Overall Experience

I think that Serendipitys is a really good nursery. All the staff make a real effort to get to know each child and their parents. The staff at the nursery always make you feel welcome and are really polite to you. The staff at the nursery work really hard and well together so that they can give every child in their care the best experience ever.

Review from Lin T (Grandmother of Child) published on 10 February 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
The staff are all good, and look after the children very well. The children spend time outside and are often on walks. They do a lot of messy activities with the children and are always thinking up new things for the children to do.

They are always very willing to help me get the children and their belongings to the car when I collect all three of my grandchildren. All the staff seem to enjoy being at work and the grandchildren love going there.

Review from Emma W (Mother of Child) published on 9 February 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My son loves going to pre-school. He is 4 and started at the nursery when he was 1. He has come on no end, he is above where he should be developmentally and I'm sure most of that is down to the fact he is happy and relaxed in the environment.

Review from Chris C (Father of Child) published on 9 February 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My daughter has been at the nursery since she was nine months old and she has just turned two. Since the start we have always been impressed by all the staff with their friendly and professional manner. They have always been great with her and she is always laughing and smiling when I collect her at the end of the day. The staff have been amazing with helping her development as she is picking up new skills (and showing off others) that she has learnt during her time there. I would highly recommend the manager and her team to anyone looking for someone to take care for their little ones whilst we have to work.

Review from Amanda K (Mother of Child) published on 15 December 2015 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My 2 daughters both attend Serendipitys one in the baby room and one in preschool. They both absolutely love it there and have grown and developed so much from the experiences they have at nursery.

When looking for a nursery place for my now 4 year old we selected Serendipitys because of the enthusiasm and care that the Manager and the team demonstrated when showing us round. In the 4 years she has been attending this has remained the case and It really has a great loving family atmosphere that leaves you with no doubt you are leaving them in safe pairs of hands
