Busy Bees at O’Connor welcomes you with warm and inviting learning spaces, an art studio, and large outdoor playgrounds tailored for each age group — with sandpits, slides, a bike track, a swing, and a vegetable garden and bush tucker garden — where children are encouraged to ignite their sense of curiosity and discovery.
At Busy Bees at O’Connor, your child will benefit from:
Our O’Connor childcare in Perth is inspired by the Reggio Emilia learning approach and has created natural environments for children to explore, experiment and enjoy imaginative play. We view each child as strong, capable, resilient and unique learners with an abundance of wonder. We focus on teaching sustainability and respect for the environment through our worm farm, compost, bush tucker garden, vegetable garden, and use of recycled and natural materials in our art studio.
We are proud to have a strong reputation in the community for our friendly and dedicated Educators who make everyone feel at home. Our multicultural and bilingual team — Polish, Russian, Japanese, Mandarin, Malay, Afrikaans, Portuguese, Spanish, Farsi and Bengali — love to share their languages and cultures with the children. Children are given the opportunity to extend their learning through the Flexible Friends yoga program on Thursdays and the Happy Feet Fitness program on Tuesdays that combines dance, music and the joy of active play (optional paid extras).
Our O’Connor Kindergarten has a dedicated house set up to inspire stimulating research and exploration. Each room is set up to focus on different skill sets, such as writing, role play, and construction to support the current learning programs. Children are allowed the independence to choose the areas that spark their curiosity and how they would like to engage with learning each day.
We would love to have you join our Busy Bees family at O’Connor. We look forward to meeting your family! Book your tour today.
Service Manager
Hello, my name is Joanne Nocon and I’m the Service Manager of Busy Bees at O’Connor.
In my 15 years of dedicated service in childcare, I’ve learned that every child is a unique universe of potential waiting to be explored. I believe that childhood is a precious time of discovery, where the seeds of curiosity, empathy, and creativity are sown.
Through play-based learning and hands-on experiences, I encourage children to question, experiment, and make sense of the world around them. I believe that every moment is a teachable moment, and I am committed to nurturing each child’s natural curiosity and love for learning. I am excited to welcome you to our centre!
Assistant Service Manager
Hi, my name is Magda and I am the Assistant Service Manager at Busy Bees at O’Connor.
I am so excited to be sharing your child’s early learning journey with you. I have worked in the Early Childhood industry for five years and hold a Diploma in Early Education and Care. During that time, I have worked in various positions including Educator, Lead Educator, OSHC Service Coordinator, and now Assistant Service Manager
My favourite part about being Assistant Director at Busy Bees at O’Connor is that I get to follow my passion for educating young children and mentoring other Educators along the way. I believe in providing a safe, welcoming, and secure environment for all families, children, and staff members. Each child should feel at home and be able to use their imagination and curiosity throughout the day.
During my spare time, I love to spend time with my family, cook, travel the world, and eat amazing food along the way.
Hopefully that says more about the quality of care than my parenting. There is a wonderful team there with lots of very special Educators who genuinely care about the children and also set up lots of stimulating and engaging activities. The garden space has been recently rejuvenated and it's a lovely big space for the children to play with lots of shade for summer. The manager runs the service excellently. Also, the food must be good as my little one eats meals there that she wouldn't eat at home. I would highly recommend to parents looking for a day care in the area.
The manager is a star, and the kids always come home happy (and tired). I would recommend the service to anyone in the area!
The staff are warm and welcoming; the activities are educational and fun; the food is nutritious and yummy; and there is a nice combination of inside rooms and outdoor play areas. My daughter has adapted really well to day care too and I believe this is due to the lovely, attentive, and caring staff. Within a month she was already familiar with the Educators and the environment, and was happily waving bye to me at drop-off. Thank you to Busy Bees at O’Connor for making our first experience with a day care so wonderful! I couldn’t recommend this centre highly enough!
Plus they gave me lots of guidance in caring for and supporting children and their families. Definitely recommend.
I only have good things to say about this centre — highly recommend.
The staff are all so warm and friendly to the little ones (and their families). His little legs kick in excitement when we drive up, he's very happy there. I thoroughly recommend the place.
The Management team have made our family feel very welcome and supported. My 12 month old and 2.5 year old have been attending for over 2 months and they love it. I feel comforted knowing my babies are receiving incredible care and learning opportunities by such beautiful staff. Thank you!
