About this price
How funding is applied, how the monthly figure is calculated.More info
- Working parents of children aged 9 months to 2 years can usually claim up to 30 funded hours a week. The working-parent hours depend on each parent meeting the minimum earnings rules and earning under £100,000 a year. This nursery stretches funded hours across 52 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 52 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 21.9 hours are covered each week. Hours beyond this, including the early and late parts of the day, are charged at the standard rate.
- We work out the total cost across the year and divide by 12, so the figure shown is a smoothed monthly average. In practice, nurseries bill in different ways. Some bill monthly at this average. Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

Even before lockdown, Serendipity has been amazing but their care and professionalism over the last year have been incredible. It feels like a family atmosphere among the children, staff and parents which is hard to find. Our three year old has been at Serendipity for two and a half years and has flourished, made friends and had an amazing time. I'd highly recommend Serendipity to any parents, I know they take care of our child like they were one of their own.
My grandchild loves nursery and is very happy here. She is developing well in their care and exceeding her milestones. Wouldn't have her anywhere else.

The team at Serendipitys are absolutely amazing. After looking after my girls for the last seven years, they are like family. The last month has been really challenging for many reasons, but I feel so confident dropping off each day knowing that my youngest is so happy and safe as she runs in with barely a backwards glance. Highly recommended.
Fantastic. Brilliant. Very happy child!
