What families are saying

Nothing means more to us than the trust families place in Children's Nest. Here are a few words from the families who have been part of our community.

Special moment

Today, there were eight families who took their kids apple picking for some fall fun, all of whom met at your school! These kids have known each other since they were 18 months old, or younger, and reveled in the time spent together today because, as you know, they are all mostly in different schools now. If not for the Nest, as we affectionately call it, the friendships made by both child AND parent might never have fostered, and we are all so grateful for the support and love we've found in these friendships — so thank you!

A parent's letter

Over the last nine years, my family has had the most wonderful experience with Children's Nest. The Children's Nest center has partnered with us in raising our three children, now aged 4, 7, and 9. I truly do not know what we would have done without them! Each of our children started at Children's Nest when they were about four months old. My older two children graduated the pre-K program and were more prepared than most children in kindergarten. The care at Children's Nest is just superior. The teachers become family friends, and we were always sad to move on from one to the next. We are so grateful for our entire experience — and if you are looking for care in the Merrick/Bellmore area, look no more. Children's Nest should be top on your list.

A parent's letter

You are our very first experience with daycare. We felt lost, sad, scared, and all the emotions a parent feels when their child first starts daycare. We are so blessed that Children's Nest had a spot for her — never knowing just how great of an experience our children (and us) would have with you. Please NEVER forget the lasting impact you have on not only all of the children, but on the parents as well. There is no other job that is more important than yours. Every day we leave the most precious part of our lives in your hands. We can NEVER express how appreciative we are for ALL of you.
