I have been to collect my niece on numerous occasions and it is always a joy to see her engaged in activities or playing with her friends. She clearly enjoys coming to nursery and talks non stop on the way home about what she has enjoyed and who she has played with during the day. As an experienced
practitioner myself, it is great to see the resources offered to the children are tailored to their needs but also add challenge and real-life experiences.


I would highly recommend this nursery!!

My grand daughter attends the nursery and I have picked her up on several occasions. She clearly really enjoys her time here and has made so many friends who she talks about all time when she visits. She has developed so much since she has been at nursery and it has really helped with her confidence
as she was always very shy before she started at nursery.

Both my children absolutely love this nursery. The staff are so welcoming, lovely and friendly. With the new nursery ethos I have been given so many new ideas and both my children have developed so much whilst here.
The staff have all been so supportive especially as one of my kids had hearing and
speech problems. They have fully prepared her for school.
This nursery really is a home from home. I would recommend it to anyone.

Overall, my experience at the nursery has been brilliant. I find the care for my children is excellent with regards to illnesses.
Also, their learning skills have come a long what and the nursery has helped contribute to this.
My boys enjoy going to nursery, so that makes me happy and comfortable
leaving my boys there.

A fantastic homely nursery. Having looked around other nurseries that seemed very institutional, we opted for The Nest Nursery Copper Beech as it was so different. The children are greeted so warmly by name as they enter by all staff - even those in the "other room". Most of the staff have been here
for many years, which just goes to show what an amazing setting they run. I love the fact that the children get to go outdoors in all weathers and explore the environment My son has been coming for 18 months now and loves it. The communication is great - my son's key worker makes an effort to chat to us at the end of the day and fill us in on what he has done and we love looking at the descriptions of conversations and photos on the online journal. When raised a concern about a speech difficulty that he was having and they made a special effort to work with him on it and even arranged for someone external to come and assess him.

It's a great nursery, management and staff are awesome. I can not fault them.
Whilst the under 2 years room is perfect it lacks potty training and toilet facilities. The over 2 years is small and appears overcrowded.
The staff are the best and make do with space. I am a bit disappointed with the
toilets, these could be better.
The space is too limited and I understand that the staff are doing the best they can.
They could benefit from more toilet cubicles to enable potty training and cleanliness. There is only 1 potty and 2 cubicles. The sink areas are good and appropriate. Rooms are clean and well equipped.

Our twin boys love going to this nursery. It has such a warm and inviting environment, with the most helpful and approachable staff any parent could ask for. They have catered so well for them as individuals.
Since going, both boys have shown significant leaps in their development, both socially and
physically. The nursery provides such a breadth of activities, the boys are always eager to go and they love music time. They always eat well and enjoy the nutritional onsite cooked meal. This is a brilliant nursery and we couldn't recommend it more highly.

We have recently become part of the Copper Beech community and are so pleased with the care provided for our son. Thanks to the kindness, support and enthusiasm of the staff our son is settling in well (first time at nursery). Staff take the time to help meet each child's needs. The unique environment
cultivates creativity and imagination and is very nurturing. We would definitely recommend this nursery to others.

Our 4-year-old daughter has been at The Nest Copper Beech for over a year. She is thriving in an environment and we can see that she is well cared for, happy, as well as developing new skills. The staff are all really friendly and are just so lovely and caring with all the children, everyone knows all
the children's names and are as enthusiastic at the end of the day as the beginning! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Nest nursery we have been very impressed with all aspects of her care.

Both of my boys have attended Copper Beech day nursery and have both been extremely happy there. The staff have always been supportive and approachable and I would not hesitate to recommend it to another family. The recent changes have improved the nursery further, particularly the development of the
outside area. The staff know the children well and take on board their likes and interests. We have been very happy with the experience our children have had at the nursery.

I really like the homely feel about the nursery. The staff seem to like their jobs and really care about the children. The food is made on-site and always sounds very yummy. The staff in the baby room seem to really enjoy planning activities that are age-appropriate and fun for the children.

A home from home! A small nursery but with a family atmosphere. I have had 3 children "grow" through the nursery over the past 8 years. The staff has hardly changed in this time which is a testament to the lovely environment. The recent owner has invested in improving the garden and rooms. On a practical
note; good opening hours and lovely home-cooked food for the children. The real reason to send your child here though is the staff who genuinely care so much about the children as well as getting to know you as a family.

Staff are friendly and helpful. My son who is now 16 months old settled in with ease and appears to enjoy his days at nursery. I'm extremely pleased we found The Nest Nursery Bopper beech and would definitely recommend it. I particularly like their use of Tapestry and the feedback books.

My daughter has attended this nursery since it opened, having previously attended another nursery. I was initially very impressed with the layout and the aim of the nursery, it was very natural with lots of natural colours and not the usual bright over the top colours and displays you usually attribute
to a nursery. The use of natural wooden toys, costumes (a personal favourite of my daughter) and the play spaces really stood out for me. On the occasions I have come to a stay and play session with my daughter, I have let her show me all the different aspects of the room(s) that she plays in and some of the activities that she does. The learning journey is a personal favourite as it lets me see how she is progressing which is what I would normally miss when she is at the nursery. My daughter comes home each week with new stories and songs that she has learnt. I couldn't ask for much more, she is ahead of her age in terms of talking counting and even starting to read and not even 3 yet.

My daughter has been attending Nest Nursery for over one year now. She enjoys coming to the nursery. They take very good care of her and ensure all our needs are met. Every day she learns something new and has come on leaps and bounds. The chef makes healthy meals and snacks which are a plus point and
the feedback process of what my child has done during the day is excellent. The staff are very reliable and they do everything they can to make my child comfortable. The nursery has a very homely feeling which is a plus. Iw ould definitely recommend this nursery to everyone who has a little one.

My child has really flourished since being at The Nest Nursery, her confidence, capabilities and her willingness to try new things is at a high, and her language is expressive, appropriate and far belies her age. It is just the right environment to grow and learn.
The staff are fantastic and seem to
get the best results without just pushing, just purely encouragement and support. They feel like extended family. The facilities are fantastic and the weekly menus are all freshly prepared and healthy and apparently moreish!
I cannot rate this nursery highly enough.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.953)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.953) 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.953 for The Nest Nursery Copper Beech is calculated as follows: ( (183 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 192 Ratings = 4.953

  • 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 16 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 16 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.
