3 Bees Early Learning Centre is a family owned and run operation that focuses on providing quality care and education within their close-knit community. The centre features places for 47 attendances per day, which means room numbers are kept small and personalised. The educators are also assigned to the same room year-round in order to develop relationships and focus on each child as an individual. 3 Bees ELC pride themselves on their unique approach to early education, quality care and creating a community all children and families can be a part of.

The owners of 3 Bees ELC engaged with Xap as they needed software that could run alongside their already established standards of care. It needed to assist their processes while enhancing the experience for both educators and families. Approved Provider, Stuart Mayne, explains “Xap is an inclusive software which benefits our team as it allows educators to make program notes and observations in real time. We can then send these directly to families, whether it be an individual parent or a group update on centre activities.” 

These features allow Stuart and his team to continue engaging in a strong relationship with their families. In addition, Stuart also expressed the benefits beyond Xap’s software.“Xap is a well put together piece of software, it’s so easy to use”, he explains, “but the best feature is the support team. It’s real people helping the users and it’s great to know that there is a team of competent and friendly support staff that I can talk to, or email, to work out any issue I have. Xap is by far the easiest to use 3rd party software provider in the childcare industry.”
