Review from Vicky H (Mother of Child) published on 28 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I cannot recommend this nursery highly enough! My son who was 9 months old has settled in incredibly quickly and is always so happy to see the staff who are truly wonderful which really puts my mind at ease as a worried parent. They are friendly, supportive, and create a warm atmosphere that makes every visit enjoyable. The meals provided are nutritious and delicious, and the gorgeous rooms are full of new exciting experiences for my son to explore . The free flow nursery setup, along with the stunning garden, offers a fantastic environment for the children to explore and learn it has a really homely feel to it . Thank you to the staff for creating such a positive experience for my son. It's the perfect environment for him to feel happy, comfortable, and safe. Highly recommend!

Review from Shama S (Mother of Child) published on 12 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

One of the best nurseries we've been to by far. The setting and ethos is well planned around children and their development. The Forest School is amazing and there's always little trips for the children and involvement of parents. You will always see the manager with the kids taking part and being involved. The manager and all the staff are always approachable, polite and have your child's best interest at heart and their dedication is seen at all times. Would highly recommend!

Overall Experience

My little one joined The Nest Nursery Wood End at the beginning of January. We are now in the fourth week and she is settled in. She enjoys her day here and her food and sleep routine are back to normal. She enjoys the garden which she is able to freely explore under the supervision of the team. The team encourages independence when eating and drinking. I would totally recommend The Nest Nursery.

Overall Experience

I could not recommend this nursery any higher. Both my children have attended and I'm so comfortable leaving them there. The staff are highly trained, helpful, polite, welcoming and respectful. They notice changes with your child instantly and act accordingly. Focus week is amazing, very insightful as you get personal feedback on your child's development and app updates are lovely.

Overall Experience
The nursery is great. I would recommend it for everyone.
The staff are friendly and professional. They have great outdoor space - a large garden with a secret garden and a newly built pond. Great activities.
My daughter loves the music lady activity and forest school adventures.

It is quite expensive but I believe you get your money's worth.

Review from L B (Mother of Child) published on 9 January 2024 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I cannot rate The Nest highly enough. My daughter has been attending six months now and has developed so much since joining, thanks to all the activities the staff put on. All the staff at The Nest are wonderful and always happy which reflects on how great the nursery is run. The daily activities are ever changing and the curiosity approach to learning seems to have really helped my daughter in her development. Knowing my daughter enjoys going there and knowing that she is in safe hands keeps me reassured daily. Thank you The Nest!

We love The Nest! All the staff are fantastic without exception. They always say hello to my son by name and make all the children feel special. I can't fault it. The outdoor space is exceptional in particular. My son has thrived here. I almost don't want him to go to school.

We couldn't be happier with everything the Nest Nursery provided us. The experience was brilliant. Our daughter absolutely loved everything and everyone in the nursery (especially her key person). We couldn't ask for better teachers. We will miss everyone but will be popping in to visit everyone. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Overall Experience

This nursery is fantastic. When my son started I had speech and language concerns and some sensory questions and they’ve been incredibly supportive and helpful - he’s flourished in their environment and they keep him engaged in activities that he enjoys doing and support him in exploring new ones. All the staff are lovely and the environment at the nursery is beautiful.
