Why is Chalfont St Peter special?

At Hungry Caterpillars Chalfont St Peter, your child will have access to a high variety of stimulating activities. This includes a wonderful garden environment, which your child will enjoy daily in all weathers – due to our sheltered area. As well as the opportunity to plant and grow vegetables, play in our sand beach area and join in with our forest school activities on site.

Our nursery has three rooms, which your child will travel through on their nursery journey. Starting in our cosy baby room all the way up to our vibrant pre-school area, before heading off to school.

Every day will be filled with exciting and stimulating activities, designed to inspire your child’s natural curiosity to create an awe and wonder environment, which they can thrive in. Allowing your child to develop at their own pace, to reach their full potential. Our dedicated and passionate team will be there to guide your child and support you as parents, every step of the way, with your child’s own key person.

Your child will also have access to fresh, nutritious meals cooked on site each day – by our award-winning chef, Kate!

Thank you for being amazing. Our daughter loves the nursery and we love her being so happy in there. All staff are incredibly friendly and are looking after the children with lots of care and love. My daughter has many friends and is full of stories when coming home from the nursery. She loves all the games they play, the reading and singing. She enjoys the food as well.
We were extremely lucky to find this nursery as they are connected with us every day through the Famly app. We can see our daughter playing and creating crafts every day. We love that we are kept updated about what is going on in her day. The manager is incredible and has always everything under control. Thank you, thank you and thank you.

Staff at this nursery go above and beyond to organise meaningful and enriching learning opportunities for the children. There is always something new, fun and exciting going on! We are always greeted with a smile and staff make a real effort to form positive relationships with children.
The nursery app is brilliant, I can see photos of my daughter enjoying her activities immediately which reassures me that she is having a good day. Staff are very quick to upload onto the app on a daily basis! I can also check the app to see exactly what she has eaten and how much which is really helpful. Highly recommend this nursery!

Really can’t recommend Hungry Caterpillar Day Nursery enough. Our son has been with them from the babies room through to preschool and absolutely loves it. He’s built great relationships with many of the teachers and has made lots of friends. Very safe, lots of fun activities and amazing food. We have our second registered and have recommended to a number of friends.
