Busy Bees Church Street

We love the staff and the atmosphere, our little man loves to attend his school

We have had such a great experience with Busy Bees Church Street. The teachers are caring, supportive, and genuinely amazing with the kids. Our son absolutely loves going there and has grown so much in confidence and learning since attending. It’s such a nice feeling knowing he is happy, safe, and well looked after every day. The team always communicates well and creates such a welcoming environment for both children and parents. Highly recommend Busy Bees Church Street to any family looking for a caring daycare 🐝💛

We had a really mixed experience with Busy Bees Church Street, especially in the Totara Room (over 2s). There were several moments where communication and supervision just didn’t meet the standard we expected. On one afternoon, we arrived to pick up our child and noticed clear marks on his face that hadn’t been mentioned to us. We only received an explanation after we asked about it, and we had to request the written report ourselves. For something that involved his face and head area, we would have appreciated a call or message straight away. This wasn’t the only concern. Our child slipped into a water play area on another day, and on a separate occasion when we arrived slightly early, the team didn’t immediately know where he was. We raised these issues at the time and were told adjustments would be made, but the follow-up situation still left us uneasy. To be fair, the Koru Room (under 2s) staff were fantastic — caring, attentive, and consistent. But our experience after the move to the Totara Room made us feel unsure about staying on. We’re sharing this so other parents can have a full picture when making their decision.
