The best decision we have made is to send our Daughter here. The staff are amazing and so friendly. Lots of activities and we have seen our Daughter develop so much since starting here! The food options are amazing and the nursery definitely has a family feel.

I absolutely love the Hungry Caterpillar Nursery in High Wycombe. The staff are lovely, and I'm always confident leaving my child in their care. My child's key worker is very involved in their progress and keeps us well-informed about their daily activities. The food at the nursery is exceptional, with no fast food or unhealthy snacks. They provide creative and well-thought-out meals with a variety of flavors.

Staff are friendly and approachable and always smiling, my son has really come into his own since attending, I love all of the updates and pictures I receive whilst I'm at work really puts my mind at ease.

What a lovely nursery. Clean and organised. The staff are all friendly and welcoming. You can tell each member of staff isn't just doing a job, but takes pride in their job. The nursery is equipped to an excellent standard and my daughter has settled in so incredibly well. I would recommend this nursery to anyone that will listen! So glad to have found you and I am very happy with my decision to move my 10 month old baby to your nursery.

We honestly can't recommend this nursery enough! Our 1st child started during COVID, + even though we couldn't go inside, the staff made it such a positive experience. Now, our 2nd is still there + our 3rd will be joining soon! The staff are so warm, caring + supportive-our children absolutely love them + are always happy to go. The nursery has helped them grow into confident, independent little ones, + our eldest started school ahead in phonics + numbers thanks to what he learned here. Communication is great, with app updates, daily handovers + termly parent meetings. Transitions between rooms are smooth, + settling sessions are helpful. Mealtimes do amaze us-how they get so many kids sitting/eating nicely is beyond us! Management is epic! They go above + beyond to support not just the children but us as parents too. With music + sports classes, fun events + lovely leaving celebrations, plus great food + amazing care, this nursery is something special!

I couldn't be happier that my daughter chose this nursery for my 1yr old grandson. As a young single mum living at home, the support she has had from the High Wycombe team has been immense. From helping her untangle the funding forms, to tips on sleep, weaning and eating, plus the daily detailed updates on his activities, learning and enjoyment, all of it has helped her grow in confidence as a young mum, boosting her self esteem as a complete equal alongside all the other parents. My grandson is becoming a happy, confident and popular little boy who adores his key worker and he is clearly thriving in such a warm and stimulating setting. Thank you all of you x

We have been so happy with the care provided by the team at Hungry Caterpillars. They are so engaged - every day there are new and creative learning experiences. They are so thoughtful, supporting the children to make little gifts for holidays and events, that also allows their creativity to flourish. Our little boy happily goes off to nursery to play with his friends, he loves spending time outside and with all of the toys inside. He knows he can always go to one of the team if he needs a cuddle, too! We miss him when he is at nursery but it is reassuring to know he is still well cared for, by a team who know him, care about his interests and teach him new things every day.

The staff are so wonderful at the nursery. My 18 month old is very shy, they are amazingly patient and caring with her and her key carer is now firmly one of her favourite people, she even features in 3 am night time talks. They have taught my little one to fall asleep independently and to eat, and so many other skills and songs and confidence along the way. They are really lovely and I have full confidence in the team.

I haven't seen any improvement in my child since joining nursery. The issue is that my child is more advanced and has already learned many things ahead of time. Instead of challenging and encouraging further progress, the nursery strictly follows the curriculum, which has led to boredom. As a result, my child has lost interest and now just plays with toys, before he was interested in learning, reading and exploring. I believe this nursery might be suitable for an average child. I've noticed that children who attend this nursery tend to lose confidence. Instead of gaining new skills, my child has picked up phrases like "What the hell!", "What's your problem!", and even swear words. This is extremely disappointing. While I can't place all the blame on the nursery, I believe that some of the responsibility lies with other parents who are not correcting their children properly and nursery should address it with their parents when they hear it/see it.

Hungry Caterpillars has been an amazing experience for both our daughter and ourselves as parents. They've helped us navigate our daughter's development (and parenthood) as she's grown - she started attending at 10 months and now at nearly 20 months she's just so confident! As first time parents, the team and key workers there have been so supportive and we're so grateful to have such an amazing nursery close by. Her meals always sound amazing and the management team are so welcoming in the mornings at drop-off. The outside area is full of learning activities and games, I just wish there were more green spaces.

We have had our daughter at Hungry Caterpillars for almost a year. She absolutely loves going, and we enjoy seeing her run in and greet the staff and her friends every day, as well as the massive smile on her face when we pick her up. The staff are amazing, providing great feedback every day. They have all built great relationships with our daughter. She has learnt so much since she started, and is really excited to go back every day. Management are very engaged, and friendly, again knowing who we are and what has been happening with our child. The food smells amazing, with a great menu. I have been really impressed with every part of the nursery, and look forward to having our daughter grow up here.

Brilliant childcare settling. The space is open, bright and clean. The staff are lovely and the location is convenient- lots of car parking spaces too. My son is always happy going into nursery and comes out with a big smile.

Both my children are happy and learning so much at Hungry Caterpillar High Wycombe. The staff are caring and attentive and have supported our family brilliantly. They do go the extra mile. I was impressed with the nursery when we looked round 2 years ago and I still am now and I have recommended it to friends. When my children have needed some extra support it's been provided and there are many team members who have been there since we joined so I feel there is continuity. I like that the team know my children well and have been with them for a good chunk of time. It seems like a home from home for them. The food menus are interesting and balanced, there is a brilliant range of activities and learning opportunities happening and there are events throughout the year where parents and grandparents can get involved too.

Amazing nursery! My daughter attends it and really loves it here. Lots of activities for the children, painting colouring, messy play, the staff are very caring and accommodating to her needs. Highly recommended.

I would like to nominate a member of staff, in particular, she has consistently supported us with our granddaughter who hasn’t had an easy time and finds social and emotional situations quite scary at times. She has always made sure my granddaughter is as comfortable as possible. There have been many obstacles we have had to overcome with our granddaughter and this member of staff has been there every step of the way. Nothing is ever too much trouble and we know we can contact her about anything. Our granddaughter has a close bond with her and this has helped her grow in confidence, has helped with her speech and language and with her food issues. She has remained a constant in our granddaughter’s nursery journey and is now assisting us with transitioning to school. She deserves to be mentioned for all the help she has given us over the two-plus years that our granddaughter has attended the nursery. She is an asset to the nursery and she makes sure all staff are on board with our granddaughter and they understand her issues and difficulties. Thank you.

Truly outstanding care. My daughter has been at this nursery for three years, and we've had no regrets. The staff are lovely - they go above and beyond to keep the kids entertained and keep families involved too. Really pleased!

Very professional, hygienically clean with very good staff all around. The administrative staff is very helpful and responds quickly, teaching and caring staff are responsible and caring towards children.

My son started in October and his progression has been amazing. It was a long journey finding the right nursery for him and where I had peace of mind. On my first visit, I knew this would be my choice. The staff are lovely, I have no problem raising any issues if any, very happy with my choice and would recommend to anyone.

I moved my child from another nursery, this in itself made me very anxious. But the team at Hungry Caterpillar Day Nursery could not have made my journey any better. They offered me flexible settles and really took the time to get to know my child and his needs. The communication we get is brilliant, we get regular updates on an app about their day and development and I receive regular observations that clearly show how well they know my child. The team are all so passionate and friendly, they clearly love working there. The environments are clean, beautifully designed and well-resourced. My child’s key person is fabulous! She has made my child’s transition so easy and I can go off to work knowing he is in the best hands! The management team are always so helpful and accommodating and are always available to talk to.
