All Teachers are extremely attentive. Director and Assistant Director are tremendous with communication. My son is very well taken care of. We’ve had my son in multiple KinderCare locations and Child Care Network. Nothing compares to the Nest.

The school is clean, my son is learning so much and enjoys coming to school everyday. It truly feels like the staff genuinely care about my son!

Our family couldn’t love The Nest Schools more! We’ve been with them since April 2023 and are so glad we found them for our kids. They started at 3.5 years old and 6 months, with our oldest being nervous and needing extra love - which he got tenfold! Now at 5.5 and 2.5 they love their friends, their teachers and all the staff. We can’t say enough about the Clayton Mechanical location!

We really enjoy the Nest. Our daughter LOVES her teachers and they truly go above and beyond to show that they truly care about her. I really love the communication and updates throughout the day - it makes being at work a bit easier knowing she is in good hands throughout the day.

I’ve been absolutely blown away by the level of care and attention my child receives at The Nest School on Mechanical. From day one, the staff has made us feel welcome and part of a close-knit community. The caregivers are warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in my child’s growth and happiness. The environment is clean, safe, and full of enriching activities that keep my little one engaged and excited to go each day. I love how they blend fun with learning—I’ve seen noticeable improvements in my child’s social skills and curiosity. Plus, the regular updates and photos give me peace of mind knowing my child is thriving while I’m at work. I couldn’t ask for a better place for my child to grow and learn!

I love the sense of community. From the Director to teachers (even teachers who my kids don't have) and then even to other parents- they all make it feel like such a welcoming environment. Finding a daycare you can trust is one of the hardest things my husband and I have done, especially after experiencing one that left us constantly worried and guilty for leaving our child there. At The Nest, my kids love going and we feel comfortable and excited to know they are taken care of, they are loved, and they are learning.

My daughter loves going to school daily, and I feel confident sending her there. It makes my mommy heart happy knowing she has so much fun learning at school and loves her teachers.

The school is run so well. Susan and Tamara do a fantastic job and they are constantly helping around and making sure everything runs smoothly. The one thing I loved about the school is the naturalness of it. Most toys are wooden and the playgrounds are all natural structures. I love having my kids in an environment that isn't overrun by noise making and plastic toys.

The teachers are kind and my daughter is so happy every day when I drop her off which lets me know she's really enjoying it. She's also learned (and continues to learn) so much that she surprises me with how much she knows. We love The Nest and would *highly* recommend them to anyone!

The teachers are amazing!!! As well as the management staff. You can go to anyone in the building if there is a problem and it will quickly get taken care of.

We love the Nest! Everyone there knows us and our daughter. She is loved each and every day. She enjoys going to school and loves playing with friends. They communicate well and we always know what is going on in my daughter's classroom!

The family atmosphere and the connection I have with my son’s teacher. Additionally, the updates and pictures through App.
