  • S14 Ep11: Choosing Childcare with Confidence: Insights from Busy Bees’ Early Years Expert
    In this episode of The Netmums Podcast, Wendy Golledge and Alison Perry are joined by early years expert Jenny Shaw from Busy Bees Nurseries. They talk about the challenges and joys of choosing the right childcare, and how Busy Bees' new “Bee Curious” curriculum is setting children up for success through playful learning. Jenny shares her insights from over 25 years in early years education, discussing the importance of trust between parents and educators, and how nurseries like Busy Bees focus on both care and education. They chat about the overwhelming feelings parents face when selecting childcare, the benefits of nursery education over pre-school, and how to prepare children (and parents) for the transition to nursery life. The conversation also explores the daily activities at Busy Bees, from singing and storytelling to outdoor play, and how these contribute to a child's development. Jenny provides practical tips for parents on supporting their child's learning at home without adding to the 'to-do' list, emphasising the importance of communication, language, and vocabulary development. Busy Bees new “Bee Curious” curriculum is designed to give children a head start in life, setting them up to succeed.
