The Nest Nursery Copper Beech

I couldn’t recommend this nursery more. My son has been going for a year and a half. He is so well looked after. The staff are lovely and form really strong bonds with the children and there seems to be a very low turnover of staff too. The curiosity approach is great and creates a calm and stimulating environment for the children, so they learn to play and use their imagination rather than just be ‘entertained’. My son has additional needs and the nursery SENCO as well as his key workers have been outstanding and making sure his needs are cared for. It’s so difficult for any parent leaving their child for the first time but they made it so easy from day one. My son has developed so much since restarting nursery after lockdown, and he missed it so much when we couldn’t go. The food is incredible - it is all freshly prepared and my son eats foods he turns his nose up to at home! To sum up; it is a happy, caring and loving environment with outstanding staff. Definitely recommend!

We also love that the nursery follows the curiosity approach, our daughter isn't bombarded with plastic toys and is encouraged to play outdoors with natural resources.

The garden is a huge hit with both boys and they love all the time they spend outside.

We recently started with The Nest and have been very impressed with the nursery. Our son has settled very quickly and we have noticed a real positive change. He is more independent and loves to be outside exploring. The Nest's curiosity philosophy is great and the information we receive on tapestry has given us some really helpful parenting tips. Overall, we would highly recommend The Nest and the lovely nurturing care the staff provide.

A fantastic setting that is really tuned into child development and a child-centred approach. It is always fantastically resourced with natural resources and real objects. A lovely outside space that is well maintained and set up to engage the children. A caring environment where the children feel happy and safe.

It's very sad to say goodbye after 6 years.

Highly recommended and we’ll miss the Nest when he leaves to start school in September.

My son has grown enormously in confidence since starting at the nursery. He is so content and happy in the environment, he feels safe there. All of the 'teachers' are amazing and it is so sad to say goodbye. It's been 7 years that we, as a family, have been using Copper Beach and we could not want for anything more. They have given our children the perfect start from which they can grow and the best stage on which to shine. Thank you from the very bottom of our hearts.

The nursery is brilliant, both my son and daughter attend and they have both loved it. The outside space is amazing and so much for the kids to do and explore. Forest School is amazing and my son loves it. I can't recommend this nursery enough.

The Nest has been an amazing nursery. All the staff contributed so much to my child's development and I will forever be grateful. We will miss the nursery.

The nursery has an amazing atmosphere as soon as you approach the building. The managers and all members of staff are friendly and approachable. They all have a good relationship with the children. I have and will continue to recommend this nursery for their wonderful setup and their curiosity approach that works wonders!

This is a lovely nursery, with a stimulating and nurturing learning environment and high expectations of the children.

Great nursery. Staff are very accommodating with our dietary requirements and cloth nappies. My daughter settled in very quickly and enjoys coming to the nursery.

I could see that my son has made great progress since he started at this nursery more than 6 months ago. He seemed to enjoy nursery and has made some great friends. Staff are caring and attentive and friendly. Focus week and Tapestry are great ways to get to know what he has been up to at nursery. All in all, we are happy that he is learning and developing well.

The Nest are an excellent nursery and the care that my son receives is of a very high standard. They also cater to my son's allergies and take every precaution to ensure his safety.

The staff are lovely and take time to talk to you about their day.

My son has been going to this nursery since January this year. The staff are so friendly. They made me feel he will be looked after. The nursery itself has a very warm feeling. The staff are very highly trained. They are friendly towards me and my son. He enjoys going there and isn't afraid to ask the staff for anything. Overall I will rate this nursery top standard.

My child has been attending since mid-September and whilst initially worried about how she would settle in, in hindsight I did not need to stress! The staff are so patient and every pick-up is accompanied with a quick breakdown of the day, including all the healthy and tasty food the children are served. I am completely satisfied with sending my child here and know that she is safe, happy and cared for by all staff.

My daughter is thoroughly thriving at her nursery. She gets to interact with children of all ages and being an only child I think this helps her to communicate better. Her language is very good and the nursery has really helped with her potty training as I was getting a bit stuck. Keep up the good work!

Very happy with the care that has been provided whilst my son has been at nursery. Staff are brilliant and have an excellent relationship with myself and my son. I love the curiosity approach and the natural resources that the nursery uses.
