Lovely nursery with caring staff. Have sent all three of my children here over the last 8 years and can say that this nursery has got better and better year upon year. The setting is really nice with a big outside space garden. My children have always enjoyed coming to nursery and sad when they leave. The nursery manage is always very friendly and supportive. I would highly recommend this nursery.
Thank you for your kind words. We are glad to hear your three children have all loved coming to our Northolt Nursery!
My sons been with the nursery for nearly a year now and the progression I’ve seen in him socially and verbally is unbelievable. He loves going in and the staff are just amazing. Would recommend it to anyone and everyone!
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review! This will be passed on to the team at Northolt!
My daughter has been attending this nursery since she was 2 years old and I returned back to work. The staff are friendly and my daughter is always happy on drop off and happy on pick up. Any issues raised have always been addressed swiftly.
Thank you for your kind words. We are very happy to hear that your daughter is always happy going and coming home from nursery!
Hungry Caterpillar Northolt branch continues to provide wonderful care to both my children in the caterpillar room and butterfly room. The staff are extremely kind, considerate and very knowledgeable. They have put immense effort into developing both my children. The nursery is spacious, fun and cleverly laid out for the child’s development. The team are aware of children’s likes, dislikes and needs and they always adapt to this. They have always been extremely understanding and always willing to support us in any flexible manner they can, most importantly, my children love being in the nursery. We are so pleased we decided to go with the Northolt team.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review! We are so happy to hear that both of your children love being at the nursery and thank you for choosing Northolt!
Overall good nursery some of the staff seems to really care about the child. Has helped my child’s speech as she has speech difficulties. However if you are on funded sessions your hours and days will be changing between terms or half terms all the time and you won’t have a say in it as the priority is for self funding kids and that affects my child’s routine and speech when days gets reduced. Thank you
Thank you for taking the time to review our nursery, we are sorry to hear that your experience with the change of nursery sessions and days has not been positive. We aim to ensure changes do not affect the routine or development for the children, please be reassured that we have an open door policy if you would like to speak to us we are always available.
The staff are very communicative and make full use of the app with updates of my daughter's progress and activities.
Thank you for your lovely review! This will be passed on to the team at Northolt!
My son really enjoyed his time in the nursery he settled in really well and still even now he is in full time school. He talks about all the teachers and the friends that he made during his time. I can't thank the nursery enough for the support and guidance they have given us.
Thank for your lovely review. This will be passed onto the team at Northolt!
Amazing nursery with lovely staff. They helped my daughter settle in her first few weeks after starting and every time I take her in she's smiling so I know she is in safe hands!
Thank for your lovely review. This will be passed onto the team at Northolt!
I've sent both of my children to Hungry Caterpillar Day Nursery - Northolt now. One 6 years ago, my son, which made the decision to send my daughter here so easy. This is a wonderful nursery and they go above and beyond for the children. They are amazing with my child and have made it so easy for us in regard to her allergy plan. They have my daughter's best interest at heart and she's never cried or struggled to settle here. She knows every worker's name and loves the nursery so much! As a parent knowing this is her happy place makes my heart so warm and that couldn't have been without this team!
Thank you for your lovely review. This will be passed onto the team at Northolt!
My daughter absolutely loves nursery. I've seen a noticeable difference in her confidence, appetite and development. She doesn't cry when she's dropped off and she adores her key member of staff. The staff are outstanding and communication means I'm able to enjoy frequent updates of her day whilst I'm at work. I would highly recommend to other mummies. My daughter is very happy here.

My daughter has flourished since joining the nursery and continues to do so with her learning journey. I would highly recommend to family and friends based on their high standards and how this compares with the benchmark. All staff make 100% effort and ensure we have peace of mind that our daughter is in excellent hands with their great communication. The staff have become like family to our daughter and she speaks to highly of her teachers on a daily basis, what more could a parent ask for?!
Thank you for your lovely review. This will be passed onto the team at Northolt!
The standards of the nursery are very high. The staff at all levels are all attentive to each child's needs. My daughter is always happy, but if by any chance she is having an off day, be sure there will be a staff member who takes care of her. Her development is exceeded beyond my imagination. The daily activities are targeted at their age, nothing is beyond a limit. The variety of food provided is excellent including snacks, which are more than enough. For sure I do recommend this nursery.

The staff at the nursery are very attentive and caring. My child struggled in the beginning (as most children probably do) but quickly became happy to see the teachers and always comes home bursting with energy and excitement from her day at nursery.
Thank you for your lovely words. This will be passed onto the team at Northolt!
Very well-organised nursery. I am very happy with their service. My daughter has developed her knowledge and understanding very early due to the team at the nursery working hard. I really appreciate them.
Thank you for your lovely words. This will be passed onto the team at Northolt!
The setting is always clean, and loads of activities/areas for the kids to explore.
The nursery provides lots of different foods, and the menu is outstanding. He eats so well and is trying new foods constantly.
The added touch I love about the nursery is the welcome all children and their families receive when they enter. From that moment, it's all about them and them starting the session on a positive.
I would highly recommend this nursery to family and friends.
Thank you for your lovely words. This will be passed on to the team at Northolt!
Staff are very friendly and work wonders on making the kids time at nursery enjoyable and educational. They always go over and beyond. Will definitely be sending our new born here too. I could not recommend this nursery enough to others.
Thank you for your lovely words. This will be passed on to the team at Northolt.
Great staff. Big variety of activities. Healthy meals. Clean environment with many resources. Very accommodating staff and management. They helped my son so much when he started at 10 months old, made coming to the nursery a pleasant experience for him. Every morning he is happy and excited to spend the day at the nursery.
Thank you for your lovely review. We are glad your son is happy and excited to go to nursery!
The staff are very attentive and I feel happy leaving my child with them all - it feels like a second home! I always look forward to picking up my child and hearing all the things she has been doing.
The children spend lots of time in the garden and there are plenty of activities to keep the children occupied.
The meals are healthy, fresh and varied. They serve breakfast, snacks, a hot lunch and a hot tea. My child still has a bottle and it's always rinsed before I take it home to wash.
My child is still in nappies and she is always in a dry nappy when I pick her up.
We love the app! Our child's day is thoroughly documented and we get pictures once or twice a week! I would highly recommend Hungry Caterpillar Northolt to anyone.
Thank you for your lovely review. We are so glad that your child loves nursery!
After having a very difficult time settling my son at a previous nursery, I was recommended Hungry Caterpillar Day Nursery - Northolt by many of my colleagues and it was the best decision I made.
From the initial visit, settling in sessions, to now nearly 2 years on, my son could not be happier.
The nursery provides a warm, caring, nurturing environment which gave me all the confidence and reassurance I needed. The activities, sessions and learning opportunities to develop my child’s skills have been creative and engaging as well as teaching him to be more independent - which has been really great. All staff members are professional, cheerful and truly loved by the children - which speaks volumes!
I will be very sad when my son leaves to start school! An outstanding nursery which I highly recommend
Thank you so much for taking the time to post a review of the nursery. It is so great to hear how well your son has settled and how much he is gaining from nursery, this means so much to the team at Northolt.
My daughter was very happy at the beginning when she was in the baby room. Around the end of 2021, things started to change among teachers. When my daughter moved up to the big children's room, she was very unhappy and her experience pushed me to move her out of nursery. She goes to another nursery now, she's much happier and bubbly.
Thank you for taking time to review the nursery and we are sorry that your experience was not as positive as we aim for. It has been a very challenging time for children and staff and we are really pleased that your daughter has settled into her new nursery. Best wishes to you and your families for the future.
