Our Educators all hold a recognised Early Childhood qualification. If you thought that you needed to send your child to a preschool the year before school, there is no need as our service will support and guide your child’s transition to kindergarten. We believe that school readiness starts right from your child’s first day at Bees Nees.

Yes. You are required to phone to make an appointment with the Director or 2IC. We prefer this rather than pop-ins, as it interrupts the children’s learning, and may minimise supervision. We like to give you adequate time to view our centre and program, and be available to answer any questions you may have.
If you do come unannounced, we may need to ask you to return at another time.
