Review from Daphnee M (Mother of Child) published on 16 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
All of the staff are very supportive, caring and attentive to my boys needs and their developement has improved so much within the setting. They're always happy to go to nursery which makes it reassuring as a parent.
The nursery is brand new with lots of amenities and the outside area is enormous which is hard to find in many nurseries in Newham.

I would absolutely recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience
Our experience so far with the Nest has been positive. The nursery itself has been fully refurbished with everything completly new. My toddler was so excited to start after visiting for the stay and place session. She has been loving her time there. The staff have been extremly helpful and willing to go that extra mile.

With a happy toddler who wants to go Nursery even on her off days speaks for itself, its a thumbs up from us!

Review from Hafsa P (Mother of Child) published on 15 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son started the nursery about a month ago and we have been incredibly impressed. The staff have created a warm and nurturing environment, and are very patient, making his transition from home so much smoother. It is wonderful to be informed about him interacting with peers and enjoying his play, especially outdoors. I really look forward to and appreciate the little updates they provide while he is there. They provide a very delicious and nutritious menu for meals and snacks and I am hoping my little one starts to enjoy those soon too

Review from Hana M (Mother of Child) published on 15 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The team at The Nest are conscientious and responsive so that leaving my baby with them had been much easier than I expected!
The managers and key workers keep me updated with food, activities and naps and importantly keenly receive any feedback I share. We love getting pictures and messages about our son throughout the day. Our son enjoys the range of activities which include outdoor and indoor play all with fantastic resources.
The food and sleep facilities are wonderful too. Again the team have worked with us to ensure my son continues to eat and sleep well!
We haven't had any safeguarding concerns but the team have been very helpful with questions we've had around intimate care.

We're grateful for having a wonderful team to take care of him during a challenging transition to nursery!
