As an ex–childcare worker with over 13 years of experience in the industry, choosing the right centre for my child was never something I took lightly. The Nest has exceeded every expectation. From day one, I have felt completely comfortable and confident leaving my now 18-month-old son in their care something I never imagined feeling so easily, especially without me being in the building. The level of professionalism, warmth, and genuine care shown by the educators is outstanding. My son has grown so much since starting here emotionally, socially, and developmentally. He has formed strong, trusting relationships not only with the educators in his room, but across the entire centre, which speaks volumes about the culture and connection within the team. The environment is nurturing, safe, and thoughtfully run, and it’s clear the educators truly know and care for each child as an individual. As both a parent and a former educator, I can honestly say this centre sets the standard. I am so grateful to have found a place where my child feels secure, supported, and happy every day. Highly recommend to any family looking for a centre they can truly trust.

We are so incredibly happy with the education and nourishment that the Nest provides! We have had our daughter (whos now a big kid) and now our son come though The Nest and the staff have been nothing short of spectacular. A point to note, they have a professionally trained Chef on site to provide the children with not only yummy food they will enjoy, but also highly nutritious. My son has requested multiple times for recipes from The Chef, as he calls her, and we have fun replicating (trying our best to 😂) the recipes at home! Hats off to all staff!

We are incredibly grateful to The Nest Early Education Centre of Excellence for making our first childcare experience truly outstanding! As we have no family support nearby, The Nest quickly became our extended family. The caring, dedicated staff created a warm, nurturing environment that made both us and our child feel safe, supported, and loved. From the moment we walked in, we knew it was a special place. The staff go above and beyond to ensure each child is cared for in the best possible way, nurturing them with the kind of attention and affection we could only hope for. We are proud and thankful to be part of The Nest family, and we wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking exceptional childcare. Thank you all for providing such amazing care and for making this experience so memorable!

My girls attended The Nest and what a beautiful day care and beautiful educators. Highly recommend this day care to all families.

We highly recommend the Nest. Before our daughter started last year, we visited 5 different childcares in GC and today we are grateful we have waited until we found this amazing center. Sarah a great and caring educator, accompanied her from the first day, teaching her the language and inviting our daughter to socialize in a new culture for her. This year, Marian, has also been an exceptional teacher and educator. All the staff are lovely and really know how to make kids (and parents) feel happy, welcome and contained. This wouldn't be possible without the guidance and experience of Bec. Moreover, the center is always spotless!. Thanks The Nest for making her and us feel as home :) Juliana

My daughter Grace and I absolutely love The Nest, all educators are very friendly and loving, the director Bec is a warm and big hearted person. My daughter Grace loves to go to kindy everyday and she’s always very happy when she’s in the care. I’ll 100% recommend this center, this is the place where your kids learn love, respect and care for others. 👏👍👍

This is the best childcare centre I have ever been to. We have moved around a bit and have experienced four different centres. The teachers were so lovely and really made our little boy feel very loved and welcomed. They seemed to take a real interest in him and worked hard to make sure he felt happy and comfortable in his environment. He would comment on how much he loved his teachers and would be very excited to see them every day. The centre itself is beautifully designed and the resources they have are amazing. The centre is very clean and well looked after. Honestly I only have good things to say about it and I'm sad that we haven't managed to find another one like it. Bec runs a tight ship which is what you need in a centre director. Every day I dropped my son off here I felt very happy about leaving him there.

The Nest is the absolute best daycare centre on the gold coast. From the moment I walked in the door I felt so certain that this was the place I was willing to trust with my little one. The centre is immaculate which really satisfys my ocd🤣The manager Bec is the most accomadating/helpful/caring woman. She was always there to answer my calls of apprehension when transitioning my little one, in which happens so quick as she was so happy there. Miss Kristy has also been an absolute angel to us. She was one of the main reasons I choose the Nest. She has the most calm/nurturing/caring and beautiful soul. She made my little one feel almost like she was at home. I know it was the best decision choosing this centre as its second to none. Thanks so much to all the Nest team for making me a very happy and trusting working mommy 😊

I could not recommend The Nest highly enough! The educators are so loving, gentle, creative and thoughtful - I know my little girl is in such competent and capable hands. I love that they embrace the Reggio Emilia philosophy in providing the best possible care and education. So thankful to have found this boutique little centre!

Amazing staff, great facilities, and a very loving environment. My little one loves going so much. Highly recommend.
