We have been at Busy Bees from Nursery to Kindy and I can honestly say all the staff feel like an extension of our family. Our boy was excited to go to kindy each day as he loved his teachers as well as his friends. We have felt supported all through his journey to big school and will sorely miss everyone here. Was a great community to be a part of.

The educators are indeed so friendly and caring. I always felt like he was in good hands. They have fun events like dress up days and theme days. The kinder offering is a step above with the kids learning about major artists like Frida Kahlo and Picasso, for example. Dyan the kinder teacher is really passionate about kids education. They had an art exhibition too which was really fun. Literacy and numeracy was a focus and my son was/is super prepared for school as a result.

My daughter went there for years, from 9 months to 5 years old. The staff is amazing, both educators and manager, super professional, patient, warm and lovely! Quality learning and fun educational activities and experiences (STEM science experiments, space, art, first aid, etc). Highly recommended!

I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to Busy Bees for the wonderful care given to both my children.My daughter initially experienced some separation anxiety, but with the support and patience of the educators she overcame this and came to feel very safe, happy, and confident at the centre. The environment is very warm and nurturing, and all the teachers, the manager, and the admin staff are always friendly, approachable, and professional.My son has been attending since he was around 16 months old, and now, as a two‑year‑old, he has learned so much and has grown in his social, emotional, and communication skills. The educators are very caring and engaging, and they provide a variety of activities that support his development every day. The centre is very clean and well maintained, and the food provided is healthy and of high quality, with the kitchen visible and open, which is very reassuring as a parent.We are extremely sad to be leaving Busy Bees, and the only reason we are leaving is because our family is moving permanently; otherwise, I would never choose to leave this centre. I would highly recommend Busy Bees to any family looking for a safe, caring, and high‑quality childcare service for their children.

My 4-year-old daughter attended Busy Bee Balcatta, and I feel very emotional writing this review. I spent a long time searching for a childcare Centre that truly understood my daughter’s needs—somewhere she would feel happy, safe, and genuinely supported. I am incredibly grateful that we found this Centre. Busy Bee Balcatta has given our family more than we could have ever expected. The support from the Manager, Room leader and all the educators has been amazing. My husband and I felt completely confident leaving our daughter there each morning, knowing she was in caring and capable hands. The educators are kind, patient, and attentive. They encouraged my daughter to engage in activities, maintained excellent and prompt communication, and her progress and happiness were clearly evident. The Centre is clean and well maintained, and the children enjoy yoga and many fun, engaging activities. Given my daughter’s individual needs, I am deeply thankful to the entire team for their patience, understanding, and dedication in supporting her development and our family. Overall, I highly recommend Busy Bee Balcatta to families looking for a warm, clean, and safe environment with friendly, caring staff who truly support children’s learning, play, and wellbeing. Thank you so much Busy Bee Balcatta.

Most of these reviews are from people who have never stepped foot in busybees Coorparoo. Don't get me wrong. The automated replies from head office are not great and I think people deserve better replies. My child has been at this centre for over 3 years. As a parent, I was there throughout this whole situation that people are leaving reviews about. Yes, it was a terrible thing that happened and a really sad situation. The child was loved by staff, but unfortunately was quite the Houdini who actually escaped and then ultimately passed under his mother's care, let alone staff who had to look after a lot more children at once due to Queensland ratio regulations. All staff directly involved in this incident are no longer employed by busybees and most of the staff there now have no idea about anything that occurred that sad, sad day. The staff and management who are there now are amazing. And everyone calling for the centre to "be shut down" etc are targeting completely innocent peoples livelihoods and jobs, who again, were not working there in 2023 and are trying to make a living and look after the lovely children who currently attend. They have all had professional development for something they were not even there for. The centre has been through robust changes, security tightened, cameras installed, everything. The care my child has received is absolutely outstanding. My child has grown in confidence and has absolutely been nurtured and cared for, loved and beautifully educated for their whole time there so far and I have complete faith that their last year there will be just as lovely. The staff at busybees are hardworking, passionate and lovely and I can't thank each and every one of them who have still pushed through and work so hard even with the vitriol that has been thrown around on Google and social media. The staff are attentive, kind, patient, caring and do their utmost to make sure every child in their care are loved, taught, safe and happy. Please think about all this before you decide to turn away from this centre. Everywhere you look will have good reviews and bad reviews, you never know what centre is the best fit for your child until you're there. I promise you, if you came for a tour, you would see how warm, happy and fun this centre is. I would happily send any of my future children there. The staff make me feel so glad my child goes there. And I'd never change my choice. Families that have been there long enough, or even new families enrolled and sending siblings there know how lovely this centre is. Just do yourself a favour and see for yourself. If not, fine. I can't change your mind. I can't also change the minds of trolls who have no clue whatsoever about this centre. Shame on you for targeting innocent people. Thank you to the staff who are there right now, loving, educating and caring for my child and all of the other children in the centre. Families who are there now know and appreciate every single one of the staff currently working there Peace out.

The administration staff are warm, friendly, caring and professional. All food is prepared and served on site. The educators are so amazing and really care about every child that attends. The learning materials and teaching styles are age-appropriate and respectful of each child's cultural and ethnic heritage. The learning opportunities at this centre promote your child's success in school. My grandson loves going to Busy Bees. I highly recommend this centre. A huge thank you to all Staff for their wonderful work.
