My daughter started at Hungry Caterpillars when she was 11 months old and will stay there until she starts school in September. The staff at the nursery provide a home from home environment. I can drop my daughter and go to work with no worries. I highly recommend this nursery. My daughter can write her name, is articulate and confident. The nursery staff have worked well with me to support my daughter and I am so happy we found this nursery.

We are so happy with Hungry Caterpillars Hanwell! We moved to the area and had to find a new nursery which was daunting as he was so settled at his previous setting, but the team really made an effort to get to know him, settle him in, and now I am so reassured when I see him excited to go in the morning, and happily playing on pick up. The team seem to genuinely care about the children, they do lots of fun activities, leaning in to what the children enjoy and take interest in.

I had one child and I still have another. They are all happy and we are also happy to have our children in a place that has all the possibilities, all the services and all the respect. Thanks our nursery. All the best wishes and bright future.

We had to move our daughter to a new nursery at very short notice and we are so pleased we chose Hungry Caterpillar Hanwell. The team could not have been more kind and supportive through what was a very stressful time and did so much to help our daughter settle in. She absolutely loves it there and has formed such a good bond with the lovely staff in a really short time. We have been really impressed with the dedication of everyone there, the setting itself and how far our daughter has come in just a couple of months.

Couldn't love the staff more! They are all professional and most importantly they genuinely care about the happiness and safety of the children. Through the activities they plan, the food they serve and the cuddles they give. My daughter loves to now walk through the door every morning met with a smile and cuddles.

I can't recommend Hungry Caterpillar Nursery in Hanwell highly enough! From the moment my daughter started, she has absolutely loved it. The staff are incredible-so warm, caring, and genuinely passionate about what they do. They create such a nurturing and engaging environment, and it's clear how much effort they put into making each child feel happy, safe, and encouraged to learn. My daughter has grown in confidence since joining, and it's been great to see her develop new skills and make friends. The activities are thought out, and I love how they encourage creativity, independence, and a love for learning. The communication from the team is excellent-I always feel well-informed and reassured that she's in the best hands. Thank you to the wonderful staff for everything they do. It's such a joy to see my daughter so happy every day-she genuinely looks forward to going in! If you're looking for a nursery where your child will be cared for, supported, and inspired, this is the place

My son has been happier here than he has ever been at previous nurseries. Staff communication has been fantastic. Parental engagement is also strong. The app makes keeping in touch with his day much easier.

Our daughter is very happy at Hungry Caterpillar Hanwell. She has been there for about a year now in the preschool room. Lots of lovely staff who seem to really care. Soon after we joined there was some staff turnover which unsettled things, but they dealt with it well and it now seems to be going really well. They are flexible with extra sessions and supportive of parents. Vegetarian food not as good as previous nursery but not terrible.

I just want to tell you all what an amazing job you have all done with my little monster. Since day 1, she has been cared for in the best possible way and you have helped make her the caring and loving girl you see today. Will be sad in September when she goes to school but she will go off knowing the love and support you all have given her. Thank you all.

I feel like, the teachers could do a lot better in greeting the mothers when they come to collect their children. I feel like it’s just not there, like today I walked in and just felt really awkward. I also want to mention that I never see my son in the pictures uploaded. It’s like it’s been a whole month. I am sure every parent would love to see their kid's pictures and what they are doing in nursery. Obviously not meaning every second but the weekly pictures, if they could cover all the children I think I would appreciate that. Sometimes when I am asking a query I also feel rushed, I understand they have their hands full. I get told to check the app all the time. I am aware but to a certain extent, just say they had this but I don’t know how much intake he’s had please do check. I don't normally want to know if he ate the full. I just want to know what he had. I hope these things can be worked on. Surely not too much of an ask.

They look after my young son and he loves going! The staff all adore him, which is lovely to see. I trust the staff will do right by him, and from the photos I get on the app, it is clear to see he's being entertained well throughout the day. 100% would recommend it, in fact,... I already did!

My daughter has attended the Hanwell Nursery for approx 18 months, and I couldn’t be happier with my choice. The staff are all friendly and amazing, both of her key persons have been/are fantastic, and all the staff in the baby toddler room are too. They are always happy to discuss her progress and her day and have provided great support and feedback during her time there; they were particularly great with her toilet training, always encouraging and giving me updates. My daughter is always happy when I collect her, the children are always participating in stimulating activities, and my daughter loves telling me about her day. The nursery has encouraged my daughter to be independent and confident, teaching her day-to-day tasks and has helped improve her social skills. She is currently transitioning to the preschool class, and again, the staff have been great, keeping me informed on her progress and ensuring she feels encouraged and safe going into a new class.

Amazing staff and environment, my son has loved starting at Hanwell Nursery and I can see a huge progress in all aspects from him being there, we are very grateful for all the work they are doing for his education, encouragement and enjoyment, and he’s talking so much more since started there, they are great with giving updates how he done each day and online, he loves to play outside in the fun outdoor areas and activities inside, lots of learning and supplied snacks, the staff are so professional and friendly, every member of staff knows him by name and personally, he is so happy when I drop him off and pick him up, it’s much appreciated.

My daughter took a while to settle but the team really went above and beyond to settle her in and make her feel comfortable. Even now, they greet her with a warm and enthusiastic welcome every time she arrives. Since starting at the nursery my daughter has come on leaps and bounds - she is standing, babbling away and much more confident around adults and other babies. I also love the little updates you get throughout the day - I really look forward to these. I’m so grateful for the team’s efforts - you are all angels as far as I’m concerned - in the way you take care of our precious babies! But especially her key person, who has more energy than anyone I’ve ever met. I’m so happy my daughter has bonded with her so well, I feel totally reassured about her happiness and safety. Thank you so much.
