The setting of the nursery is great, the staff are all so friendly, there great at understanding . I cant recommend this nursery anymore then i do. My child comes out bursting with smiles and new things to tell every time. They always change up play/learning which is amazing!
We moved our daughter to Beenham Caterpillars Day nursery in December 2025 following a house move. We were nervous to see how she'd get on and we are beyond delighted with how she has settled in. The staff are amazing, consistent, caring and take the time at pick up to talk about the day and happy to discuss any changes in routines we've had. Our daughter is excited to go on every day and even took her nursery bag to the door over the Christmas break as she was missing being there. I feel so lucky to have such a stable, caring and happy nursery so local and I can't thank the staff enough!
Beenham caterpillars have been so supportive and caring to my son who has ASD. His nursery closed unexpectedly and they took him on asap as he attended previously before i changed jobs. They have have prompted and quick to get his ehcp support and have been amazing keeping me updated. I highly recommend them to anyone
The staff are kind, caring, and incredibly supportive, which instantly put my mind at ease. My daughter is always happy, settled, and excited to attend nursery. The activities and weekly themes are well planned and engaging, and it's clear how much effort goes into every day. I am so proud that my daughter attends such a wonderful nursery and would highly recommend it to any parent.
My daughter has been going to Beenham caterpillars for just over a year now. She absolutely loves it, the staff are all amazing at what they do and without them I don't think my daughter would be the person she is growing into.
The team are incredibly friendly and hold many different activities for all ages that the children are learning so many key skills for their futures.
I am incredibly proud of how far my daughter has come since starting beenham and this is purely down to the care and attention they provide to each child and always encouraging them to take part and explore.
Thank you so much Leah for your lovely words, honestly we really appreciate it! Your daughter is a delight to care for and we love watching her develop new skills every time she is in!
