Background
Hungry Caterpillars Day Nurseries was founded by Olivia Foley in January 1999. The nursery started to meet her childcare needs and to address the lack of high-quality options in the area. Over the years, we have built a strong reputation for exceptional early years education. We have also expanded our services to help more families.
Our nurseries now serve West London, including Ealing and Buckinghamshire. At Hungry Caterpillars, we focus on creating nurturing and enriching environments for children. As a family-run business, we prioritize the individual needs of each family. We continually adapt our services to meet their childcare requirements.
Our Vision
At Hungry Caterpillars, we believe that high-quality preschool education is crucial for enhancing children’s future opportunities. Our commitment to exceptional early years education is backed by research highlighting the value of a positive and engaging nursery experience.
We strive to make every child’s time at Hungry Caterpillars positive, meaningful, and fun. We recognise that each child is unique. That’s why we tailor their care and learning plans to meet their individual needs and interests. This personalised approach ensures that every child feels valued and celebrated as an individual.

Why Choose Us?
Your child is the most important person in the world to you. They deserve to be encouraged, nurtured, supported and loved every step of the way. At Hungry Caterpillars we constantly ask ourselves “would we want this for our own children or family members?” It’s a great question that guides our practitioners, managers and senior team and ensures your child is at the centre of all that we do.
