What our Families say.

Layla

Our son started at Busy Bees at Balcatta 6 weeks ago and we are incredibly happy with the high quality, comprehensive care. The amazing carers provide a safe and loving environment, making it fun as well as educational.

I cannot recommend Busy Bees at Balcatta enough. We have been very happy with the service and care provided to our son. The great staff provide a fun, safe and educational environment to help our little man grow.

At times it is hard to drop him off as he gets upset and doesn't want to stay, but the staff are very caring and always make him feel safe and settle him very quickly which makes the morning drop offs easier and sets our minds at ease. The centre is always clean and they fill the day with lots of fun activities. It's great to receive updates and pictures throughout the day so we can see him play, learn and grow. Thanks to all the staff you guys are fantastic!!!

Vanessa Q

My little girl who is quite the handful has been going here for the past two years and has settled in so well here, which I always thought would be an issue wherever she went.

Jacinta Zupanov

Great centre and the staff are lovely.

Lauren Greig

I was very anxious about leaving my son after a bad experience with a nanny, but the girls at Balcatta were so patient and loving towards him. Within two weeks he had settled so well and is learning so much every week !

Sasha Neame

My daughter just loves it and so do we. It's a very professional business but very friendly and personal. The management and day to day staff are caring and passionate about looking after children.

Laura Wise

My daughter has been attending for 10 months and loves it there. They are kind and friendly staff who care so much about the children’s well-being. A nurturing and warm environment. I wouldn’t send her anywhere else.

Kelsey H

I’m so grateful that I found such a perfect day care for my son. He’s has come on leaps and bounds in all aspects of his development and is so attached to his educator it’s heart warming.

Annette Wilson

My daughter has been going to Balcatta for the last month and she loves it! The staff have been wonderful in helping her to feel at home and also helping me through the new experience.

Georgina Fletcher

I highly recommend this Balcatta day care. The staff are fantastic and it's such a clean, comfortable and safe environment. My three year old loves it here.

Charmaine Rapp

It's so much more than a day care — they go above and beyond to instruct children in manners and behaviour, and encourage them to learn about the world around them, not just reading and counting.

Karen Kulevski

My daughter loves her days at school. The staff are all super friendly and keep parents well informed about all the amazing things our children are doing.

Tani Reith

The team are as passionate about my child's development as if he was their own. I could give no higher recommendation; when I tell my son he is going to 'school' today he's at the door saying "Hurry up Mummy!".

Joanna Skrzyszewska

Great day care with amazing teachers. We enrolled our kids after not the best experience at another centre and we never looked back. We've watched our kids blossom, become more confident and independent.

Amanda Houghton

The centre has provided an environment that saw my son adapt quickly to the change and is thriving every day. They are caring and compassionate, and truly want the best for our children to ensure they go into society as strong, confident contributors to our society.
