Serendipitys Day Nursery & Pre-School Bingham is an excellent nursery.


The staff in all rooms are welcoming, helpful, informative and caring. My child feels safe and has a small place in his heart for the staff there.
Since starting with Serendipitys at the age of 9 months, he has grown in confidence

and has developed in many areas.


They are always doing something new and educational, like French or topical discussions about the animals, bugs, the body etc.
I love the fact that Serendipity's take my son swimming every Tuesday, as again I can see that his confidence in water has grown and he is slowly learning to swim. Furthermore, he has been learning French once a week.


My son has suffered from severe allergies, they handle his condition really well and accommodate his needs.


I couldn't fault the nursery and would recommend them to anyone.

I have already recommended to friends. We moved our son to the nursery last November having moved areas. Wish we had made the move earlier, he has gained so much confidence in all areas including speech which he has had difficulties with. The staff are truly amazing and supportive with a friendly and
professional attitude, always smiling and nothing is too much trouble. Above all, they really listen and act on any queries or concerns you have, whether that be an issue in nursery or helping when contacting external sources of support.

This is an incredible setting. I am so pleased my son attends here.


The staff are engaging, always enthusiastic, and operate a setting that is full of activities, and focus on the whole child.


He loves it, and that's the most crucial indicator for me.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My little girl has been at Serendipitys since January this year and has settled in really well due to the amazingly kind, caring and devoted staff. I have been kept well informed of her progress and felt like I could discuss any aspects of her care with the staff at any time. We had a very poorly
little girl in April and the managers went beyond the call of duty to assist me in getting her to the GP and then to hospital while my husband was away on business. They didn't leave my side until they were certain my little girl and I were ok. I never expected it but it went a long way in showing that they not only care for the safety and well being of the children but also the parents. Their approach to accommodating working parents is also really flexible, far more so than previous day nurseries I have dealt with, and this makes life that little easier. My little girl is very happy here and loves all her carers and little friends. You know what they say, happy baby = happy mummy!! :)

My daughter who is now 11 went to Serendipitys and thoroughly enjoyed her time there, before going onto school. Now my 11 month old son goes 2 full days a week, he is loving his time there. I've never had a problem dropping him off, he's always so excited to see the lovely girls that look after him.
He sleeps and eats well, also the structure of how they make the children progress through stages is fantastic. Even as babies having targets to hit. I would highly recommend this nursery. The staff are all so lovely.

Our daughter has been at Serendipitys 3 days a week since she was 9 months old. Initially joining the little babies room then transitioning on to big babies, then toddlers and on to her current preschool class.


Whilst her key worker and management have always been intuitive and proactive to our

child's development, tailoring tasks according to her capability, they have also been extremely supportive of our feedback and ideas (when I'm being a pushy parent!).


Our friends and family a genuinely amazed by our daughter's knowledge and ability for her age and this is in no small part down to the environment at Serendipitys and the way in which her key workers engage her imagination.


Thanks to Serendipitys we are calm and confident that our child is more than ready for school and thank them for all that they have done.

Both my children have attended Serendipitys Bingham since they were 7 months old and I have to say that it's a fantastic place! The baby room is a calm, safe and loving environment to leave your little ones and the toddler room is full of fun and structured learning which has helped my eldest develop
into a well rounded and confident little lady. The staff are local, friendly, dedicated and leave me safe in the knowledge that my children are happy and being taken care of. I couldn't recommend Serendipitys Bingham highly enough to anyone - I mean where else do they have a purpose built mud kitchen?!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both of my children have been with Serendipity's Bingham since they were 8 months old. They are now 3 years and 2 years old. I cannot thank or praise the girls who care for them enough. My daughter had some issues early on with her walking and the nursery were very supportive with regards to this.


I

feel that both of my children have come on so well whilst being there, their general play, feeding, speech is fantastic and I feel as a working mum I would not have been able to put in the time to get them to the stage they are if I hadn't have put them in Serendipity's. I would definitely recommend this nursery to my friends and family, I would not hesitate to put any other children I have in there either.


Absolutely fantastic - THANK YOU

My son has had an absolute fabulous experience here since Sept last year. We love the care that is given to my son. I like the way I am welcomed every morning, the warm friendly environment. I love the diary dates and all the events planned. It makes me very proud my son is here. I love the menu plan.
My son is always delighted to be staying for tea. Nothing is ever too much hassle. I think the nursery nurses are fantastic, always gave time for a chat. I like the way I can organise care for my son whenever I need it.

Both of my children have been at Serendipity's in Bingham from babies, so I have had a child there for the last 7 years. The staff are brilliant, really accommodating and make you feel like your child is important and individual to them as well as you. The facilities and food are great and there are
always extra trips and activities to support whatever subject they are covering. I would not hesitate to recommend leaving your child with them, it really supports their independence and helps them develop in a safe, loving environment where you don't have to worry about them once they have been dropped off.

My daughter has been attending the nursery since she was 1 and is currently in her final year before school. I have been really impressed with the grounding that nursery has given my daughter in preparation for school. I find all the staff extremely welcoming and helpful, especially first thing in the
morning when I am always greeted with a warm friendly smile. The baby room in particular were fantastic at understanding my child's individual needs and being able to accommodate them. I have been really happy with the nursery and would not hesitate to recommend them to friends and family.

We have two children at Serendipitys and they both absolutely love it! Our son is in the pre school room and is really attached to his key worker who has looked after him for two years now. He has made some lovely little friends and has enjoyed all sorts of different activities such as baking, French
lessons, football workshops, drama, the list goes on! He has come on leaps and bounds in his time at nursery, both socially and academically and we love the termly parents evenings when we can look through his development file and read all the observations they have made.
Our daughter is now in the big baby room and has settled in really well. When she started, we were offered several visits to introduce her slowly to the new environment. Her key person spent lots of time with us, finding out as much as she could about my daughter to help her feel settled and secure.
The best thing about Serendipitys is the nurturing, family atmosphere and that is all down to the wonderful staff. They all work so hard, they are always friendly, polite and helpful, nothing is too much trouble. They all know every single child so well and children are all valued as individuals. We have been really impressed with all the extra activities they organise, such as Halloween evenings, Grandparents afternoons, Mother's Day activity morning, harvest festival, family Christmas lunch, sports days...all great opportunities for families to get involved.
We are so pleased we chose Serendipitys, it is a massive thing to leave your children in someone else's care but we have always felt very confident that they are being very well looked after and are having a fantastic time.

Confident on the day that I left my little boy that he was going to be happy and settled. I knew that if he was upset at any point he would be quickly cheered up and his mind put onto something else. Lovely members of staff who helped him settle in and listened to all my worries and concerns.

My little boy absolutely loves going to nursery and we have trouble getting him to leave.
The staff are always friendly and always make time to chat and are genuinely interested in what the children have been up to out of nursery.
The amount of effort the staff put in at special times of the year
is fantastic and they always make sure the children are involved even if their not in nursery that day which is lovely.
I have to say that his learning has come on in leaps and bounds since starting back in September and the staff always tell you what they've been doing that day. There's always a great atmosphere and I know that when I leave him that he's happy and well looked after and I don't have to worry.

I cannot speak highly enough of the staff at Serendipity's - always welcoming, happy and enthusiastic. Communication is good and I am kept informed of what my daughter has been doing/eating throughout the day - always a wide variety of activities including outside play, soft play and my daughter loves
the new guinea pigs! I really enjoyed having a parents evening and looking through her development folder to see how much she has been doing but the main thing for me is that my daughter is happy to go to there and more often than not, runs straight into her room to play with not so much as a backward glance!

Serendipitys have the most polite, wonderful staff. My oldest child started the school in January, and she has come on so much in the months she's been there. My youngest started in September and she's coming along so well. Everything they do and have done with my children is amazing. I couldn't of
sent them to a better school because Serendipitys is the best pre-school going. The activities are different every week, my oldest always brings home a lovely drawing. I would just like to say a massive Thank you for all the staff for everything you have done and are doing for my children. I'd defiantly recommend your school to family and friends.

Serendipitys is an amazing nursery and were able to accommodate a place for us at short notice
My son has a number of food allergies and the staff have been fantastic, ensuring that he has healthy varied meals.
They treat every child as an individual and they work with parents to develop the children
in fun and exciting ways. A wonderful nursery that I'm sure we will use for many more years to come.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (10.000)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (10.000) out of 10 for Serendipitys Day Nursery & Pre-School Bingham is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 5.000 for Serendipitys Day Nursery & Pre-School Bingham is calculated as follows: ( (335 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 335 Ratings = 5
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Serendipitys Day Nursery & Pre-School Bingham is based on 28 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 95 number of registered child places is 19, which has been reached with 28 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
