Busy Bees is a family childcare business in operation since 1990, with a vision to provide exceptional childcare in a loving environment, with a unique “Home from Home” atmosphere. Busy Bees began in our family home and has expanded over the last 35 years enabling us to provide and maintain the highest standards of care and education. We have a purpose built facility located in South County Dublin catering for children aged 6 months to 7 years. We strive to ensure that each child feels safe, secure, loved and most importantly that they have fun! The Busy Bees team is the beating heart of our Hive. We have staff that have worked with us for more than 20+ years and newer staff too who bring fresh ideas and creativity. The mix of loyal long time team members and new teachers is great for collaboration, training, support and team building.

We have a state-of-the-art kitchen, 4 playground spaces, a dedicated sleep room for our smallest bees and a cosy and comfortable  staffroom for our team to relax in. We have fantastic relationships with our parents and families and recently have seen mommies and daddies who were Busy Bees themselves years ago coming back with their own children for us to care for now. It is truly a “Home from Home”.
