stand on their own and possibly even take a few steps. They may begin to notice how others around them are feeling and become sad when they see others sad or laugh when they see others laughing.
During this developmental period, children really start to find their feet and strive for independence under the watchful eye of Busy Bee's supportive Educators.

Toddlers
Toddlers (2-3 Years)
At this age, your child is curious about the world around them, learning more about their place within it. Many toddlers love to express themselves by creating art; experimenting with colour, squiggles and marks and they love showing off their creations.
Toddlers also enjoy perfecting physical development skills such as running, jumping and dancing.
Play becomes more active and social as children engage with each other, creating role-play scenarios.
Often, everyday scenarios such as grocery shopping or visiting the doctor, as they learn to make sense of routine experiences.
During this period, language begins to flourish with toddlers developing the confidence to verbally communicate needs, likes and dislikes.

Busy Bee's toddler rooms are vibrant and challenging learning spaces designed to engage your toddler’s sense of curiosity and discovery. Educators use their keen eye and expertise to create learning environments that inspire and invite children to learn, play and interact with their surroundings and each other while building confidence and independence.

Pre-Kindy
Pre-Kindy (3-4 Years)
The age of 3-4 years is a time of big social and emotional development for children as they begin to develop stronger friendships with peers.
Children begin speaking in longer sentences and becoming more imaginative in play, setting the stage for more cooperative group play involving role play or complex fantasy scenarios!
At this age, they really begin to learn about their place in the world and their ability to influence things and people around them.
Educators focus on nurturing individuality and building confidence, while also encouraging children to build cooperative and respectful relationships with others.
