Welcome to Buddy’s Book Review!
A review of our favorite children’s books here at The Nest Schools. We thoroughly believe in the power of literature, and we are excited to introduce wonderful new children’s books to our families in hopes that they will expand their own home libraries as we expand our own!
How do we review and rate each book?
We rate in terms of its likeness to our core values: KINDNESS, WELLNESS, INNOVATION, and FUN. Five feathers will be given for the core value we think each book best represents.

The Day The Crayons Quit is a funny story about a box of crayons who write letters to Duncan, expressing their complaints and frustrations. From overuse to neglect, each crayon has a unique personality and problem, teaching lessons about communication, creativity, and compromise.

We have been at The Nest for over a year now and absolutely love it! They do so many fun activities with our toddler like painting and sensory play. I feel at ease knowing there are wonderful teachers like Miss Emily there to care for son. I look forward to the pictures she posts of him on the app all day.





We’ve been bringing our son here since he was about 12 weeks old (now 18 months for reference) and I can’t tell you how amazing our experience has been. Our son loves his teachers and we have a great rapport with them as well as Liz who runs the school. Choosing a daycare was a difficult decision for us as you’re choosing who gets to teach and help raise your little one(s). But right from the start we felt right at home with The Nest here in Westlake. Our son is thriving and we know he’s getting excellent care from start to finish each day. He also gets fresh meals 3 times a day in between playing, learning, and resting. Thank you to the best nest for helping us with our most precious possession.

Since enrolling our son at The Nest, we’ve seen incredible growth and development in him. The staff creates such a warm and welcoming environment, and he is always excited to go to school each day. What truly stands out are the unique, interactive activities they do with the kids everything is thoughtfully designed to spark curiosity, creativity, and confidence. It’s clear how much he has learned and grown socially, emotionally, and academically since starting here. A very special thank you goes to Morgan, Leyanna, Tori, and Azra you’ve each had such a direct impact on our son’s day-today care and happiness. The comfort and trust he feels with you is priceless, and as parents, it means the world to us to know he is so well cared for. We couldn’t be happier with our experience at The Nest, and we highly recommend it to any family looking for a nurturing, engaging, and supportive childcare school.
