My daughter feels safe with the staff. She doesn't go to new people that easily but has really come out of her shell being here.

Overall Experience

My son has attended Treetops Caterpillar Nursery for the past 19months, as a family we love the place. My son doesn't want to come home most days especially if I pick him up whilst playing in the garden. The staff are extremely friendly and do an amazing job in looking after my son and educating him whilst myself and my husband work.

Overall Experience
I love the staff at Caterpillars, they have always been so warm and welcoming. Supported my baby start in Bear Cubs, she is now in Hippos.

Never had a problem, they even took on the challenge of re-usable nappies. Love the little extras they do eg. birthday cards for family members. Always listen and give support on thing I ask abut.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been at Treetops Caterpillar Nursery for nearly two years. The staff are always welcoming and friendly. I feel well informed when she is ill or when an accident has happened. I would welcome more vegetable based meals. In the main, I am happy with the care my daughter receives.

Review from Caterpillar (Mother of Child) published on 5 October 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My son has been with Treetops Caterpillar Nursery now for over a year and he is becoming a very confident, social little boy. The activities the carers offer the children are varied and fun and I can see my son enjoys being here and taking part. My only negative would be to highlight the sudden turnover in staff which I feel detracts from the positive aspects of the nursery as children don't get to form a bond with their carer.

Overall Experience

Very friendly like dropping my boys off with my friends/family. Staff got to know me really quickly and are so helpful, chatty, friendly and are more than willing to talk to you about your little one. Staff always seem to be happy and enjoying themselves so the little ones do too. Outside space could do with a bit of a refresh.

Review from Jess L (Mother of Child) published on 3 October 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My daughter has been at Treetops Caterpillar Nursery (Deeping St James) since she was 10 months old and has thrived under their care. She recently turned two and has moved to the "Hippo" room where she is really enjoying the freedom to choose her activities - indoor/outdoor and she is growing more confident every day. I have always found the staff to be very approachable, friendly and genuinely interested in each of their little changes. A wonderful nursery which I would highly recommend to friends and family.

Review from Susan C (Mother of Child) published on 3 October 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Other than my close family, Treetops Caterpillar Nursery (Deeping St James) is the only place and people I trust to give my son the best care available. When I collect my son each day, I look forward to reading the full detailed review of his day. Even though he has only been attending for one month so far, I have seen a huge development in his social skills which is purely down to his care workers at Treetops Caterpillar Nursery (Deeping St James). Every day he comes home with a huge smile and I can't wait for the time when he starts talking to tell me about his exciting day.

Overall Experience

We find the staff at the nursery are amazing always happy and full of energy. They are always happy to discuss any concerns you may have regarding your child's behaviour learning etc. They also help with advice and suggestions on any issues. We feel relaxed leaving our children in their care and feel it is the best choice we have made for them and their development has shown this.

Review from Sandie H (Mother of Child) published on 3 October 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My son has been attending this nursery for 6 months now and has never shed a tear about going or being left there. He loves it and although he only attends 2 mornings each week at the moment it still leaves a big impression on him as he often talks about the staff to other children during the week, we are extremely happy with the care he receives and having changed nurseries previously we are so pleased we made the move to Treetops Caterpillar Nursery.
