The day was absolutely amazing. I feel part of a very big family. Not many companies would celebrate and reward their staff. A big thank to Olivia & Tim and all of the head office staff for organising the event.

Why work for us?

I enjoy working for Hungry Caterpillars because they have helped me to find my passion for childcare again. In the short period of time that I have been working with the company, I have been given fantastic opportunities to grow and progress in my career.

My highlight whilst working with Hungry Caterpillars has to be the fantastic support given by the managers, it’s amazing to work somewhere where you always feel part of the team and supported.

Georgia KerrDeputy Manager – West Twyford

I enjoy working for Hungry Caterpillars as there is a great support network. There is always someone to speak to when you need advice or even just to have a chat. The company strives to provide the best care for the children and they really care for their staff.

My highlight of working for Hungry Caterpillars would have to be the great support during lock down. Even through this uncertain time the company still worked their hardest to provide the best care. I have made great memories through the lock down that I will remember forever.
