Default Nursery Beds: location

Is it ok to locate a nursery bed in a East South East facing bed. I.e. does
the early to mid morning sun position cause any problems?

(that is potential frost in the early morning being broken by bright morning
sunshine).

I have heard that early morning sun on the frosted leaves of young plants
can kill them off. I think a nursery bed would be best sited where any
frost on leaves melts slowly before any direct sunlight hits them.
