What our Families say.

Samia A

Such a beautiful, welcoming and family oriented service.

Nerissa Bain

Highly recommend Follyfoot Farm by Busy Bees. The centre is always clean. The children are always happy and the educators are amazing. They go above and beyond to meet each child's individual needs and interests.

Eli Mags

Follyfoot Farm by Busy Bees has been an amazing environment for both my little ones to attend. The staff are simply amazing and care for your children as they would there own.

Jane Peters

I have been part of the Follyfoot Farm family for the last 7 years. I have always found the staff to be polite, friendly and every teacher always greets my sons enthusiastically and warmly, even if they have not been in their room.

Liz McFadden

My son has been at Follyfoot Farm by Busy Bees for 2.5 years and sometimes I think he prefers being there than at home. The educators are great and I have never felt worried about my sons needs not being met.

Georgie Restifo

Amazing childcare facility! All educators have been kind, supportive and care for the children like their own. I've used this centre for a number of years with my children and have found the management and staff professional at all times.

Emma Craig

My daughter attended Follyfoot Farm for three years and my son still attends. Every time we drop my son here my daughter comments on how much she wishes she could still go to Follyfoot Farm because she loves it so much and she is still always eager to come inside and say hi to all of the educators!

The educators and manager have been so very supportive to the children and I. They have always eased my mind when the children have needed extra TLC for various reasons and especially when my babies first started there and I had natural ‘mummy anxiety’ when I returned to work. The staff were always happy to receive my calls and let me know what a lovely day the kids were having. The centre sends videos, photos and curriculum updates letting me know how the children develop as they learn and play at the centre. Both children have made beautiful friendships with both peers and educators, and Follyfoot Farm has always been a happy safe place for them. I highly recommend this service.

Marguerite Schultz

We had all of our children here and could not have been happier. The staff were warm and caring, and our children were loved and cared for. What a great place for their formative years! Five stars!

Rebecca Webb

This is the most amazing centre. I have sent my two children and they absolutely love it. The staff are so caring, kind and professional. Would not send my children anywhere else and I would highly recommend to my family and friends.

Reah Browning

I have had both children go to Follyfoot Farm from 4 months of age [Follyfoot Farm Juniors] right through to starting school. The facilities are brilliant, clean, near new and very inviting.

The staff are so welcoming and both my children and I have established lasting friendships with the staff far beyond the front gate — I call them our 2nd family. They are genuine, caring and dedicated educators with beautiful hearts. There is such a humbling community spirit within the walls of the centre. The farm is an extraordinary learning environment in conjunction with their sustainability initiatives, animal foster programs and dedicated outdoor hands on learning. This is an early education centre like no other. We are so fortunate to have been a part of the Follyfoot Farm family. Highly recommend every single aspect without hesitation!

Kat Clydesdale

I couldn't be happier with this service. From day one I felt at ease and confident my little one was in good hands. Communication from the staff is exceptional. The outdoor learning, interactions with the farm animals and nature is so special. All round beautiful centre.

Kelly Robson

Genuine educators! They are all wonderful and happy people, who genuinely show compassion and understanding for my child’s needs and wants.

Caitlin Burden

Amazing preschool. The educators go above and beyond. There are always amazing activities and visitors organised. The outdoor area is huge and then there is the farm that the kids get to enjoy. Cant recommend highly enough.
