Our purpose-built early learning service is located right in the middle of Panania, conveniently adjacent to the local Picnic Point Bowling & Social club. With its central location it can easily be accessed from wherever you are in Panania. All our Educators are highly qualified and possess not only Early Childhood Education knowledge and experience, but also have a deep love for working with children. At Panania, we are a community-minded Service where most of our children and staff live within the local area, and we strive to create strong community relationships and connections.

Our Panania preschool encompasses an innovative approach based on the discovery and exploration of respectful relationships with children. We follow this philosophy and offer children uninterrupted time for play, plenty of freedom, a calm and relaxed environment, cooperative relationships, and our full attention.

We would love for you to join our Busy Bees family at Panania. Book your tour today!

Sharon Harb

Service Manager

Hello, my name is Sharon and I am the Service Manager of Busy Bees at Panania.

I have been in Early Childhood for 25 years and hold an Associate Diploma in Child Studies which I obtained through Loftus TAFE in 1998 and a Bachelor of Teaching birth to five years which I obtained through Charles Sturt University in 2007.

I come from a large close-knit immediate and extended family and believe family plays an important role in shaping the lives of children. I believe Early Childhood also plays an important role in children’s lives and helps them to become responsible, capable and mindful citizens.

I believe that strong connections between children, Families and Educators are key to providing a high quality, high energy, and vibrant Service community.

I am also a strong advocate for staff development and believe our learning journey is always exciting and never finished.

I can’t wait to meet you!

Caring, supportive and intelligent educators and clean, beautiful facilities. A wonderful place for children to learn. My daughter started recently and instantly loved it and felt comfortable and excited to attend preschool each week.

They have helped my little boy come out of his shell so much since he started. He's not super shy any more which is lovely to see.

We have been here since it opened in January 2018. From the minute we viewed the centre the staff made us feel welcome and our son felt comfortable straight away.

My son attends Busy Bees at Panania and I can not recommend it highly enough. The staff are brilliant and consistent, which was important for my nervous son to see the same educators week in week out.

Busy Bees at Panania has a child and family centred approach that you feel from the moment you step through the door. If it isn’t the friendly greeting you receive, the community pantry/wardrobe will make you feel truly welcome.

My son transitioned to Busy Bees (from another daycare) almost 6 months ago and it has been such a wonderful experience. Today during pick up he didn't want to leave and said he wasn't ready yet!
