About Bumblebees Creche Wexford
The Foundation
Bumblebees Creche Wexford has been in operation since January 2012, providing quality care and education for children in a nurturing environment. Our fully qualified staff are dedicated to implementing an emerging and inquiry-based curriculum, ensuring that each child receives the attention and support they need to thrive. It is owned and managed by Helen Scallan who has over 20 years experience working with children, and we pride ourselves on our very low turnover of staff which ensures stability, consistency and solid family relationships. All our staff are qualified in first aid, food safety and Children first.
Ethos of the Service
We will ensure an inclusive culture reocgnising that every child is an individual and has it's own learning style. We believe that all children are unique but share many similarities, thus promoting equality and diversity throughout the service. Bumblebees Creche will promote and nurture the identity of each child attending the service and ensure that their emotional and phyiscal well being is of paramount importance always.
