The global Busy Bees Group has officially opened its first centre in North America, following the successful rebrand of nine Valley Child Care and Learning Centres.
Founded in 1983, Busy Bees is the UK’s largest childcare provider and operates almost 1,000 centres across Europe, Asia, North America, Australia and New Zealand.
This latest expansion advances Busy Bees’ commitment to delivering exceptional early childhood education and care services to families across North America.
The addition of nine centres complements their existing portfolio of centres in the United States and Canada, most of which operate under the BrightPath Early Learning brand.
Mary Ann Curran, CEO of Busy Bees North America, said: "Busy Bees is thrilled to bring our premium quality early years education and childcare to the families of Maricopa County, our vision to give every child the best start in life is very clear. From our School Directors to our passionate teachers and our support staff, we are wholeheartedly dedicated to the children and the families in our schools, and we cannot wait to continue to share that with even more families as Busy Bees.”
Busy Bees expands its North American portfolio, bringing its high-quality care and early years education to more children. Since 2017, Busy Bees has grown to 215 centres in North America with the capacity to educate and care for more than 25,000 children.
