Unfortunately, our experience was not very positive overall. Communication from the educators was extremely limited, and we rarely received photos, updates, or any meaningful information about how our daughter’s day was going. As parents, it felt like we were simply dropping her off every day without having any idea about her activities, learning, eating, sleeping, or overall wellbeing throughout the day. Whenever we asked for daily updates, many educators themselves seemed unsure or unable to provide proper information. Another concern was the constant change of staff in the classroom — almost every second day there seemed to be a new part-time educator present, which made it difficult to build consistency, trust, and familiarity for both children and parents. The reason we are giving 2 stars instead of 1 is because the centre did accommodate us and extended our childcare arrangement for an additional 2 months after our relocation plans unexpectedly changed at eleventh hour, which we genuinely appreciated. However, overall, we strongly feel there is significant room for improvement in communication, parent engagement, and classroom consistency.

Hello Hitesh, Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback. We have shared this with the new State Manager for NSW who has been working tirelessly to increase the continuity, consistency and communication at our New Lambton early learning centre. If you would like to speak with her directly, we encourage you to send your details to info@busybees.edu.au. Warmest wishes, The National Support Team

We sent both our girls to busy bees new lambton for over 2 years and they both loved their time here. Our youngest daughter who is 2 especially loved the workers and always came home so happy and regulated. She would walk straight in and be met with cuddles and love. I am so so grateful to the wonderful staff in the adventurers room. I have to give special mention to the beautiful patsy who just has a passion for the kids. Chelsea who was our daughters favourite in the babies room and really bonded with. Thank you to Ella, shay, and so many of the other ladies. We will forever be thankful ❤️

Response from the owner 26 May 2026

Thank you, Lily, for sharing such a heartfelt review. It’s wonderful to hear that both of your daughters enjoyed their time with us over the years and that your youngest felt so happy, settled and supported each day. We’re sure Patsy, Chelsea, Ella, Shay and the rest of the team will be incredibly touched by your kind words and recognition. Thank you for trusting us to be part of your family’s early learning journey! Warmest, Busy Bees National Support team
