Our son is excited to go to school, the rooms are clean, and we always feel like the teachers are happy to see him.

We enjoy the time spent with our child, teaching her new and exciting things that she looks forward to sharing with us. Our daughter truly enjoys the relationships she has with each of her teachers and friends.

My child has learned so much in just the short 6 months she’s been attending the Nest. She absolutely loves all of her teachers and thrives on the routine/ structure the school provides.

The teachers are all so friendly and I can see they truly care about all the kids. I like how they communicate through the app with the daily activities and pictures. I like the curriculums and all the imaginary play they get involved with. I live that the curriculum includes exercising or learning about art as well.

Jared has thrived at the Nest School. We have been grateful for the teachers he has developed a relationship with. We can tell they care about him. We have appreciated the consistency. There has never been an issue with coverage for his classes. The people who work here are dedicated.

The children are always the driving focus of each choice made around their care and education. The teachers know my children well, care for them with kindness and compassion. There is clear planning and development through the curricula adopted. It’s a beautiful school and lovely place to be!

I love the structure of the curriculum for each class at the Nest. The staff seem to be very invested in the kids and the place is also clean and classrooms equipped with lots of hands on learning tools and activities! The portal provides us peace of mind as to what our children are doing throughout the day too. The Community events and festivals and fundraisers are also nice. We love supporting the community but it also feels like we are fostering our own Nest community of parents too :)

Absolutely wonderful school. My son loves going. He learns new words and other things weekly. The food is healthy and fresh. The activities are well structured, educational, and fun. His teachers are caring and superb. I’m delighted he’s at Nest.

The Nest is the Best!!!! What I love most is the care that the teachers have for the students. My children's needs are their first priority. The communication from the school is also welcomed. My children love the nest! Keep up the great work!

The Nest schools really go the extra mile to promote fun, education and inclusion. They have kind, experienced teachers using a good secure app system to provide frequent status updates. They have nutritious food. They are safe, well staffed, and clean. We know that we can trust them. Some highlights: lots of outdoor activities, lots of creative activities involving music, books, arts and crafts, etc.

We have experience at a few daycares throughout Clayton and Raleigh areas as well as Wake Forest. Hands down, the Nest schools have impressed me the most. We love the teachers, curriculum and the cleanliness! The entire team is great! They go above and beyond to communicate and are always on top of sharing great pictures. Huge shout out to Miss Meagan, and Miss Sandra in Ducklings and Miss Nicole in Penguins 2. All have been fantastic teachers for my children, and consistently go above and beyond! They are gems! You do not want to lose them. I have also recently met, Miss Ashley in Penguins 2 and she is also fabulous. My son just transitioned to pre-k yesterday and I am already impressed with his new teachers and how they have facilitated the curriculum and transitioned my son. Miss Tina and Lisa also deserve shout outs and are assets to the Middleton school!


Knightdale, NC
I enjoy that my son, who is almost 3 and dealing with speech delay, is able to fit in with the other children in his class who are verbal. I was worried he would be left out, but in fact it is the complete opposite. The school has helped him grow in his exploration of life and assist with Speech Therapy by allowing 3rd party agencies to come in and provide the therapy. All of the teachers have been incredibly nice and welcoming, as my son is my 3rd and final child, this is my first experience with a Montessori style school, my only regret is not getting my older 2 children into this type of daycare when they were of age.
