CELEBRATING A DECADE OF HELPING CHILDREN SUCCEED!

A History of Success

For more than a decade, NEST has been a steady presence in our community — showing up, standing in the gap, and ensuring that children who might otherwise fall through the cracks are seen, supported, and given every opportunity to thrive. We’ve walked alongside families facing hardship, teachers balancing impossible needs, and students who, despite enormous challenges, still dare to dream big.

What People are Saying

At NEST, every child’s success story begins with the love and support of a caring community—and we are overjoyed to share what our community thinks of the job we're doing.

  • “I just wanted to say how impressed I am by NEST, and in particular, your commitment to the program and to providing a structured and nurturing approach in equal measure. Your students trust you, and this is because they understand how much you care for them, and how well you understand them as little humans.”

    Retired Baden teacher, Tutor

  • “A few weeks ago, we discussed {my student's} time in NEST and the concern that he was not turning in homework. Since then, I have noticed improvement—he has begun completing homework again. We have had multiple conversations about using his NEST time wisely, and I truly appreciate the progress he has made. Thank you to the NEST team for your support—your efforts are clearly making a positive impact.”

  • “It just makes sense that it’s all taking place in one of our buildings, where kids already know they’re loved and supported.”

    Mike Broadwater. Loveland Superintendent

  • “I’ve seen firsthand how building confidence through education can transform lives, and I’m deeply committed to NEST CLC’s mission of empowering every child to reach their full potential by fostering resilience and a growth mindset. Together, we can instill a lifelong love of learning that benefits kids and their communities.”

    Jess Byrd, NEST Board Member

  • “I believe every child deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, and reach their full potential, regardless of their circumstances. Having raised our family in Loveland, I recognize how important a strong, supportive community is in shaping young lives. NEST’s commitment to creating opportunities for children and families resonates deeply with my belief that investing in our youth is one of the most meaningful ways we can strengthen our community and build a brighter future. I’m honored to be part of that mission.”
