The staff are without exception kind, committed, and wonderful role models. I think our son feels genuinely loved and talks about them regularly and with such warmth.

Jess, Parent of child

Every staff member I have met has been professional, loving and welcoming.

As a grandmother of 2 children who have had the incredible benefit of the provision offered by Claire and James at TPN I am so impressed by their work ethic, their utter devotion and concern for every single child in their care. The facilities, I have watched them grow and build, have been made with care, thought and FUN in mind. Every staff member I have met has been professional, loving and welcoming.

Rachel, Grandparent of 2 children

They have given their hearts and souls to The Nest.

Claire and James and the whole team go above and beyond, they have given their hearts and souls to The Nest and it is truly felt by all the children and parents.

James, Parent of 2 children

It is the village that every family needs.

It is completely unique in what it offers. Childcare for the whole family. Genuine support to the whole family. It is more than just another nursery. It is the village that every family needs to support them through the challenging younger years.

Sian, Parent of 3 children

Quite simply, Claire and James' vision is nothing short of outstanding. 

They have considered every aspect of the great outdoors for young children, creating a framework where children flourish, feel safe whatever the weather and truly learn through play and exploration.   have seen my grandchildren nurtured within a safe, creative and empowering environment which enables them to be curious, resilient and confident.  It is wonderful above all to see how happy they are there.I am certain that The Pheasant Nest will become an exemplar of what outstanding nursery education should be and very much hope that more and more children have the opportunity to benefit from this brilliant early years approach.
