Busy Bees childcare centre in Southern River is a warm and welcoming environment, where you’ll find spacious open plan rooms, stimulating outdoor play areas, and a calm and relaxed culture where children are nurtured through their crucial first years.

Jemma Curtin is our passionate Service Manager, and has 10 years’ experience in the Early Childhood industry. Jemma and her team of qualified Educators take a play-based learning approach that encourages children to explore, try new things, and build their confidence for school.

Our amazing outdoor area is well equipped with a range of play equipment for all ages and a range of inviting activities, such as our vegetable and herb garden created and cared for by the children. Our extensive range of quality toys, natural resources and books are regularly updated, providing endless opportunities for children to play, learn and discover new things.

We believe that quality early learning does more than just prepare children for school — it builds resilience, vital social skills and independence.

Service Manager

Hello, my name is Jemma and I am the Service Manager at Busy Bees on Bletchley.

I have a Diploma in Children’s Services and I have been in the Early Childhood and Care industry for over 10 years. I have previously been a Team Leader and more recently worked as the Assistant Manager before stepping up to Service Manager.

I enjoy working in the Early Childhood and Care sector and getting to see children everyday learning and growing first hand as they flourish, and also the children teaching and sharing their knowledge with me.

At Busy Bees on Bletchley we aim to provide a supportive, welcoming and inclusive environment that feels like a home away from home for our children and families.

In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family and scooting around the river, or cooking and baking for my family and friends.

Assistant Service Manager

Hello, my name is Courtney and I am the Assistant Service Manager at Busy Bees on Bletchley.

I have been in the childcare industry for 14 years, I have my diploma in children services and have worked with ages 0 to 12 years.

I have always loved teaching and being around children, as I have a few nieces and nephews. My favourite thing about this industry is providing the children with the opportunity to learn and discover, when they accomplished something for the very first time it’s an amazing feeling watching their faces and the joy and accomplishment they display.

Busy Bees on Bletchley is a lovely warm and family-friendly place. We have a great team here that makes me feel valued and heard. The children are always put first—their happiness and learning are the priority—and we making both families and children feel welcomed at all times.

In my spare time I love to read, go to the movies and go out for dinner with friends.

A reputable, bright, friendly and happy day care! I was so hesitant initially placing my daughter into day care and have been pleasantly surprised at how the centre has opened my daughter's world in terms of friends, creativity, confidence and imagination.
