They categorise their provision by age: "Bumble Bees" cares for infants and toddlers from birth to two years, offering a nurturing start to their educational journey.

"Blueberry Bees/Honey Bees" caters to two to three-year-olds, introducing them to varied activities and supervised risky play. Finally, "Buzzing Bees" prepares three to five-year-olds for school through challenging activities and essential life skills.
