Return children recursively in nested array.

I have a model named Page
which can have multiple children, which in return can have its own children (and so on).
I would like to have a functiion like findChildren
that would return (given a node/parent) children and its grandchildren in a nested array.
For example:
{
name: 'parent',
children: [
{
name: 'child1',
},
{
name: 'child2',
children: [
{
name: 'grandchild1',
children: [*so on*],
}
}
]
}

findDescendants
is the function that will give you the result you are looking for but in a flat array.
That said I like the idea of creating a nested array from a flat array. I imagine it as a utility function that take the result of any function call and format it into a nested array tree.
