Great nursery. Staff really care about your child's wellbeing. They communicate well both verbally and by using the app. App is really easy to use and is regularly updated. You get regular progress checks which is really useful so you know how to further help your child develop at home. Highly
recommend !

I really appreciate that all the staff in the nursery especially my child's keyworker and nursery manager keep us updated with everything my child is doing, her progress and how she is interacting with all her friends. Her keyworker always makes an effort to get to know her and build trust. My child
initially had a difficult time adjusting but thanks to all the staff taking good care of her, she has now adjusted really well and enjoying her time at nursery. Thank you all!!

A warm, nurturing nursery where my child feels safe, happy, and inspired every day. The caring staff support learning and confidence beautifully. We are so grateful for the love and dedication they show.

My experience with this Nursery has been a very good one. My son who is now 10 attended this Nursery and we had a very positive experience. My 2 year old now attends here and he is also having a very positive experience and is very happy here. I feel that all the Nursery staff are polite, friendly
and from my experience so far they take good care of my child. My son really loves it here and being here has contributed to his social skills and his speech is progressing nicely.

We have been extremely pleased with the care and attention provided at Academy Gardens. The staff create a warm and nurturing environment where children feel secure and excited to learn. Our child is always happy to attend, and we've noticed wonderful progress in their confidence and development.

The staff at this nursery are very friendly and welcoming, I can tell they are all individually good at what they do and I fully trust them with looking after my son which is a big thing.
I love how they regularly update the app so I don't really have to ask anything when I pick my son up.
Would
definitely be recommending this nursery to any mum friends I have.

Excellent care and excellent activities everyday. My boys love nursery and have learnt so much already since October 2024. All staff members are lovely and helpful and are all enthusiastic about the kids development and learning.

My Grandson loves his time at nursery, there are a good mix of educational and physical activities, and the staff are warm and friendly.
When my Grandson has had specific needs, such as toilet training or support to make friends, the key worker has had a plan which was shared with me and
successfully implemented.
I feel so lucky to have my Grandson attend Academy Gardens.

Like the place. I like that its open, so if i arrive to get her, I can see what she is doing, before she sees me. And I like what I see, sit with her friends, and they play together. So overall very positive experience.

Wonderful nursery - my son really enjoys himself and has developed into a confident young child with the help of the teachers at this nursery. His eating skills have improved immensely as well. Would highly recommend!

Professional team. We switched to them because with the nursery before, we did not feel our daughter is improving. Now she is. We are happy. We go 2 times a week, 5 hours each. Maybe if we could split it further with more days and less hours, would be even better. But this way, she might get more
comfortable for longer hours, as preparation for the school.
Thank you.

Excellent nursery with caring staff!
I couldn't be happier with our experience at Hungry Caterpillar Day Nursery - Academy Gardens. The staff are incredibly caring, patient, and attentive, making sure every child feels valued. The learning activities are engaging, and I've seen such great progress
in my child's social and developmental skills. The environment is warm, clean, and well-organized, with plenty of creative play opportunities. Communication with parents is fantastic, and I always feel informed about my child's day. I highly recommend Academy Gardens to any parent looking for a nurturing and supportive early learning environment.

My child has just started going, but they seem to be a really nice supportive nursery. Their staff are really friendly and take the time to play with my baby at her own pace while trying to engage her in age appropriate activities as she was premature.

Hungry Caterpillar, Academy Gardens is an exceptional nursery.
My daughter has been attending since she was 1 year old and could barely walk, now she is all set for school due to the wonderful staff at Academy Gardens.
Whilst working full time and being a first time mum I felt at ease knowing my
daughter was in safe hands, from comforting her during the late stages of teething, being a fussy eater (she now eats a variety of food thanks to the fantastic chef)to the dreaded potty training. The staff have helped throughout every step of the way.
I cannot recommend them enough!

The staff are so lovely and friendly. Will always give a daily update on how my daughter is doing. Always greeting you with a smile. Very approachable if you ever need help or need to ask a question. Extremely clean. I love the app! It’s great to see what my daughter eats and how much of it she
eats.

I have had a very good experience with Academy Garden with my two boys for 3 years. They have now a lot of nice and fun memories, experiences, adventures and learning. The teacher's team is very kind and friendly, they know exactly how to deal with the kids. Definitely, I'll recommend Academy Garden
to all my friends.

My daughter who has speech delay started nursery in September and since then till now I have seen a big improvement in my daughter's speech. The nursery is absolutely amazing. The staff is amazing, very understanding, very caring. I would not go anywhere else. If I had 10 stars, I would’ve given
that. Very pleased.
