It is wonderful to see how our grandson enjoys his nursery. The Nest Nursery Copper Beech is such a lovely environment for children, with great staff who are there to offer gentle encouragement and activities, and he is developing so well. I love being able to see photos, videos and read observations
on the Tapestry app, giving me a special insight into his time there. By all accounts, he loves the food too! Thanks to you all for looking after our grandson so well.

Our daughter has been going to The Nest Nursery Copper Beech for nearly two and half years, and now our son has started. The staff and the nursery are home from home for our children. There is a genuine interest for their well-being and development and we are always updated on what great activities
they have been up to. The staff are very friendly and make us feel comfortable knowing they are both thoroughly looked after throughout the day.
I would highly recommend this nursery.

Our daughter has been attending The Nest Nursery Copper Beech since October and we genuinely could not be happier with her care. She is absolutely thriving, she's so happy and loves all of the team. It's so lovely to see her so happy to go to any of the team in the morning. Thank you to all of the team
for creating a safe, happy environment for our daughter to be curious, explore, be bold, be confident and to thrive in.

The Nest Nursery Copper Beech is a fantastic nursery, staff are wonderful and it's a place I'm happy to involve in my child's early years. I think the environment and activities available are appropriate - and there are no TVs etc, with the staff engaging in learning activities with the children. Really
pleased we found The Nest.

Started in September and my little one is happy to leave my side when we arrive here. Love this nursery and its curiosity approach to learning. British sign language is also taught to the little ones and this makes me very happy and impressed.

The Nest Nursery Copper Beech truly is a home-from-home. My little girl has blossomed so much since May 2022. I cannot thank all the staff enough and we are so excited for what the next year will bring. From the moment I viewed the nursery and met the manager, I knew it was perfect for my daughter.
She is an outdoor lover, very curious and an independent little explorer. Everything the Copper Beech promotes in children. I drop my daughter off with a smile on her face and pick her up so excited because she's had the best day at nursery. The staff are so kind, caring and considerate, access to the parents' app is an amazing touch. Being able to physically see what activities my daughter's been up to and having frequent child focus weeks is a good way to keep on track of individual child development. There are only pros to the Copper Beech, I am so proud of your outstanding Ofsted report, as a parent, because it's a true reflection of everything you have to offer. Thank you all at Copper Beech.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our daughter started at Copper Beech in June when she had just turned six months old. We visited a few nurseries but as soon as we walked through the doors here, we knew this was the one! The bright, airy rooms, natural resources and homely feel absolutely blew us away. I’m breastfeeding but was prepared
to make the switch to formula for ease. However, Becky kindly informed me that there was no need and that they were happy to continue to give breast milk if I wanted to express. I could have cried! I’ve felt fully supported and now that we’re beginning to wean, the staff have been amazing with following our lead with food as well. Knowing everything is included (nappies etc) is also a huge bonus! Our daughter is a bit of a velcro baby so it’s a relief to know that the cuddles and carrying continue at nursery as well, though we are starting to see her become more independent. We have no doubt that she is well cared for and can’t wait to watch her progress here.

The nursery is exactly what me and my wife were looking for for our child. They are that good we are sending our second child here too! Staff are amazing and very informative when I pick up my daughter. They have an excellent app that shows what the children are doing during the day. They also have
an outdoor forest school which my daughter really enjoys. This nursery is highly recommended!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The Nest Nursery Copper Beech is a truly fabulous nursery and a home from home for our whole family. We have watched our daughter flourish and grow there over the past few years and it has been an absolute pleasure to do so. She is cared for and supported there by knowledgable, nurturing and attentive
teachers who encourage her to be herself and no one else. She recently had an injury which limited her mobility for a few weeks. Most nurseries may have struggled to cope with this but at The Nest Copper Beech they thrived when presented with this challenge. They found inventive and creative ways to allow her to still be the curious and independent child that she is. They understood how important nursery is to her and that it was important for her to be there. We could not be more grateful to them for this especially. Our second daughter will be joining The Nest Nursery Copper Beech next year too and we know that she will be in the very best nursery possible.

My daughter has been at this nursery since 2019 and leaves very soon. Our experience with The Nest Nursery Copper Beech has been nothing but brilliant, the communication, the activities and the interaction with the children is exactly what a parent would want for their child/children. The staff are

My daughter has been attending The Nest Nursery Copper Beech since just before Christmas and I could not be happier with this Nursery. She was very shy and cautious around other people before she joined and since attending nursery she has grown so much more confident. The environment is beautiful, we
fell in love with it straight away and love how natural all the resources are that they use. My daughter adores the outdoor space and it has helped her grow her curiosity of the outdoors. The staff are all wonderful and super supportive. They use tapestry to keep parents up to date with what is happening in nursery and also to offer extra support and information. We love seeing photos on tapestry of what she has been up to each week. We are so happy that we found The Nest, it really is a home from home for our daughter.

My son has attended the Nest Nursery since he was one year of age and has absolutely loved his time there. It’s clear that he has felt so comfortable and at home and it’s lovely to see how at ease he has been. The staff are so kind and caring and work really hard to create a welcoming ‘home from home’.
They are brilliant at creating engaging environments and have always followed my son’s interests. When they found out he loves the Superworm and Stickman stories, staff helped him to look for worms in the garden and supported him to make his very own Stickman with sticks and leaves which he loved! We have recently moved to a new area so have sadly had to transfer my son to a new nursery but if we could have taken the Nest Nursery with us we would have done! It really is a brilliant place and I can’t speak more highly of it!

I cannot recommend The Nest at Copper Beech enough. My daughter loves her key worker and the team, who encourage her interests and have helped her to thrive over the last 9 months. The staff are welcoming, sensible and calm, and I love that they spend so much time playing outside.

My son has been attending the Nest nursery for 3.5 years and I’m sure he will be sad to leave when he goes to school this year. He settled in really well when he initially started in the babies room, the staff were always very attentive and reassuring. The play set-ups were brilliant and really helped
him develop his speech and imagination. He was always happy to go into nursery which was a relief too. When he moved to the older room upstairs, he settled in quickly and adapted to the change really well, the staff were very attentive at giving us feedback on how he was getting on. We feel the nursery offers a really welcoming environment and we love the variety of play equipment that is offered and the fact it really develops the children's imaginations. The food is always varied and our son eats really well whilst he is there. The garden space is a lovely and lots of time is spent out there. We also love that our son can attend Forest school on a rota system, he loves it!

My son has only been attending the nursery for a few months but we all love it! It’s lovely to know he’s experiencing so much and given the opportunity to explore! He’s always so smiley and the carers are great. We get frequent updates on his progress and little stories about what he’s been up to each
day! Couldn’t ask for more.

The Nest Nursery gave us the peace of mind every parent wants when sending their child to childcare. Our little girl loves it there and we know that we have chosen the best environment away from home for her. The setting is lovely. We love the curiosity approach and we have implemented many ideas from
it at home! The teachers are fabulous! I love the support The Nest Nursery offers with sleep for example (and many other subjects). The Forest School is a total highlight- and it is absolutely wonderful that even kids who do not attend nursery on Thursdays can still come to Forest School. The manager is wonderful and goes above and beyond! Our little girl made loads of friends there and she will be sad to leave for school when the time comes! We now have another child and when she is ready she also will be attending the Nest.

Our daughter has attended this nursery for over two years now and we all love it! She loves it so much she asks me to come late to pick her up. She has learnt so much from her time at The Nest and we're so impressed with the activities the staff do with the children - our second daughter will be attending
from the end of the year and we look forward to many more years with The Nest.

My daughter has been attending the Nest nursery for 8 months now and I could not be more pleased. It’s so worrying choosing a nursery, but she runs in every morning and says bye mommy, she loves it! The staff are so lovely, they have gone above and beyond making sure my daughter settled in quickly and
is comfortable being there. She has made great relationships with staff and her key worker, often asking for them at home to come and read stories. The environment is homely and the resources are changed regularly to suit each child’s interests. What a great choice we made choosing this nursery!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.942)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.942) out of 10 for The Nest Nursery Copper Beech is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.942 for The Nest Nursery Copper Beech is calculated as follows: ( (113 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 120 Ratings = 4.942
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Nest Nursery Copper Beech is based on 10 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 35 number of registered child places is 7, which has been reached with 10 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
