My son has been going to Hungry Caterpillar Day Nursery - Northolt since June last year and he loves it there. The staff especially two members, are awesome. My son is always smiling when he leaves nursery and the activities they do are amazing and has improved his self confidence a lot.

Love this nursery. They have made my son feel so comfortable after struggling to settle for his first week, due to first time at nursery. He now loves going in with a smile on his face. They care for each individual child and the activities they set out are also amazing, thank you! I would definitely recommend Hungry Caterpillars Day Nursery - Northolt to anyone!

Review from Shabnam M (Mother of Child) published on 8 April 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Staff at this nursery go above and beyond to organise meaningful and enriching learning opportunities for the children. There is always something new, fun and exciting going on! We are always greeted with a smile and staff make a real effort to form positive relationships with children. The nursery app is brilliant, I can see photos of my daughter enjoying her activities immediately which reassures me that she is having a good day. Staff are very quick to upload onto the app on a daily basis! I can also check the app to see exactly what she has eaten and how much which is really helpful. Highly recommend this nursery!

Since the staff changes over Covid-19, my daughter is much happier at nursery and the new teachers are much more attentive and look after them all very well. They are friendly and approachable. When your daughter talks about nursery all the time, that is always a good sign.

Overall Experience
Due to the covid restrictions, my child's induction into nursery has been different. However, the staff have been brilliant and my son has settled well.
I am really pleased with how I'm kept informed of the activities that he does each day.

I am extremely satisfied with the services provided by the nursery and my son appears to have settled very well with the other children and the nursery staff.

Review from Naz H (Mother of Child) published on 4 February 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been going to the nursery from the age of 2.5 and he loves it so much. Staff are lovely, kind, supportive, and very patient! My son has built a very strong relationship with the key workers as well as meeting lovely other children whom he’s built a close friendship with over the last year. He loves engaging in daily activities set up for the kids, as well as the lovely outdoor area they are taken to daily. I have been very happy with my son’s development through Hungry Caterpillar Northolt so a very big thank you.

Review from Bijal K (Mother of Child) published on 13 January 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
After a poor experience at another nursery, I was recommended this nursery.

My child has speech and language delay as well as sensory needs. From the start, this nursery implemented all the resources to help him settle. They recognised my anxiety around his needs and whether they could be met following a previous bad experience. Communication with parents is of the highest standard, and I have seen first-hand how much my child has developed since being there. He has settled in really well and even wants to go on days he is off. The staff go over and above for every child. Every member of the staff is caring and kind. I know what my child has eaten every day, when his nappy was done etc. I get regular pictures and updates on his development, and they have happily worked with other professionals who have been supporting my child. I cannot recommend them enough!

Started in October 2020. So far I found the staff friendly and easy to communicate with. My grandson is 11 months now and he greets the staff taking him in with a smile and he does not cry. Kind Regards.

Review from Kim R (Mother of Child) published on 18 November 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

This nursery has looked after both my children and they do a fantastic job on a day to day basis. Not only does your child have a key worker, but every worker knows who your child is and can give you feedback on what they've been doing throughout the day. The relationships that they build with the children is fantastic and supportive but they also have the same relationship with the parents. I would highly recommend this place and I am thankful that my children have gone to a nursery so caring and developmental.

All my three children have gone to this nursery and it is the best nursery we have found. Staff members are amazing and extremely dedicated in caring for a child. Would recommend it any day. Carers have been there for a while and my elder one who is now 13 and youngest the one in the nursery now is 3 and we still have familiar faces in the nursery.

Review from Siripon H (Mother of Child) published on 18 November 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter started attending Hungry Caterpillar, Northolt branch in September 2020. She has grown into a more confident girl and every time I picked her up, she always says I want to go back to the nursery. Foodwise, my daughter loves eating there. There's an app specifically for parents to see what she's eaten and how much and she always, most of the time, finishes her food. Staff are very friendly and informative and quick to reply with enquiries. I would highly recommend Hungry Caterpillar to any parents.

Review from Mrs A (Mother of Child) published on 9 October 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter started with the nursery in September after a long lockdown. I was nervous about how she would settle, given she had been home with me for six months. The manager and the nursery staff did a fantastic job in settling my daughter, despite the restrictions we face. The settling in period was extensive, and this gave me such peace of mind that the nursery staff would have ample time to get to know my daughter before I would have to leave her for the whole day. I really like the communication from the nursery using the app - I can keep up to date with what my daughter is doing and key information for each of her sessions. My daughter has bonded so well with the staff, and I want to say a massive thank you to the manager and the whole staff at the nursery. This nursery is also such a lovely and inviting setting. I would recommend to any parent.
