What our Families say.

Mel

Busy Bees at Springfield Lakes is outstanding. Our daughter has absolutely thrived there — she's a confident, happy and social girl, with an inquiring mind

and full of curiosity, and that's thanks to the nurturing environment, and range of learning opportunities provided by the educators. The educators go above and beyond to provide innovative, fun and engaging learning experiences for the children. There is also a real sense of community and family at the centre. I cannot recommend Busy Bees at Springfield Lakes enough — its been amazing for our family!

Sandy Carruth

Lovely, caring educators and great outdoor play areas, even in the nursery which I love for my 8 month old baby.

Amazing service manger who goes out of her way to help you and lovely chef too who makes lots of yummy healthy food for the kids. All the staff here are great!

The nursery carers are so welcoming, friendly and work really hard to keep all the babies happy and having fun. Love the Storypark and ChildcareNow apps.

So glad I was able to get my baby into this childcare, as it was the best choice for us and my boy is settling in well and loves it.

Steph “Tephy” van Emmerik

Amazing facility with very wonderful educators. It has an amazing outdoor play area. My son has come a long way since he started attending this centre. 10/10

We searched high and low for a childcare centre for our girls and was so unhappy with other centres in the area. We came across Busy Bees and to say we are so happy is an understatement.

We have never been happier at a childcare centre! The staff are so lovely, they always chat and let us know how she went and are so welcoming in the mornings, the manager is amazing and my girls absolutely adore her and come running into her office almost everyday for a hug. Thank you so much Busy Bees for being so amazing and finally giving us a childcare centre we are so 100% happy with!

My daughter was doing her Kindy at Busy Bees at Springfield Lakes. She is at Prep now and yet she keeps telling me she misses the teachers at Busy Bees very much
