Professional care led by the Centre Manager (Wendy) which was reflected by her lovely staff. The atmosphere was very family and community orientated and they always showed a genuine care for our little ones safety and development. The centre has an awesome outdoor area with plenty of room to play. The sand pit is HUGE! We were treated like family and trusted the amazing team with our son from nursery through to preschool. Our experience was really positive and we would recommend Busybees - Yerrabi Ponds to all families!

Our experience with Busy Bees has been excellent. The team shows a high level of professionalism and care, and they always take the time to understand the children’s needs. Our daughter has become more confident and independent since attending, and she talks about her educators and friends at home all the time. The centre provides a nurturing environment with great activities that keep her engaged and happy. We appreciate the strong communication and the effort the staff put into creating such a supportive space for families. Highly recommend.

Response from the owner 30 Oct 2025

Thanks so much for taking the time to share your thoughts, Angus. We really appreciate it. We agree the team at our Gungahlin early learning centre are wonderful. We are glad to hear you and your daughter are enjoying the Busy Bees experience 🐝 Warmest wishes, The National Support Team
