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.

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.

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!

My daughter has attended Copper Beech since she was 16 months old and this week she flies the nest for school. Watching her progress over the last 3 years has been incredible and the nursery has played a huge part in who she is today. They have prepared her for her next big adventure and provided her
with so many skills she will need in the next stage of her life. The training of all the staff team means she is always surrounded by knowledgeable adults to help support her learning. Amazing staff team and amazing nursery.

It is hard to express in words how wonderful this nursery is. We have had two children attend over the past 5 years and the youngest continues to attend. He is very happy and settled and the staff know him, and each child in their care, inside out. We are confident in every aspect of the care provided
and have been impressed by all the staff, many of whom are very long serving which is always a good sign. The range of activities is vast, with so much creativity. Our son loves the visiting music sessions especially and enjoys every minute spent in the garden which has had a lot of time and money invested into making it a really special outdoor space. The home cooked food appears excellent and nutritious. Our eldest son left to start school in September and was encouraged in all aspects of self-care to help prepare him for the transition to school (which was surprisingly easy for a summer born and often shy child). Thank you to all at Copper Beech for your outstanding childcare.

We couldn't be happier with The Nest Nursery Copper Beech - our son absolutely loves it and often wants to stay longer when we come to collect him. It is obvious when we drop him off that he loves the staff and feels secure and comforted by all of them.


What we love in particular is the amount of

time the children spend outside, they are supervised outside in a really inspiring exciting garden every day with plenty of energetic play.


Indoors, the décor is lovely and calming with loads of really interesting activities especially others involving natural objects and everyday items which is evident in the way our son has progressed at home. This is the perfect environment to care for and nurture our son and we love it!

We are so happy with The Nest for our 18-month-old daughter.
She has been at the nursery since she was 7 months old and she loves it.
The staff all seem to really care about her and look after her as we would.
We love how calm the nursery and the children are compared to other nurseries we have seen.
Our
daughter is growing into a confident, happy toddler and so much of that is down to the experiences she has at the nursery.
We would absolutely recommend the nursery - it is fantastic.

My son has settled in well to nursery and really enjoys it.
All of the staff are friendly and cheerful all the time, giving thorough feedback at the end of each day.
The nursery uses a wide variety of natural materials and resources to help the children explore freely and they also have additional
music, dance and sing and sign sessions provided by external people.
The meals provided are varied and my son enjoys them.
The site and caring environment provided by the nursery is perfect for young children.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.956)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.956) out of 10 for The Nest Nursery Copper Beech is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.956 for The Nest Nursery Copper Beech is calculated as follows: ( (195 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 204 Ratings = 4.956

  • b) 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 17 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 17 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
