September 8, 2024 at 3:03 pmWe have found the curiosity approach to be extremely beneficial. Lots of education happens outside as well as inside. They always have time for a chat or a phone call when there is something important to discuss. They spend lots of time outside playing and engaging with the garden. We especially like that the setting is not full of plastic toys and instead is filled with natural products. What I also really like is that it is not just a “little school”- this is a place to explore, but through games and enjoyment. Our boy has really enjoyed his time at The Nest Nursery Lime Tree. The personnel really make this nursery setting superb. All are extremely caring and truly knowledgeable about all sorts of aspects in regards to kid growth such as toilet training, diet, teeth cleaning etc. This is a lovely childcare centre. Children are free to explore and engage in activities that spark their interest.

September 17, 2024 at 7:08 pmFacilities are great, and the outdoor space at the rear of the early‑years hub allows for some great activities experiences. Relationships with parents are also great. My young lad has been at the childcare centre for around two and a half years, and we have been extremely thrilled with the care and the time that my young lad has received. The philosophy of the childcare centre, the curiosity approach, allows the little ones to have great experiences day in and day out. Staff turn over is exceptionally low, so the little ones have the benefits of developing good relationships with the all the crew. I would advocate the childcare centre without hesitation. All the personnel genuinely support for all the little ones and obviously treasure working at the nursery setting.

September 26, 2024 at 7:26 amI was desperate to get my girl into the Nest as I’d heard great things and I really believe in the curiosity approach. Since joining at 10 months, my young lady has come on leaps and bounds. On viewing the childcare centre, I was impressed with the beautiful resources and natural objects the kids have access to. Staff are extremely welcoming and approachable, always pleased to listen to any concerns or answer any questions. I would definitely advocate the Nest to other parents. Being a lockdown baby she hadn’t spent much time with other little ones but within a few days, she was truly comfortable and clearly enjoys her time at the Nest. It is clear they form lovely relationships and genuinely care!

October 20, 2024 at 8:34 pmMy boy started at the Nest in April ’22 just after his 1st birthday. I would and have recommended this nursery setting to others! My boy is so thrilled there now and I am over the moon he has settled in so well. I enjoy the ethos of the nursery setting and the curiosity approach and actually, the childcare centre has taught me so much as well about parenting. As a truly anxious mum, they also helped calmed my nerves and we worked together to help my boy settle in as quickly as possible. It took him 3 months to settle in because it was a new space but every single member of crew helped tremendously to help get him settled in. The team are all so cordial, caring and loving towards all of the little ones which is so great to see. I treasure the nursery setting itself as well, there are two rooms for the babies which is great as they are able to move between the two rooms which offer different types of games, the garden is so big and has lots to explore as well! I am a much more relaxed mum now my little one is delighted at this childcare centre.

November 18, 2024 at 6:11 pmI enjoy if he comes home in a different set of clothes then what I sent him in – treasure messy games! Fantastic early‑years hub – cherish the curiosity approach. My little one is thriving there and seems to really enjoy himself. Independence is encouraged but also working together and helping others.

December 1, 2024 at 3:45 pmMy little one enjoys playing and exploring at The Nest. Children absorb and develop in a creative and engaging environment. Outstanding attention and support. There are many opportunities to explore the resources and activities on offer. The personnel are professional, kind and caring.

December 3, 2024 at 3:21 pmThe ladies at The Nest made the transition much easier for myself and him by easing him in gently and communicating with me regularly. The Nest is a beautiful, warm, welcoming space, and I could not fault it. A truly magical space for babies and young little ones to flourish, thrive, treasure, playtime and discover. I used to, and sometimes still do, call several times a day to see how he is doing, personnel are always welcoming on the phone and take time to talk to me about how his day is going. He has great experiences at the childcare centre from messy outdoor games to cuddles and stories on a dream coracle under fairy lights. My little boy started at The Nest in February 2021, a few weeks before his 1st birthday. He has formed a good bond with several key workers, and it was nice for me to hear that he has a few special people that he will go and sit with for a cuddle when needed. As a first time Mum, I was extremely anxious about leaving him and worried an awful lot about how he would cope with the separation.

December 6, 2024 at 12:59 amThe Nest is a beautiful early‑years hub with caring team. He started in January 2021 and settled in straight away. I enjoy the natural and forestry element of the early‑years hub, and cherish that my young lad can explore his surroundings, developing his independent and social skills. Sending my young lad here is one of the best decisions I have made.

January 26, 2025 at 8:17 amWe have been fortunate and satisfied with our choice. The main strength must be the caring team and the activities provided to youngsters. The decoration with natural colours and materials is also first‑rate. Excellent early‑years hub.

January 31, 2025 at 7:30 pmMy young lady (now at school) had a lovely time at the Nest Nursery Lime Tree. I particularly like the approach at this childcare centre, which includes messy games, lots of time outdoors and interesting activities that you might not do at home. Music and books also playtime a big role at Lime Tree, and both my kids really enjoy absorb and sign and other music sessions. All the members of personnel are truly caring, and we can tell that they enjoy their work with the little ones. My young lad (14-months) currently goes to the early‑years hub, and he adores it.

March 4, 2025 at 5:45 pmMy little one joined in January 2022. Thank you all for your hard work. He more or less settled in straight away at the nest. All the personnel here are so lovely. It took him a truly long time to settle in at his previous early‑years hub. We are provided with important updates always. It’s extremely difficult leaving your kid to go to work but I feel reassured that my young lad is in the best hands. There is a family vibe as soon as you walk in and a homely feeling. I put this down to the team being so patient and attentive towards all the kids. He was enrolled at a previous nursery setting but they permanently ceased trading in December 2021.

March 6, 2025 at 5:15 amWould wholeheartedly suggest. We enjoy The Nest Lime Tree childcare centre. Communication with key workers is great, and we all enjoy the curiosity approach that they use! Resources are all natural, and food is great. All three of my boys have been truly thrilled there.

March 31, 2025 at 2:57 pmAll the team are welcoming and lovely! I treasure the curiosity approach and it’s perfect for my little girl. My girl has settled in so well and really enjoys her time there. I was truly anxious for her to start but everyone at the nursery setting were fantastic with reassuring me and my little one. My girl started the in June 2021.

April 22, 2025 at 1:04 pmFrom the moment I walked into this nursery setting with my boy, we fell in enjoy with it, and it’s ‘home from home’ feel. When my young lad started at 9-months-old, I was so nervous leaving him for the first time, but the personnel reassured me, and when I collected my thrilled baby, that reassured me further. The early‑years hub environment is beautiful, and the personnel are truly caring and attentive. All the crew are passionate about what they do, and this shows in how they attention for all the little ones, and the quality feedback I get at the end of the day telling me everything he has been up to throughout his day. My young lad has been at this childcare centre for a year now, and we cherish it; wholeheartedly recommended.

April 23, 2025 at 8:19 amReally lovely and kind team at the childcare centre. The app is extremely accommodating and well updated with picture and assessment of my little ones. My daughter’s settled in really nicely. They picked up a lot from the instructors and other youngsters.

April 24, 2025 at 8:21 amThere are lots of activities for the little ones and I would endorse this nursery setting to anyone. Amazing early‑years hub. The team are lovely and extremely accommodating. Lovely setting and my youngster is always delighted when they are there.

May 19, 2025 at 6:30 pmThe team are really nice and supportive. All the instructors are really cordial and always help and focus each kid to explore accordingly to their nature and exploring abilities. My little one just treasures this childcare centre, she learned many creative things here.

May 21, 2025 at 7:55 amThank you to my daughter’s key worker and all of the team for making this a extremely smooth transition. She has settled in truly quickly since the start of this year and warms to all of the personnel at the childcare centre too. Thank you to all of the team at The Nest Nursery Lime Tree. We are so delighted with our daughter’s advancement at this early‑years hub. We cannot have chosen a better setting for our young lady to thrive in.

May 28, 2025 at 2:02 pmIt is beautiful inside and out, there are always beautiful activities set up for the kids to explore. My little one is definitely thriving at childcare centre and comes home with a new word he’s learnt every time! The personnel are always truly cordial and pleased to see us. My young lad and I absolutely cherish The Nest Nursery Lime Tree!

June 18, 2025 at 12:11 amWe choose Lime Tree’s as it has a no plastic policy – we have enough plastic toys at home to activities with. My little one keeps some routine, and we get some R and R! The only slight drawback is that they don’t offer term time only, but that’s not all bad. We wanted a nursery setting that would offer something different. The team are extremely caring towards the little ones and always available to talk too. During Covid, the standards have remained high, and the level of support for the little ones and families have been excellent. With the curiosity approach, it offers a safe place to absorb and take risks. If you are looking for a early‑years hub, a tour is definitely recommended! The Nest Nursery Lime Tree is such a beautiful place for your little one to grow. They try to fulfil last-minute extra day requests, which has been truly supportive during Covid.
