The school is very clean and organized. My son is 4 years old, excited to go to school everyday,…read moreand has meaningful relationships with the teachers and staff. Everyone genuinely seems like they care for my child. I love how you don't smell anything when you walk into the school either. Price range is a bit more than other schools but it is well worth it in my opinion for the care and "amenities" (if you will) you receive. I recommend this school to anyone looking for more of a regular schedule and real curriculum for their child - sounds rigorous but it's a play based school and they learn so much through play!

Starting daycare for the first time with my 2-year-old daughter was nerve-wracking. Before…read moreenrolling her at The Nest - Middleton, we had a very bad experience at another daycare. She would come home unusually quiet, sit in a corner (completely unlike her), and wouldn't even smile. Even though they shared videos, something just didn't feel right. Within a week, we made the decision to pull her out. After speaking with Ms. Tina at The Nest - Middleton, I immediately felt reassured by her care and transparency. But more importantly, I could see the difference in my daughter almost right away. She was happy again, back to her energetic self, and excited to tell us about her day--what songs she sang, activities she did, and even interacting with other kids. What really stood out to me was the level of attention, communication, and genuine care from the staff. As a parent, that peace of mind is everything. It's clear they focus not just on supervision, but on creating a positive, engaging learning environment where kids feel comfortable and supported. Overall, I highly recommend The Nest Schools to any parent looking for a safe, nurturing, and structured place where their child can grow, learn, and genuinely enjoy their time.

We're all in! Both kids went to preschool, and now we're in the elementary school and so impressed with the teachers and staff. If you like project-based learning, group-learning, child-directed learning, outdoor learning... it's the best place around.

This place is like a magical wonderland for kids! They have the largest art room I've ever seen--seriously, it's big enough to host a small art heist! And guess what? Everything in there is free to use with the cost of admission! I felt like I hit the jackpot! Plus, there's a rock climbing wall, which is a nice touch. Nothing says "family fun" like watching your kids scale a wall while you sip your coffee and contemplate your life choices! The place is decked out with fun artwork and quirky characters that make it feel like a playground straight out of a storybook. And they even have a treehouse! I half-expected to find a squirrel in a top hat serving snacks up there! Located in a shopping plaza, this spot is perfect for hitting up before or after errands. Who knew you could combine grocery shopping with a mini adventure? I highly recommend taking your kiddos here for a day filled with fun and laughter. It's a win-win for parents and kids alike--because a tired child is a happy child!

She was gentle and made sure I was comfortable- even offered me (for the first time being a customer) a complimentary neck/shoulder massage. May need to try and book her again before she graduates.

This is absolutely the worst school I have ever been to. Please reconsider before going here. This…read moreschool is only good for the locals who stay around the school. They have tried to cover up several race wars and school shootings. You are much better off going to Fayetteville state or another school in the area. It's not worth your college experience by any means. Administration does not care and will find excuses for employees. If you address any concerns then you will become a target. After 4 years I still have trouble getting certain things done because this school rather be petty than to just do their assigned job. I highly do not recommend especially if you are of African American descent and advise you to reconsider.

Our guide was a funny, very talkative young man who was very down to earth and kept us moving along. The campus is so pretty and very well-kept. There are many crepe myrtle trees and the landscaping was really lovely. Of course, my review is just based on our tour and not the actual quality of the school, however we have heard very good things about UNCP. We really liked the diversity and very inclusive feeling of the school. UNCP is definitely a contender in our school picks, very impressed with what we learned today about the school and saw in the tour, etc. About a two hour drive for us each way, not bad. Really liked the small town feel of the campus and loved the fact that it's the safest of the UNC campuses!
