We believe that the arts and play are central to building curiosity and lifelong learners. Nest children (Nesties) and their parents value the lifelong friendships that are built in this special space. A small enchanted corner of Longfield Hall that fires a child's imagination. We have secure gardens on site which children are free to explore, as well as being a short skip to glorious Myatts Field Park for teacher-led discovery.

My daughter is incredibly happy at this pre-school. They do AMAZING classes and activities and have lovely, passionate, professional and sweet staff!
My daughter has developed so much since starting here. She’s always happy in the morning, getting ready to go to school and has improved speaking, listening, sharing and confidence since she started - which I’m so pleased about!!
Very happy with The Nest and the team! So glad we found them last year. I wish we did earlier. Would 1 million% recommend.

My son is currently at The Nest, and I’m so glad I sent him there, it is a brilliant setting. Lovely staff, and not too big, so everything is very personal and the children/parents know all of the staff. They have been great with my son and really seemed to ‘get’ him and his quirks very quickly. Staff are really kind and helpful. Juliet the manager is fab too. Lovely lessons (French, cooking, Forrest school, computers, dance/drama and ceramics) and trips organised every term. Highly recommend!
