Welcome to Busy Bees Child Care Centre, we are a privately owned purpose built long day care centre licensed for 44 children from 0 – 5 years. WWe are opening from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm. We are open for 50 weeks of the year. We are closed on Public Holidays.
The children are grouped according to their age and development. Busy Bees has three groups:
- Under 2s
- 2 to 3 year olds
- 3 to 5 year olds
Our centre program reflects an Emergent Curriculum approach that is supported by contemporary research in Early Childhood Education. Emergent Curriculum recognises children’s interest and individual capabilities as being the driving force of their learning. Observations, conversations and photographs are used to identify children’s interests which are documented in their individual portfolios, through photographs, daily day books and displays throughout the centre. This information is then used as a basis for all indoor and outdoor experiences.
Throughout the year staff also undertake more structured developmental observations and plan according to children’s emerging development. These experiences help children who need further development in specific areas i.e. physical, cognitive, language, social and emotional.
The food is provided by the centre. Fresh products are purchased on a weekly basis in line with NSW Dietary Guidelines. Our menu reflects the diversity and specific requirements of families that attend the centre. We aim to make connections between children’s home and centre experiences by providing children with food that is relevant to their culture and family.
Our fees are as follows:
0 -2 $70.00 per day
2- 5 $58.00 per day
All families are eligible for a minimum percentage CCB. Some families may be eligible for more government funding depending on their combined family income. Should you require information regarding the CCB please speak to the centre Director or contact the Family Assistance Office on 13 61 50.
We look forward to showing you our lovely centre and discussing your child care needs.
