This nursery holds a special place in our hearts, they've looked after both my children who started after their first birthday and left just before starting school. My kids have made some fantastic memories from their time there. The staff are caring, the food is made fresh (which they always ate!),
and they took part in many engaging activities over the years. They always rang to flag any issues so I was always kept up to date. Thank you for looking after both of my children and being their safe space for many years, we will miss the nursery dearly.

Couldn't be happier sending my son to Hungry Caterpillar Day Nursery - Chalfont St Peter. The support from the practitioners is amazing and he has such a lovely time there, already learning new skills which is so nice to see.

Both of our children started here in September and they have had a very loving and attentive transition. Our son in particular has received a lot of rewarding focus on the areas of development where he was lagging and we have seen vast improvements here and elsewhere. The staff are always receptive
to queries and the updates on the children's progress is regular and well documented. We are very happy with the setting and hope that both kids remain in their care for the entirety for their nursery journey.

Amazing nursery. My son loves going to nursery and thanks to the amazing team at Chalfont St Peter. He has developed tremendously and I'm so excited to see his growth! The staff are so caring and loving and it feels like a home away from home when my son goes to nursery. Can't recommend them enough.

All staff at the Hungry Caterpillar Day Nursery - Chalfont St Peter are extremely helpful, caring and supportive. My son absolutely loves going to nursery and regularly talks about all the lovely staff that look after him.
Everyone from the management, teachers and kitchen staff are all so
friendly and welcoming.
I feel very grateful that my son is growing up in such a wonderful place. The nursery is always clean and tidy with lots of fun, educational and varied things going on.
Both my husband and I have been very happy with the service from the start (August 2024).

The staff are all very friendly and professional. The team looking after my son are all very warm and make sure he's learning and looked after properly. His key worker is very invested in his development, happiness and welfare.

This is a great nursery. The staff are very friendly and genuinely care about the children. The staff really helped to settle our son into the nursery and continues to ensure he was happy. The management of the nursery is brilliant, which means the staff in each room can concentrate fully on the
children. The weekly topics are engaging, and the staff try to ensure the topics spark the children’s interest in new ways.

We have had a positive experience with this nursery. All staff members are approachable and caring and have made our child feel at home there. He settled in quickly, and daily communication and updates from the nursery are great. Would recommend.
12 March 2024
The nursery is really clean. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Personally, I like the place. Because of big and clean outside play area. Lots of learning toys. Kids become very independent.
The only issue is the car park. Nothings else. I highly recommend it.

My daughter recently started at Hungry Caterpillars and has become really settled there thanks to the care from the staff. They offer a variety of lovely activities, provide delicious lunches, keep you updated with everything you need to know through the app and have been a great support throughout
the transition.
26 February 2024
Friendly members of staff who are always keen to accommodate for your child/children. My twins started at 9 months and only took 3 weeks to fully settle in with the help of the lovely staff. We get updates on their daily routine whilst in the nursery as well as weekly updates with photos of what the
children have been up to. Activities seem really fun and interest them. They always seem to be so excited when going to nursery and we can see how happy they are when we collect them at the end of the day. They have learnt a lot by attending Hungry Caterpillars Chalfont St Peter. Three members of staff in particular have been great, they have definitely exceeded our expectations.

I have nothing but praise for this outstanding nursery. The manager is a very kind and accommodating manager and the environment is homely, stimulating and inspiring for the children. The best thing however is the dedicated, hard-working and incredibly nurturing staff. My daughter has been there for
the last three years and has bonded so well with all her key workers through the different rooms. I wish I had another child just to stay in touch with them all.
15 February 2024
The love for our children is so fierce and so strong that leaving them with other people can be hard. Our son has been at Hungry Caterpillar, Chalfont St Peter, for almost 6 months now. We feel so truly blessed to have such a contented comfort knowing he is there in their wonderful hands. We moved
house and area, so lots of change for our family. We worried we’d never find a nursery as brilliant as our last one - but now feel so happy that Hungry Caterpillar feels totally the right fit. His key workers are exceptional. The most wonderful people. We feel so grateful and so happy with where he is. The communication is fantastic, the app is constantly updated so we feel in the loop and included in what he gets up to. The kindness and professionalism of all the staff there (across all rooms, not just our experience of the baby room) are outstanding. The nurturing care, the exciting activities and all the opportunities to learn and develop are endless. It’s one in a million!

My daughter has had a fantastic experience at the Hungry Caterpillar Nursery in Chalfont St Peter, significantly enhanced by the nurturing staff. One staff member in particular's warmth and kindness have made a notable difference, helping my daughter feel secure and excited about her nursery days.
The engaging learning activities have sparked her curiosity, which provides a stimulating environment, making her nursery experience exceptionally positive.
26 April 2023
Our children are very happy at the nursery. They bounce in in the morning and one is often disappointed not to be picked up later than he is!
We are confident that they are well cared for and that the staff genuinely care about the development and well-being of the children.

I have been so happy having my daughter at Hungry Caterpillar Day Nursery. My daughter has come on such a lot and she thoroughly enjoys it. I have found that the staff (especially the manager) have been hugely supportive and sensitive to making sure my daughter has been supported after bereavement.
They have put in place several measures to make things comfortable for us both, for which I am hugely grateful. I will be sad to see her leave when she starts school in September.

What a wonderful nursery! Our daughter loves attending and is so happy there. She often sprints up to her favourite practitioners at drop off, which is always a joy to see. The facilities are modern, clean and bright and the staff (management and nursery team) are always welcoming. The nursery is
very secure, which was at the top of our priorities when choosing a setting. One of the best things about the nursery is the updates we receive via the app about our daughter’s day (food, naps and etc.), as well as the in-depth progression reports. You can tell the staff are really invested in the children’s development. They offer a lovely selection of activities for the children to do, including sessions run by external companies, and always make an effort to invite parents in on special occasions. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the nursery.

My Granddaughter loves going to nursery. Smiles at the staff that opens the door to her. Heads straight into breakfast, which is a great incentive to leave me. I love the App updates. I am full of admiration for the fun educational group activities that staff lead each session.
